Filter by:The purpose of this research is to use an approved drug(Visudyne) for neovascular age-related macular degeneration, which is essentially choroidal neovascularization for permeability and vascular proliferation for the retinal circulation, to treat another permeable abnormality - retinal capillary abnormalities - located eccentric to the central portion of the macula or in the foveal region.
An international, multi-center, prospective, blinded, randomized, controlled trial. The objective is to demonstrate that catheter-based renal denervation is an effective and safe treatment for uncontrolled hypertension.
The purpose of this study has evolved and expanded since its inception. Originally the intent was to establish the functional, molecular and genetic profile of fibroblasts from Fibromuscular Dysplasia (FMD) patients as compared to carefully matched control subjects. While this remains among the objectives, the study has been expanded to undertake a fully powered cross-tissue systems genetics analysis of FMD, and now also the related arteriopathies spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and cervical artery dissection (CvAD). The overall objective is to disclose the core biologic mechanisms of these disorders.
To design, validate and prove cost-effectiveness of a comprehensive endovascular simulation curriculum consisting of cognitive and psychomotor skills training for endovascular management of symptomatic vascular disease in the lower limbs.
The study is designed to confirm the acute safety and performance of the ArterX® Surgical Sealant as a hemostatic agent. The study will collect data in support of publications and future product labeling revisions, to provide additional clinical information on use and further details regarding product safety.
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the early and mid-term outcome (after 6 and 12 months) and the long-term (up to 24 months) outcome of the Zilver PTX paclitaxel-eluting stent (Cook) versus bypass surgery for the treatment of TASC C&D femoropopliteal lesions.
Effects of VEGF Trap-Eye (aflibercept) in treatment-naive polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) will be evaluated.
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).
