Filter by:The main objective of the study is to survey and improve the IVUS image quality and X-ray system interoperability by collecting Procedural Data (e.g. raw, pre- processed ultrasound and X-ray data, endpoints such as fluoroscopy time, contrast load and radiation dose, workflow details) during routine intravascular procedures to assure adherence to the high standards of quality during care delivery and promote procedural standardization.
The objective of this study is to obtain outcomes following dissection repair with the Tack Endovascular System in a broad population of patients undergoing endovascular treatment of lesions within the superficial femoral, popliteal, peroneal, and/or tibial arteries.
Sympathetic overactivity partly promotes the development of peripheral artery disease which mainly leads to ischemia of the lower limbs. Endovascular arterial denervation (ED) is a minimally invasive technique which could deliver Radiofrequency energy by a multi-electrode catheter to the Lower limb artery to restore Sympathetic activity. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of multi-electrode radiofrequency ablation system on lower limb ischemia with PAD.
Participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at a higher risk of developing atherosclerotic peripheral artery disease (PAD). Retention of uremic toxins such as indoxyl sulfate (IS), p-cresyl sulfate (PCS) and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) during CKD is detrimental to endothelial and vascular function and can predispose to the development and progression of PAD. Many of the uremic toxins originate from gut microbial metabolism. Removal of these uremic toxins by carbonaceous oral adsorbent is beneficial, slowing down the deterioration of renal function and delaying the need for dialysis in CKD patients. However, if carbonaceous oral adsorbent could also improve vascular function and clinical outcomes in CKD patients with established PAD, remains unknown. In this proposal, the investigators aim to determine the therapeutic impact of a carbonaceous oral adsorbent made of activated bamboo charcoal (ABC) with/without probiotics on the endothelial/vascular function, CV outcome and mortality in CKD patients with PAD. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that circulating long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) expression profiles and metabolome may serve as a sensitive and reliable biomarker to predict the adverse CV outcomes and death in CKD patients with established PAD. In addition, it is hypothesized that circulating lncRNAs and linked to adverse CV outcomes in CKD patients with PAD are associated with dysbiosis of gut microbiota. The investigators also hypothesize that the administration of ABC could normalize the dysbiosis of gut microbiota, dysregulated circulating lncRNAs and metabolome that are linked to adverse CV/limb outcomes in CKD patients with PAD. This will be a prospective, randomized, open-labeled, blinded end-point trial for 6 months, followed by integrated assessment of endothelial/vascular function, changes in conventional athero- and inflammation-relevant biomarkers, circulating long noncoding RNAs, metabolome, and gut microbiota at baseline, ends of the 3rd and 6th month, as well as clinical CV, renal and limb outcomes up to 3 years.

The study objectives of this projects are to examine the hypothesis that the sympathetic and blood pressure responses to exercise will be attenuated during and after heat exposure in patients with peripheral artery disease, via altering the sensitivity of the muscle afferent receptors.
This study will investigate the efficacy of G-CSF mobilized mononuclear cell injection of patients with PAD who presented with no-option CLI. Forty no-option CLI patients who presented with rest pain, non-healing ischemic ulcer or gangrene will be randomized into 2 groups. The control group will be treated by medication and supportive treatment. The experiment group will be injected G-CSF mobilized mononuclear cell ,medication. Amputation free survival,Ankle brachial index(ABI), Toe brachial index (TBI) and transcutaneous oxygen measurement will be evaluated at the day of randomization, 1 , 3, 6 and 12 months.
This study will investigate the efficacy of G-CSF mobilized mononuclear cell injection of patients with PAD who presented with intermittent claudication. Forty PAD patients who presented with intermittent claudication will be randomized into 2 groups. The control group will be treated by medication and walking exercise 3 times/ week. The experiment group will be injected G-CSF mobilized mononuclear cell ,medication and walking exercise 3 times/ week. Ankle brachial index(ABI), Toe brachial index (TBI) and transcutaneous oxygen measurement will be evaluated at the day of randomization, 1 , 3, 6 and 12 months
Lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans is due to the formation of atherosclerotic plaque in the lower extremities, resulting in the stenosis and occlusion of the artery, leading to chronic ischemia of the limbs. Although bypass surgery and angioplasty ( or interventional therapy ) are effective methods for vascular treatment in patients with PAD to revascularize, a significant proportion of patients with the arterial disease are not eligible for direct arterial surgery. Meanwhile, there are many patients who suffer from diffuse arterial disease or severe peripheral disease not suitable for interventional therapy. Stimulation of arteriogenesis( blood bypassing the occluded arteries through a large number of collateral vessels ) and angiogenesis ( generating new small blood vessels ) have become the focus of research. Our recombinant SeV-hFGF2/dF injection (R&D code BF30 ) uses the human basic fibroblast growth factor ( FGF2 ) gene to express the target protein FGF2 locally by intramuscular injection. The preparation can efficiently express FGF2 in infected cells and secrete it to the periphery and be fixed in the intercellular substance. Since FGF2 is in the upstream regulatory pathway of VEGF, HGF and other factors, it can regulate the coordinated expression of these cytokines related to the growth and function of new blood vessels, and finally, produce mature blood vessels. To evaluate the safety ( tolerance), pharmacokinetics (PK), biological activity, and immunogenicity of BF30 in patients with lower extremity arterial occlusive disease, and to explore clinical benefits. MAIN OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety ( tolerability ) of single-dose BF30 in patients with lower extremity arterial occlusive disease, and to provide evidence for the dose of subsequent clinical trials. Secondary objective: To explore the pharmacokinetics (PK), biological activity, the immunogenicity of BF30, and to initially explore clinical benefits.
The study is aimed at collecting preliminary safety and efficacy data related to the use of Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) technology for the treatment of symptomatic Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) ischemic vascular disease in patients presenting with long lesions. The present clinical evaluation is intended as a prospective observational data collection of patient treatment in full accordance with institution standard practice and utilizing an approved (CE marked) DCB currently available on the market.
