Filter by:Investigators plan to characterize systemic inflammation and circulating immune cells in participants with moderate and severe calcific aortic valve disease and matched healthy controls.
The aim of this retrospective, multicenter study is to demonstrate that the use of EndoNaut for aortoiliac endovascular procedures has a clinical impact for the patient (reduction in irradiation and the volume of contrast product) as well as for the nursing staff (reduction irradiation) compared to procedures performed without EndoNaut.
This is a prospective, randomized clinical trial of patients undergoing 1-level lateral lumbar spinal fusion. This study seeks to randomize patients indicated for Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (LLIF) into one of two groups: direct decompression and indirect decompression.
A retrospective, multinational, multicentre, observational study in patients presenting with native severe aortic valve stenosis and treated with Myval™ Transcatheter Heart Valve Series in real-world setting.
This is a prospective, single center study which applies a standardized, comprehensive catheterization assessment to patients with a known or suspected diagnosis of pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) who are undergoing a cardiac catheterization at Boston Children's Hospital. As part of the assessment, each pulmonary vein will undergo angiography (pictures using moving x-rays and contrast dye), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS; pictures of the vein wall using a catheter inside the vein), pressure assessment and compliance testing. The status of each pulmonary vein will then be assessed 12 months after the catheterization (i.e. no disease, severe disease, etc.). Using statistics, the investigators will determine which patient and vein characteristics (obtained at the of catheterization) can predict whether or not a pulmonary vein will have disease. The investigators hypothesize that this comprehensive, standardized, invasive assessment of pediatric intraluminal PVS can predict vein outcome.
RO-TAVI is a national prospective, observational, multi-center registry registry of patients with aortic valve stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) to assess patient care and outcomes.
The photographical and functional parameters of paravertebral muscle in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis will be measured to investigate the correlation between paravertebral muscle degeneration and symptoms and prognosis of patients.By measuring the parameters of paravertebral muscle with normal people, the differences between the patients and normal people will be compared to establish an appropriate paravertebral muscle evaluation method.
Define the actual incidence of tracheal stenosis in patients who underwent either prolonged intubation or tracheostomy and to compare incidence, clinical course and outcome between COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 patients.
This is a retrospective, observational cohort study carried out in two operative Units of the University Hospital of Modena (Italy): the Diagnostic and Interventional Bronchoscopy Unit (Unit A) and the Otolaryngology Unit (Unit B). The two units have different protocols routinely applied to treat tracheal benign stenosis. In Unit A, endoscopic treatment is performed through mechanical dilatation via rigid bronchoscopy and further stent placing while in Unit B the endoscopic treatment is performed through balloon dilatation via direct laryngoscopy. The primary purpose was to compare the efficacy of the two technique on tracheal stenosis treatment over time. Patients were defined as "cured" if during the 2 years after 12 months since the last intervention they did not present any of the following: respiratory symptoms, need for a re-intervention or stenosis instability.
The aim of the study is to investigate if lesion preparation with a ScoreFlex balloon compared to a standard non-compliant balloon improve vascular healing and minimize lumen reduction after implantation of a Magmaris bioresorbable scaffold.
