Filter by:Intermittent claudication afflicts 5% of the US population older than 55 years of age and develops along with hardening of the arteries of the legs. Claudicating patients limp and can only walk very short distances because their legs hurt. This protocol evaluates the mechanisms that may produce the leg dysfunction of claudication and its successful completion can ultimately produce significant new diagnostic and treatment strategies for the care of claudicating patients.
The primary objective of the VBX13-05 clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of VIABAHN BX for the treatment of arterial occlusive disease in patients with de novo or restenotic lesions in the common and/or external iliac arteries.
1. The number and function of circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are inversely associated with coronary risk factors and atherosclerotic diseases such as PAOD. 2. This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the effects of cilostazol on human early EPCs and angiogenesis as well as the potential mechanisms of action in patients with mild-to-moderate PAOD.
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a clinical setting characterized by an exceptionally high risk for cardiovascular events. Oxidative stress seems to play a role in impairing flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and contributing to atherosclerosis in patients with PAD. Cocoa seems to exert artery dilatation via oxidative stress inhibition. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether in PAD patients, dark chocolate elicits artery dilatation via down-regulation of NOX2, the catalytic core of NADPH oxidase.
A study to see what effect the geko™ device has on blood flow in patients with lower limb vascular disease.
IVUS imaging will be utilized to assess performance of the Sponsor's Orbital Atherectomy System (OAS) followed by adjunctive balloon angioplasty (BA) in patients who have symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) occurring in the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA), Popliteal (POP), and/or Tibioperoneal Trunk (TPT).
A non-randomized, prospective, global clinical trial of the Avinger Pantheris System, an atherectomy device that provides directional visualization and imaging as an adjunct to fluoroscopy to aid removal of plaque in diseased lower extremity arteries.
To assess the safety of performing a percutaneous fem-pop bypass using the PQ Bypass Guidewire Delivery System and commercially available stent grafts.
The objective of this study is to examine the feasibility of using a collaborative-care, home-based rehabilitation program to improve functional outcomes for people recovering from lower limb amputation caused by vascular problems and/or diabetes complications. The primary hypothesis is that the rehabilitation program will result in greater improvements in performance-based and participant-reported measures of physical function, compared to standard of care after outpatient rehabilitation.
Cohort 1: Single-Arm, multicenter study to continue to assess the safety and performance of the Stellarex 035 Drug Coated Balloon (formerly known as the Cardiovascular Ingenuity (CVI) Paclitaxel-Coated PTA Balloon Catheter) in the treatment of de novo or restenotic lesions in the superficial femoral and/or popliteal arteries. Cohort 2: To evaluate this patient population for treatment of in-stent restenotic lesions.
