Filter by:The present study aims to increase Veteran access to supervised exercise therapy and expand its role in improving functional status, quality of life, and cardiovascular risk profile of Veterans with PAD.
A prospective randomized trial designed to compare the efficacy and safety of Sirolimus coated balloon (SCB) versus paclitaxel coated balloon (DCB) in the treatment of femoropopliteal artery stenosis
Collect real-world post-market clinical follow-up data on patients treated with the GORE® VIABAHN® Endoprosthesis with PROPATEN Bioactive Surface (VSX)
The CAmpania REgistry on Peripheral Artery Disease (CARE-PAD) is a single-center observational study which has the purpose to collect clinical, laboratory, instrumental, procedural and follow-up data and to evaluate the outcome of peripheral artery disease (PAD) patients.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a highly prevalent condition affecting up to 10% of Veterans that leads to loss of walking ability and increased risk of amputation. Veterans have limited access to supervised exercise therapy, a facility-based program proven to improve walking ability in PAD, which is poorly attended due to the inconvenience and cost of attending a 12-week program with multiple weekly sessions. This CDA-2 application will investigate the feasibility of home-based exercise therapy (HBET) delivered using mobile health (mHealth) technologies in Veterans with symptomatic PAD. We will partner with the MOVE! program to deliver HBET through group behavioral coaching and a novel wearable activity monitor in a newly proposed program called Smart MOVE!. There is a clear need to provide effective and convenient alternatives to supervised exercise for Veterans with PAD. This study will provide evidence to proceed with Smart MOVE!, a much-needed patient-centered rehabilitation program for Veterans with PAD.
The objective of this prospective, multi-center, single arm study is to obtain further data on the safety and performance of the Acotec Litos&Tulip Drug-coated Balloon catheters in the treatment of lesions in below-the-knee artery.
This study will focus on people with claudication from peripheral arterial disease. The investigators are researching whether a multicomponent therapeutic can increase the production of Nitric Oxide in the blood and whether that leads to an improvement in pain free walking distance and overall physical activity.
Among people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) age 55 and older, the investigators will test the hypothesis that PAD participants randomized to cocoa flavanols will have greater improvement or less decline in six-minute walk distance at six-month follow-up, compared to those randomized to placebo. The study will randomize 190 participants with PAD age 55 and older to one of two groups for six months: cocoa flavanols vs placebo. Our primary outcome is change in six-minute walk distance at six-month follow-up. Secondary outcomes are Actigraph-measured physical activity, brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD), gastrocnemius muscle biopsy measures of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and phosphorylated eNOS, gastrocnemius muscle perfusion (measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) and gastrocnemius muscle characteristics (measured by muscle biopsy). To achieve the specific aims, the study will randomize 190 participants age 55 and older with PAD to one of two groups: cocoa flavanols vs placebo. Participants will be followed for six months.
This study is a prospective, interventional, multicenter 1:1 randomized trial. The trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of the Magic Touch PTA sirolimus drug-coated balloon in comparison to the treatment with POBA (control device) in patients with advanced infrapopliteal artery disease.
VascuQol (VQ) is a specific questionnaire to assess the quality of life of patients with critical limb ischemia which is also used as an index in vascular registries. The original version has 25 items (VQ-25), divided into 5 subscales or domains: pain, symptoms, activity, social and emotional. The shortened version, VascuQol-6 (VQ-6) is made up of 6 questions and 4 possible answers, which score from 1 (worst quality of life perceived by the patient) to 4 (best quality of life perceived by the patient). The total score is between 6 and 24, and a higher value is related to better health. While the VQ-25 questionnaire has been translated and validated in 21 languages, the shortened version VQ-6 has been translated and validated in some languages, not including Spanish. As it is a fast and easy-to-use tool iwhich has demonstrated statistical validation to measure PAD in other versions of the same questionnaire (other languages), a cross-cultural adaptation and statistical validation of the questionnaire from English to Spanish will be carried out.
