Filter by:Objective of the REAL PTX trial is to compare paclitaxel-eluting stents to paclitaxel-eluting balloons for treating symptomatic peripheral artery disease of the femoropopliteal artery.
The objective of the study is to establish the safety profile of Intramuscular PLX-PAD injections and to evaluate the clinical efficacy of it in IC subjects comprising of 4 treatment groups: 1. Double treatment of PLX-PAD low dose 2. Double treatment of PLX-PAD high dose 3. Double treatment of Placebo 4. Single treatment of PLX-PAD high dose and additional treatment of Placebo. Subjects will receive the assigned treatment twice to the affected leg, within 12-weeks interval between each treatment. The study will be comprised of 5 stages: Screening period of up to 4 weeks,first treatment of PLX-PAD or placebo followed by additional injection after 12 weeks and with follow-up of 12 months post second injection
BIOFLEX-I EU is the European arm of the BIOFLEX-I IDE study (NCT01319812). Data from BIOFLEX-I EU will be pooled with data in the IDE. The objective of this study is to separately demonstrate the clinical performance of BIOTRONIK's Astron and Pulsar-18 stents in the European arm of the BIOFLEX-I IDE (NCT01319812). The Pulsar-18 stent will be used for the treatment of femoro-popliteal lesions, located in the native superficial femoral artery (SFA) or proximal popliteal artery (PPA), while the Astron stent will be used for the treatment of the common or external iliac artery lesions.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of the Drug Eluting Balloon (DEB) technology for the treatment of the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) ischemic obstructive vascular disease in patients presenting with long lesions. As secondary aim this study is going to explore treatment effect on a number of procedural and clinical endpoints in order to collect information to design a future comparative effectiveness study.
The purpose of this study is to test the routine faisibility of a questionnaire to estimate walking impairment(The WELCH questionnaire) in patients investigated for suspected PAD.
The purpose of the study is to collect additional safety and efficacy information on the Lutonix (formerly Moxy) Drug Coated Balloon for treatment of stenosis or occlusion of the femoral and popliteal arteries.
The purpose of this study is to determine if it is safe and feasible to apply PRT-201 to the adventitia of arteries following successful angioplasty (PTA).
NOR-SYS is a clinical research program about young ischemic stroke patients from 15 to 60 years. Patients, partners and the couple´s adult children who are at least 18 years old, are all invited to ultrasound examinations due to a standardized protocol. Parents of patients and partners are invited to return their answers of standardized questionnaires about clinical ischemic events such as stroke, angina or myocardial infarction or peripheral artery disease. Study inclusion time of patients and their families is 5 years. A biobank is build from samples from patients, partners and adult children. Clinical follow-ups for patients and partners are planned after 5, 10 and 15 years. Clinical follow-ups for adult children are planned after 10 and 20 years. Hypotheses: What do patients know about their parents clinical ischemic events? How much established pathology in arteries do we find by a standardized ultrasound protocol at the time of ischemic stroke at a young age? Differences concerning risk factors and ultrasound findings between patients and partners? Differences between children from families with several ischemic events among parents and grandparents vs. children from families without ischemic events? Biochemical markers related to ultrasound findings and artery disease.
Stimulation of arterial inflow to the lower limb is important to obtain functional improvement in peripheral artery diseased (PAD) patients with claudication. The clinical effect of muscle stimulation to increase arterial inflow and the direct evaluation of the regional blood flow impairment (RBFI) in the area of stimulation, have not been evaluated in PAD patients. Fifteen adult patients with stable arterial claudication will participate. Recruitment will be performed among patients referred for exercise oxymetry (treadmill: 3.2km.h-1, 10% slope) After two minutes of rest, the gastrocnemius will be stimulated for 20 minutes at an increasing frequency rate with 5 min steps (1 Hz, 1.25 Hz, 1.5 Hz and 1.75 Hz) on the most symptomatic side. The investigators record the tcpo2 value, arterial blood inflow with ultrasound of the femoral artery, and near infra-red spectrometry (NIRS) on both sides. Patients will be instructed to report eventual contraction-induced pain in the stimulated calf.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and performance of the balloon-expandable Zeus CC (Rontis AG) stent for the treatment of Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC) A, B, C and D iliac lesions.
