Filter by:The The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of PLX-PAD single dose, Intra-muscular injection for the treatment of CLI patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of dual intramuscular and intra-arterial autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell implantation for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe peripheral arterial disease in whom amputation was considered the only viable treatment option. Study Hypothesis: Patients with moderate to severe peripheral arterial disease who receive intramuscular and intra-arterial stem cell injections will have improved ankle brachial index (ABI) measurements; relief of rest pain; ulcer healing, if applicable; and absence of major limb amputations.
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether supervised treadmill exercise combined with ranolazine 1000 mg twice daily provides an incremental benefit in absolute walking distance over supervised exercise alone in patients with stable claudication. Investigators also seek to determine if the administration of ranolazine provides a sustained benefit after the completion of a supervised exercise regimen. Lastly, investigators wish to determine whether both exercise and ranolazine improves peak oxygen consumption and anaerobic threshold in patients with stable claudication.
The Jetstream System is a commercially available rotating, aspirating, expandable catheter designed to remove atherosclerotic plaque and blood clots in the lower limbs. The purpose of this study is to use intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) during the interventional procedure to measure the amount of plaque and blood clots removed by the Jetstream System.
BALI (Bone marrow Autograft in Limb Ischemia) is a randomized double-blind trial comparing implantation of bone marrow - mononuclear cells versus placebo in patients presenting with critical leg ischemia and no surgical option. The main end point is the survival without major amputation 6 months after implantation. Biological studies are performed on bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNC) to evaluate their angiogenic properties.
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a disorder that affects more than 8 million people in the United States. As a result of decreased blood flow to the legs, people with PAD may experience leg pain and difficulty with walking. This study will examine the effectiveness of two exercise programs—a treadmill walking program and an aerobic arm exercise program—at increasing walking distance and decreasing leg pain in people with PAD.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the intermediate and long-term effectiveness of stand-alone atherectomy treatment of peripheral arterial disease in the legs.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Scuba™ stent in subjects with symptomatic claudication or rest pain and angiographic confirmation of de novo or restenotic lesions in the common and/or external iliac artery.
Background: Muscle atrophy and reduced leg strength are related to exercise intolerance in patients with intermittent claudication (IC), suggesting that strength training (ST) could improve exercise performance in these patients. Objective: Analyze the effects of ST in walking capacity in patients with IC comparing with walking training (WT) effects. Intervention: Patients were randomized into ST and WT. Both groups trained twice a week, for 12 weeks, at the same rate of perceived exertion. ST consisted of 3 sets of 10 repetitions of whole body exercises. WT consisted of 15 two-minute bouts of walking intercalated with 2 minutes of resting. Measurements: Walking capacity, peak VO2, walking economy, ankle brachial index, ischemic window and knee extension strength
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of autologous transplantation of bone-marrow cells for therapeutic angiogenesis and vasculogenesis in diabetic patients with non-revascularizable critical limb ischemia.
