Filter by:Creation of the parenchymal tract between the portal vein and the hepatic vein is the most difficult and time consuming step in a TIPS procedure. The purpose of this study is to evaluate portal vein access sets during the TIPS procedure.
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of ravulizumab compared to placebo in adult participants with thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) associated with a trigger. Participants will be randomized to receive either ravulizumab plus best supportive care or placebo plus best supportive care. The treatment period is 26 weeks followed by a 26-week off-treatment follow-up period.
Annually, 150-200 TAVR with unilateral large bore access and 200 combined TEVAR/EVAR/FEVAR with bilateral large bore access are performed at our institution. Nearly 50 percent of patients fall outside IFU for access vessel size. Adjuncts described include iliac conduit, crack and pave, balloon expandable sheaths, direct aortic puncture, transcaval delivery, alternative access point (i.e axillary, carotid). Each of these adjuncts comes with additional complication potential and by nature of being used less frequently than the standard femoral access makes the procedure more challenging. The intervention the use of the Shockwave Medical, Inc. Peripheral Lithoplasty® System to achieve large bore access in patients whose vessels fall outside of the IFU suggested dimensions.
Clinical study to investigate the safety and the efficacy of the URECA CTO Device during recanalization and mechanical re-entry into the true lumen after passing the occlusions/calcifications (chronic total occlusions) in the peripheral vasculature.
The purpose of this study is to identify the type of patients being referred for the Vascular Rehabilitation Program (VRP) and to study the success rates of the program according to improvements in walking distance and quality of life surveys. Subjects will be in the VRP for 6-12 weeks and then be followed for 12 months after they complete the program. This is a single-site study at Baylor Scott & White Heart Hospital-Plano.
The purpose of this study is to apply Avazzia micro-current stimulation to patients with chronic, non-healing wounds to determine if this therapy is effective in perfusion and bacterial measurements.
The aim of this study is to obtain and test endothelial cells (EC's) from umbilical cords to examine specific properties of these cells which make up the inner lining of blood vessels.
The objective is to ensure the pro-active collection of information on quality, safety and performance of FlowOx™ after it is placed on the market. The study will be carried out in a patient population with peripheral artery disease (claudicatio intermittens) to confirm its usefulness and in particular gather information for further improvements of the device related to this patient population. The data collected from the use of the CE-marked FlowOX™ device are change of walking distance, quality of life, and the patient's compliance.
Study ROR-PH-302, ADVANCE CAPACITY, is designed to evaluate the effects of ralinepag therapy on exercise capacity as assessed by change in peak oxygen consumption (VO2) derived from cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) after 28 weeks of treatment
Medical ethics encourages medical personal to actively care for patients, however old they may be, if they have maintained their physical autonomy and mental integrity to travel the path of medical care together. Many of the patients are in this situation today and their age does not seem to be a limiting factor in the care required. For more than 60 years, antithrombotics have played a major role in the management of thromboembolic and arterioatheromatous diseases. the doctors have therefore seen the advent of low molecular weight heparins, new platelet antiaggregants and then direct oral anticoagulants. If their contribution is no longer discussed today, it is necessary to take into consideration the risks they cause, particularly in terms of haemorrhage. Indeed, antithrombotics are the leading cause of serious adverse reactions in France with anti-vitamins K (AVK) which are the leading cause of hospitalization for severe iatrogeny in France. This risk is increased by the coexistence of haemorrhagic risk factors: drug interaction, misuse, failure to comply with contraindications and precautions for use, especially as exposure to these drugs increases with age.
