Filter by:The purpose of the study is to obtain data regarding safety and efficacy of drug-eluting balloon luminor 14 & luminor 35 in the treatment of infrainguinal occlusive lesions (superficial femoral artery (SFA), popliteal artery (PA) and tibial arteries (ATs)) and restenosis from prior endovascular procedures in this sector.
Magnesium exerts analgesic effects in several animal pain models and in patients affected by acute postoperative pain and chronic pain of neuropathic origin. There is no evidence that magnesium can modulate pain in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD). We describe the protocol of a single-center randomized double-blind clinical trial aimed at assessing the efficacy of oral magnesium supplementation in controlling severe pain in patients with advanced PAOD.
This study will assess the benefit of a neuromuscular electrical stimulation device in patients suffering from symptoms and effects of lower limb intermittent claudication.
Current evidence cannot explain the clinical features of peripheral arterial disease only from the principle of reduced blood flow. Explanations have therefore in addition been linked to mitochondrial dysfunction of skeletal muscles. This study will elucidate whether there is a relation between clinical variables of the different levels of arterial insufficiency in peripheral arterial disease and mitochondrial respiratory capacity.
The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate short versus long duration dual antiplatelet therapy in patients undergoing lower extremity endovascular revascularization.
Elastic compression stockings are recommended in the treatment venous insufficiency. Degressive compressive stockings have been used for many decades and are characterized by a high pressure applied at the ankle and a decreasing pressure from the ankle to the knee. Progressive compressive stockings were developed to have a maximal pressure at the calf. This concept is based on the calf pump role in the venous return. Patients with PAD (Peripheral Arterial Disease) often suffer from venous insufficiency. But elastic compression stockings are strictly contraindicated for patients with PAD because highest pressures on ankle could slow down the superficial microcirculation. On patients with PAD and venous insufficiency, the progressive compressive stockings could be well indicated. Strongest pressure at the calf should increase the pump effect and the muscle mechanical efficiency during the walk without deleterious effect.
This is a randomized, open-label, single & multiple-dose, parallel study to investigate the effect of cilostazol on the disposition of simvastatin & pravastatin in healthy male volunteers
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the short-term (up to 12 months) outcome of treatment by means of the self-expanding iVolution nitinol stent in symptomatic (Rutherford 2-4) femoropopliteal arterial stenotic or occlusive lesions.
This study will assess the adjuvant benefit of a neuromuscular electrical stimulation device to standard treatment of supervised exercise in patients suffering from symptoms and effects of lower limb Intermittent Claudication.
The WHISH trial applies state-of-the science behavioral principles and currently available technologies to deliver a physical activity intervention without face-to-face contact to ~25,000 older U.S. women expected to consent. It includes the National Institute of Aging (NIA) Go4Life® Exercise & Physical Activity materials 3 and WHISH developed targeted materials based on Go4Life® to provide inspirational tips and recommendations about how to achieve nationally recommended levels of PA and overcome barriers to exercise, with a means for self-monitoring and setting personal goals. The intervention builds upon evidence-based behavioral science principles and intervention components that have proven to be effective in increasing PA in older women, with innovative adaptive approaches to tailoring the delivery to meet individual (personal) needs.
