Filter by:This is a pilot study designed to validate our methods of recruitment, screening and data collection in the community. The project will help to establish the feasibility of the study design to lay the groundwork for a potentially larger study. The final study will allow us to estimate the incidence and prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), carotid artery stenosis, and peripheral artery disease (PAD) in different geographic areas in a large urban setting, as well as determine patient access to healthcare and treatment for vascular disease as related to geographic and racial differences.
This is a 24-month study of ranibizumab (2.0 mg and 1.0 mg) in subjects with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy as diagnosed by fluorescein/indocyanine green (FA/ICG) angiography.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal aflibercept injection in the treatment of PCV
A prospective, multicentric, randomized controlled trial to assess the safety and performance of the Passeo-18 Lux Paclitaxel releasing PTA balloon catheter versus the uncoated Passeo 18 PTA balloon catheter for the treatment of stenosis, restenosis or occlusion of the infrapopliteal arteries.
Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) is a treatable and a common disease of the elderly. The overall objective of this work is to describe cardio- and cerebrovascular risk factors and vascular disease in shunted INPH-patients compared to an age- and sex matched elderly population, as well as the impact of vascular risk factors and vascular co-morbidity on clinical symptoms and outcome of surgery in INPH-patients. The hypothesis is that INPH-patients have a higher level of vascular risk factors and subclinical organ damage than a normal elderly population, and that the higher the level of existing vascular risk factors, the more severe the symptoms of the hydrocephalic disease.
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using the radial artery (RA) has since the nineties gone through a revival. The initially reported worse outcome in RA graft patients compared to patients grafted with the saphenous vein (SV) has since been corrected. Studies have shown better patency when using RA, so the RA is going to be preferred more and more especially in younger patients where long time patency is critical. During the last 10 years endoscopic techniques to harvest the RA have evolved. Multiple different techniques have been used, but now the equipment and technique have been refined and are highly reliable. The investigators hypothesize that the endoscopic technique has less complications and a just as good patency as open harvest. There are also two possible ways to use the RA as a graft. One way is sewing it onto the aorta and another way is sewing it onto the mammarian artery. The investigators hypothesize that using it on the mammarian artery is superior as a revascularisation technique with just as good a patency as sewing it directly onto the aorta.
This study compared the effect of ranibizumab administered as monotherapy versus ranibizumab administered in combination with verteporfin photodynamic therapy (PDT) on visual acuity in patients with symptomatic macular polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV). The results of this study provided long-term safety and efficacy data used to generate further guidance on the management of patients with PCV.
This is a randomised controlled study of patients suffering from intermittent claudication (IC), to assess the impact of wearing a Nike FuelBand (NFB) on walking distances, exercise levels and quality of life.
This open label, single-arm, non-controlled, multicentre study will determine the effect of ambrisentan on exercise capacity (6MWT) in Chinese subjects with PAH. The study consists of a screening period of 4 weeks, a 12-week primary evaluation period (PEP) and a 12-week dose-adjustment period (DAP). Ambrisentan 5 mg will be administered to eligible subjects for 12 weeks (PEP).
This study is a Phase I, intravenous, single-dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of PZ-128 (pepducin inhibitor of PAR1) in subjects with vascular disease or who have 2 or more coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factors.
