Filter by:In our research, we are delving into whether taking MitoQ for six months can improve the symptoms and function of people diagnosed with peripheral artery disease, especially those who suffer from leg pain while walking, known as intermittent claudication. We will be checking if MitoQ helps people with claudication walk better, be more active every day, feel better about their lives, and if it enhances the health of their leg muscles.
The ENLIGHTEN PAD Trial will collect preliminary data to test whether daily 660 nm light treatment of the lower extremities immediately before home-based walking exercise sessions improves six-minute walk distance at 4-month follow-up, compared to sham light, in people with lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD).
The objective of the proposed study is to define independent parameters for the diagnostic assessment of the perfusion situation of the gluteal muscle based on multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) in patients with gluteal claudication in Fontaine stage II (intermittent claudication) pre and post-intervention.
Objective: To assess the clinical efficacy of different compression methods within 48 hours after endovenous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in terms of great saphenous vein closure rate, postoperative complications, quality of life, time to return to normal work, and patient satisfaction.
Patients with PAD having superficial femoral artery (SFA) occlusion were consecutively enrolled. Demographic data and medical history were taken. Physical examination and duplex ultrasound were performed.
The objective of this study is to establish reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the Golazo® Peripheral Atherectomy System when used as indicated in 159 subjects with symptomatic infrainguinal peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in up to 15 investigational sites in the U.S.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD), vascular disease of atheromatous origin, is a frequent pathology, with a steady and significant increase in prevalence over the last decades. It has various symptoms ranging from mild arterial claudication to critical limb ischemia. The critical ischaemia stage in PAD is defined by rest pain or trophic disorders and is a special situation because of the number of cardiovascular deaths at 1 year (25%), 60% at 5 years and acute ischaemic recurrence at 1 year (25%). It is a medico-surgical pathology. A haemodynamic marker is needed to monitor patients, as it is predictive of limb progression, cardiovascular events and mortality. The Systolic Rise Time (SRT) of the plantar footpad is a recently described haemodynamic measurement of proven value in the diagnosis of PAD. The aim of this study is to show the prognostic value of the Systolic Rise Time on Major Adverse Limb Events (MALE).
Peripheral arterial disease is one of the most common clinical conditions associated with cardiovascular morbidity and increased mortality, requiring exercise, antiaggregant and surgical revascularization therapy. As in peripheral arterial surgery, postoperative hypothermia is common in patients who have undergone surgical intervention and the duration of surgery is longer than 30 minutes due to the low temperature of the surgical environment or the suppression of the thermoregulation center by anesthetics and sedatives. With hypothermia, heat loss increases,peripheral vasoconstriction with activation of the sympathetic system, impaired perfusion at the surgical wound site, hypoxemia, coagulopathy, bleeding, postoperative pain, deterioration of thermal comfort, deterioration of patient comfort and prolonged hospital stay are reported. Many heating methods are used to achieve and maintain normal body temperature in the postoperative period, to prevent complications caused by hypothermia.Aluminum-coated thermal blankets are especially preferred. In this way, heat preservation, peripheral vasodilation and perfusion with the effect of temperature, reduction of muscle spasm with increased endorphin release, less pain, and increased comfort of the patient are provided. The thermal blanket is an easy-to-apply material that does not require any tools or electricity for its effectiveness and can come into direct contact with the patient's skin. It provides thermal insulation with its ability to reflect thermal radiation. Peripheral vasodilation and decreased peripheral vascular resistance have been observed with thermal therapy provided by thermal blankets. It is known that thermal blanket methods are used to warm patients in practice. However, the lack of a literature study on the regional effect of these applications on the patient has been noticed. For this purpose, in this study, the regional efficacy of thermal blankets on the patient was evaluated in order to reduce the narrowed arterial lumen and increased peripheral vascular resistance in peripheral arterial diseases and to prevent the vasoconstrictive effect of hypothermia on peripheral vessels. It was predicted that these blankets would maintain heat, increase tissue perfusion with peripheral vasodilation effect, facilitate circulation, reduce pain and facilitate mobilization.In line with this aim, the objectives are; - To increase peripheral tissue perfusion and decrease neurovascular damage by using thermal blankets for heating after peripheral arterial surgery. - To reduce the degree of surgical wound site and ischemic pain by using thermal blankets for warming after peripheral arterial surgery. - To increase the patient's postoperative mobility and mobilization by using thermal blankets in peripheral artery postoperative warming. - To contribute to the control of pain, neurovascular follow-up and reduction of damage and mobilization, which are the main nursing goals after surgery. - To increase the comfort of the patient by utilizing the heat insulation and flexible effect of thermal blankets, thus providing an easy-to-apply, effective care in terms of nursing and increasing the quality of health care service. Research Design This study is a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of a thermal blanket applied to the area after peripheral arterial surgery on the patient's circulation, pain and mobilization.
This single-center, 400-patient, randomized controlled trial assesses the impact of a patient- and provider-facing EPIC Best Practice Advisory (BPA; alert-based computerized decision support tool) to increase guideline-directed utilization of statin and statin-alternative oral LDL-C lowering therapies in patients with PAD who are not being prescribed LDL-C-lowering therapy.
The objective of the study is to evaluate early safety and effectiveness of the percutaneous deep foot venous arterialization performed in clinical practice, in an unselected population of patients with "no-option" CLTI.
