Filter by:The objective of the proposed investigation is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Merlin's DiVeRt system for the treatment of intracranial lesions. Merlin is a manufacturer of Flow- Diverters (FD) for Neurovascular applications. The technology is based on a microporous polymer membrane which is delivered to the site of lesion treatment using a metal stent scaffold. The first device in its FD family is the XCalibur Aneurysm Occlusion Device (AOD) system, which is delivered on a rapid-exchange balloon catheter which goes in a 6-Fr guide-catheter. The AOD is CE-marked and has been involved in the treatment of over 70 clinical lesion/aneurysm cases. The same technology is now being made available in a self-expandable stent platform delivered on a 0.028" microcatheter. Merlin has performed the required in-silico, in-vitro and in-vivo tests to be confident of the device performance and now intends to proceed to the human clinical-trials. DiVeRt (Interventional) is a non CE mark device. The device is under clinical trial phase. The competent authority submission for the study has been completed in Spain, Turkey and Hungary.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a degenerative vascular disease, which is typically asymptomatic until rupture, resulting in high mortality. AAAs are more prevalent in men over age 65, though rupture is disproportionately higher in women. Due to nonlinear and unpredictable aortic dilatation, it is challenging to predict the AAA rupture using clinical diagnostics based on morphology. No medical therapy is used clinically to treat AAA, and there is an unmet need for clinically translatable, molecular biomarkers of AAA disease activity for surveillance and patient-specific management. The goal of this proposal is to develop a new approach for the diagnosis and targeted therapy of AAA.
This study aims to determine the inter- and intra-variability of Transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound in neuro-critical care patients who are planned for consecutive daily TCD evaluations.
Cerus Endovascular is sponsoring a prospective, multi-center PMCF to document the safety and performance of the Contour Neurovascular System™ (hereinafter "Contour") in normal medical use.
The protocol has many assets. A prospective nationwide recruitment allows for the inclusion of a large cohort of patients with UIA. It will combine accurate clinical phenotyping and comprehensive imaging with CAWE screening. Besides, it will enable to exploit metadata and to explore new pathophysiological pathways of interest by crossing clinical, genetic, biological, and imaging information.
The purpose of the study is to describe Sodium Fluoride uptake (using Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography - PET-CT) following Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) and to determine whether Sodium Fluoride PET-CT can predict the development of endoleaks.
IMPACT is an observational, post market study designed to provide an ongoing safety and performance evaluation of Stryker Neurovascular devices used for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms with an endovascular approach.
The aim of our study is to analyze the immediate and long-term results between patients undergoing hemiarch replacement with ACP under mild hypothermic (30-32 °C) circulatory arrest versus moderate hypothermic (26-28 °C) circulatory arrest. It is hypothesized that circulatory arrest using mild hypothermia (30-32°C) and uSACP will result in complications reduction, during aortic hemiarch replacement, when compared to moderate hypothermia (26-28°C) and uSACP. For this purpose all of the patient population will be randomized into 2 groups. The first group of the patients during aortic hemiarch replacement, mild hypothermia (30-32°C) will be used during circulatory arrest. The second group of the patients during aortic hemiarch replacement, moderate hypothermia (26-28°C) will be used during circulatory arrest.
This device was designed to assist in the stent-assisted coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms, specifically those that have a wide neck that would not otherwise maintain the coil embolization material within the aneurysm because of the wide opening at the base of the aneurysm. This device was designed to treat aneurysms that are: unruptured, wide-necked, intracranial, saccular aneurysms arising from a parent vessel ≥ 2 mm and ≤ 4.5 mm. Wide-necked was defined as having a neck > 4mm or dome-to-neck ratio < 2.
The purpose of this study is to assess the extent of thrombosis in the Zenith Alpha Spiral-Z® stent graft.
