    Abstract Objective: In conjunction with appropriate wound care, negative pressure wound therapy with instillation and dwell time (NPWTi-d) may be used as an adjunct therapy for acute or hard-to-heal (chronic) wounds, especially when infected. However, there are very few data on the use of NPWTi-d in the treatment of fibrinous wounds that are difficult to debride mechanically. The main objective of this study was to describe changes in the fibrin area of such wounds, before and after treatment with NPWTi-d.
    Method: This was a monocentric, observational, prospective pilot study evaluating the NPWTi-d medical device. Eligible patients included in the study were those with hard-to-heal lower limb ulcers who had previously undergone unsuccessful specific debridement treatment for their wound, with failure of manual mechanic debridement for at least six weeks' duration, and whose wounds had a fibrinous surface area of >70% of the total wound surface area. The primary endpoint was the difference in the percentage of fibrinous surface area before and after treatment.
    Results: A total of 14 patients who received treatment for lower limb ulcers between October 2017 and August 2019 were included in the study. There was a significant shrinkage rate of the fibrinous wound surface between the start and end of treatment (83.6±14.5% and 32.2±19.7%, respectively; p<0.001).
    Conclusion: This study showed a significant decrease in fibrin area in wounds treated with NPWTi-d, with good tolerance. We believe that NPWTi-d has its place in the multidisciplinary management of patients with hard-to-heal ulcers. Additional randomised studies are required to confirm these findings.

    Abstract Objective: Investigate shear wave elastography (SWE) and quantitative ultrasound (QUS) parameters in patients hospitalized for lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
    Method: Sixteen patients with DVT were recruited and underwent SWE and radiofrequency data acquisitions for QUS on day 0, day 7, and day 30 after the beginning of symptoms, in both proximal and distal zones of the clot identified on B-mode scan. SWE and QUS features were computed to differentiate between thrombi at day 0, day 7, and day 30 following treatment with heparin or oral anticoagulant. The Young's modulus from SWE was computed, as well as QUS homodyned K-distribution (HKD) parameters reflecting blood clot structure. Median and interquartile range of SWE and QUS parameters within clot were taken as features.
    Results: In the proximal zone of the clot, the HKD ratio of coherent-to-diffuse backscatter median showed a significant decrease from day 7 to day 30 (P = .036), while the HKD ratio of diffuse-to-total backscatter median presented a significant increase from day 7 to day 30 (P = .0491). In the distal zone of the clot, the HKD normalized intensity of the echo envelope median showed a significant increase from day 0 to day 30 (P = .0062). No SWE features showed statistically significant differences over time. Nonetheless, a trend of lower median of Young's modulus within clot for patients who developed a pulmonary embolism was observed.
    Conclusion: QUS features may be relevant to characterize clot's evolution over time. Further analysis of their clinical interpretation and validation on a larger dataset would deserve to be studied.

    Title translation Prévalence et sévérité de l’artériopathie oblitérante des membres inférieurs chez les patients atteints d’escarre talonnière : étude rétrospective de 42 patients.
    Abstract Heel pressure ulcer is a major complication in elderly hospitalized patients. The association with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) which is also a frequent disease in this population is poorly known. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of PAD and critical limb ischemia (CLI) in patients with heel pressure ulcer. Patients referred to the vascular medicine department for heel pressure ulcer from October 2014 to June 2015 were included in the study. The assessment of peripheral arterial disease was made with the results of ankle brachial index and/or doppler ultra sound of lower limb arteries. Toe systolic pressure and transcutaneous pressure (TcPO2) were also recorded, and the diagnosis of critical limb ischemia was made according to the TASC 2 criteria. The population was composed with 42 patients (women 43%, men 57%). The mean age was 81±11 years. Heel pressures ulcers were diagnosed in the following situations: lower limb fracture (31%), acute medical illness (21%), multiple chronic conditions (28%) and critical care unit hospitalization (7%). A peripheral arterial disease was present in 31 patients (73%), and a critical limb ischemia in 7 patients. For 18 patients, PAD was not known in their past medical history, and this was the case of 5 patients among those with critical limb ischemia. A revascularization was performed in 12 patients, and 5 patients undergo a lower limb amputation. 12 patients were died at 3 months. PAD is frequent among patients with heel pressure ulcer, and is often unknown. The functional and vital prognostic are poor, and the results of our study emphasize the importance of screening PAD in the evaluation of heel pressure ulcer risk.

    Abstract Introduction: Risk scores for the prediction of haemorrhage are poorly predictive of major bleeding. The aim of this study was to refine the estimation of bleeding risk by identifying one or several parameters of prognostic significance among these algorithms.
    Materials and methods: The SCORE study was a prospective, multicentre cohort study conducted in France in 2009-2010. Patients were eligible if they had received vitamin K antagonist (VKA) for any therapeutic indication for at least 3months. The primary outcome was the occurrence of major bleeding at 1-year follow-up.
    Results: In total, 962 patients were included in this study and evaluated at 1year. The incidence of major bleeding at 1-year follow-up (Kaplan-Meier method) was 2.9% [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.9-4.2]. The rate of major bleeding was 8.2% (95 CI 3.4-16.2) per year in patients classified as high risk by at least four scores. In a multivariate Cox analysis, of the risk factors for the different scores, only anaemia <100g/l at inclusion was strongly associated with risk of major bleeding (hazard ratio 6.1, 95% CI 2.7-13.8, P<0.0001). Through an induction tree analysis performed to identify a common parameter in the majority of scores, anaemia was found to be the main predictor of correct classification as high risk by at least four scores (55% of patients classified as high risk by at least four scores vs 3.3% in the absence of anaemia).
    Conclusion: Anaemia with haemoglobin <100g/l is the most important predictor of high risk of bleeding in patients treated with VKA.
