Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical safety, performance and benefits (e.g. decrease of procedure time, decrease of radiation time, decrease of the amount of injected contrast, delivery and ease of use) of a novel balloon catheter that combines angiography and angioplasty capabilities.
The purpose of the study is to assess PK, Pharmacodynamics (PD), Efficacy and safety of pegcetacoplan in patients with TA-TMA after HSCT.
The FLOWGRAFT post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to show the safety and performance of FlowWeave Bioseal, FlowNit Bioseal, FlowLine Bipore and FlowLine Bipore Heparin (combined named as Vascular Grafts) in the treatment of arterial diseases, such as dissection, aneurysm, intramural hematoma (IMH), penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU), contained rupture, stenosis in the aorta or peripheral arteries (lower limbs). This includes the use of FlowWeave Bioseal or FlowNit Bioseal for debranching of the head vessels in an alone standing procedure. Furthermore, it includes the use of the FlowLine Bipore and FlowLine Bipore Heparin Grafts as arterious-venous (AV) shunt.
The ability to have a visual aid to depict areas of vascular disease that are affecting the patient's health can help in patient comprehension of the problem. This comprehension can lead to better understanding of the issue and increase patient compliance to treatment. The hand drawn sketch produced by the ultrasound technologist provides an inadequate visualization of the vascular insufficiency that is causing the patient's symptoms. PIUR imaging has developed PIUR Infinity tUS, a 3D freehand tomographic ultrasound system capable of rapid, safe and accurate reconstructive 3D quantifiable vascular imaging. This system will provide a low cost and reproducible imaging solution that will be an effective educational tool for people with vascular disease.
Renal autotransplantation (RAT) is a method of removing a kidney from its place of origin in a patient, repairing it, and transplanting it in another location of the body, generally the iliac fossa of the same patient.RAT is a relatively new technique; the first ever RAT procedure in the US was performed in 1963. Advances in preservation and transplantation techniques have made RAT a modality that can be utilized in complex renal diseases. RAT is indicated for conditions such as renal vascular disease, nutcracker syndrome, pelvic venous congestion, pelvic trauma, refractory stone disease and, in some cases, loin pain hematuria syndrome and conventionally unresectable renal tumors. Irrespective of the excellent outcomes shown by RAT, the conventional open approach requires a large midline xiphoid-to-pubis or flank incision for donor nephrectomy with a second pelvic incision for renal transplantation into the iliac fossa.The current gold standard approach to RAT is a laparoscopic nephrectomy followed by open auto-transplantation. However, this approach still requires a large pelvic incision. Robotic technology enables us to perform more complex minimally invasive surgery. Gordon et al. performed and reported the first completely intracorporeal robotic RAT to repair a ureteral injury in 2014.
The aim of this explorative pilot study is to present muscle perfusion of the lower extremity in patients with PAD using the Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT) method to build a 3D reconstruction of the calf muscle. This study aims to show the feasibility of 3D reconstruction of this non-invasive method. Advantages in diagnostics for patients with PAD and three-dimensional tomography representation of the perfusion situation based on muscle oxygenation will be evaluated.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of elevated plasma ceramides on peripheral vascular function. Subjects will consume a high fat meal consisting of long chain fatty acids (to increase plasma ceramides) or medium chain fatty acids (control). Subjects' vascular function will be assessed with laser Doppler flowmetry to measure their artery function and with the CytoCam device to assess their peripheral microvascular endothelial function.
This is a retrospective, multi-center, real-world study. The researchers plan to include 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using butylphthalide and 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using Edaravone. The main purpose is to analyze the effectiveness and safety of butylphthalide and establish the drug risk assessment management plan.
Voed je Beter is a randomized, multicenter, controlled trial to examine whether personalized guidance to increase adherence to the Dutch dietary guidelines, compared to usual care, improves health of cardiovascular patients who receive regular medical treatment.
This is a prospective, open, single-arm, the real world of clinical trials. The researchers plan to recruit 300 eligible patients. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of butylphthalide in the treatment of ischemic stroke, and to establish a population pharmacokinetic model of butylphthalide in elderly patients to explore its blood drug concentration. Correlation with its efficacy and adverse reactions.
