Filter by:Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor, more frequently clopidogrel, represents the standard of care for the long-term secondary prevention of atherothrombotic events in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) or peripheral arterial disease (PAD). However, rates of ischemic recurrences remain high. Vorapaxar is a protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 inhibitor, which exerts potent inhibition of thrombin-mediated platelet aggregation. Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are known to be at increased risk of recurrent atherothrombotic events, which translates into worse outcomes, despite the use of standard of care therapy. This is in part due to the hyperreactive platelet phenotype, which characterizes DM patients, and to inadequate response to oral antiplatelet agents, including clopidogrel. Therefore, vorapaxar is an attractive treatment option for DM patients with a prior MI. The pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of vorapaxar in DM patients and how these may differentiate from non-DM patients has not been explored. Further, the role of vorapaxar as part of a dual antithrombotic treatment regimen combined with clopidogrel (and stopping aspirin) represents another important area of clinical interest. The proposed prospective, parallel-design study conducted in patients post-MI or with PAD with and without DM will aim the assess the pharmacodynamic effects of vorapaxar in addition to standard DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel as well as in combination with clopidogrel only following aspirin withdrawal.
There are two ways of approaching atherosclerotic chronic occlusive femoro-popliteal arterial lesion with guide wire. One is the intraluminal approach of passing guide wire through the atheroma, the other is the subintimal approach of passing wire through the subintima of the vessel. Either of these two interventional technique can be chosen depending on the character of the lesions they have their own pros and cons which affects the success of the intervention. The study is limited to retrospective studies to which interventional technique is better for post-procedural recurrence rate, however there is no prospective randomized controlled study.
To investigate the efficacy of the administration of JVS-100 delivered via direct intramuscular injections on a 3 month and 6 month composite endpoint of wound progression, healing and limb loss in patients with severe peripheral arterial disease with non-healing chronic wounds who undergo an open bypass grafting or endovascular procedure for treatment of infrapopliteal disease and are dosed within 12 days and 3 months following the procedure.
The objective of the ISR 14-04 study is to evaluate post-market safety and effectiveness of GORE® VIABAHN® Endoprosthesis for treatment of In-Stent Restenosis of the Superficial Femoral Artery.
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the novel Luminor® paclitaxel drug-eluting balloon (iVascular, S.L.U., Barcelona, Spain) in inhibiting restenosis and in ensuring long-term patency.
The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the outcomes and safety of the Paclitaxel-eluted balloon catheter ELUTAX SV for treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in below-the-knee vessels
This is a feasibility pilot study to evaluate the impact of local delivery of Yamani-15/5 (combination of L-Lactic acid 15% and D-Gluconic acid 5%) on vascular calcification of lower extremities in patients with severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD) who were deemed to have unreconstructable arterial disease and who have already been scheduled to undergo limb amputation (below knee or above knee amputation).
This proposed study will determine whether a home-based exercise intervention that avoids continuous supervision and exercise-related ischemic pain improves walking performance at 52-week follow-up in people with PAD, compared to an attention control group and compared to a high intensity exercise intervention. In our secondary aims, we will determine whether high intensity exercise improves six-minute walk distance as compared to the attention control group. In secondary aims, we will also determine whether low intensity exercise and high intensity home-based exercise, respectively, improve patient reported outcomes, physical activity, and treadmill walking performance compared to attention control. Our intervention directly addresses two aspects of current practice guidelines that are major barriers to exercise for patients with PAD: 1) the recommendation for supervised exercise and 2) the recommendation for high intensity ischemic-pain inducing walking exercise.
The aim of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Multi-LOC® peripheral stent system to treat de novo and restenotic lesions (no in-stent restenosis (ISR), no restenosis post drug coated balloon (DCB) after flow limiting plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) and/or DCB dilatations in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and popliteal segments (P1, P2 & P3)
Anesthesia reduces blood pressure and cerebral blood flow is normally considered to be maintained despite marked changes in blood pressure. Vascular surgical patients are often elderly, have high blood pressure and atherosclerosis and in these patients cerebral blood flow may decrease if blood pressure is reduced during anesthesia. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of blood pressure for preservation of cerebral blood flow during anesthesia in vascular surgery. The hypothesis is that in vascular surgical patients, during anesthesia, cerebral blood flow is higher with blood pressure maintained at a higher level than that used in normal clinical practice.
