Filter by:Collect confirmatory evidence of the safety and effectiveness of the Balloon LIFESTREAMâ„¢ Stent Graft for the treatment of stenoses and occlusion in the iliac arteries.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the results of drug eluting balloon are non-inferior to the Nitinol stent implantation in the femoropopliteal segment.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) results in blockages of arteries (blood vessels) in the legs and decreased blood flow to the legs. This may cause difficulty or pain with walking or other activities that use leg muscles. Exercise may help improve blood flow in the legs and improve the ability to walk. This research project is being implemented in adults with PAD to examine the effects of exercise or weight loss programs on lower extremity blood flow, health, and physical function.
The purpose of this Randomized Study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Excel-II DES compared to the EXCEL DES in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.
The goals of this study are to evaluate the efficacy of the B-flow capability on the LOGIQ E9 system in three clinical focus areas. 1. Liver transplant patients: Improved real-time visualization of liver vessels is needed to improve diagnosis and assessment following stenting or angioplasty. 2. Renal artery disease: Improved real-time visualization of the renal arteries would enable a more rapid and accurate assessment of renal artery disease (stenosis, dissection, occlusion, aneurysm) and facilitate follow-up evaluations after renal artery interventions. 3. Pregnancy: We are proposing to use B-flow ultrasound as a way to evaluate placenta perfusion and assay for potential ischemia.
The purpose of this study is to establish the rate of radial artery occlusion post transradial cardiac catheterization through different modalities. The study hypothesis is that specialized imaging can provide specific information to help identify hand complications after cardiac catheterization through the wrist.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of MDT-2113 for the interventional treatment of de novo and non-stented restenotic lesions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and the proximal popliteal artery (PPA) as compared to treatment with standard percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA).
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), which means that it is important to find out risk factors of CVD in order to prevent or treat it. In recent years, there has been more and more recognition of a very high prevalence of CV calcification in the ESRD population. Many observational cohort studies have shown that CV calcification in these patients can predict mortality, CV mortality and morbidity. Electrolyte imbalance is easily found in the ESRD patients which may result in vessel calcification. Calcification leads to arterial stenosis and increasing arterial stiffness and then heart afterload, both contribute to the development of CVD. Besides, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia pave the way for a chronic, immune-mediated vascular inflammation and cardiovascular disease. These factors are prevalent in ESRD patients, which would also cause arterial stiffness. Arterial stiffness and stenosis would increase the risk of CV events and mortality. Aortic pulse wave velocity is strongly associated with the presence and extent of atherosclerosis and constitutes a forceful marker and predictor of cardiovascular risk. At the same time, high prevalence of peripheral artery occlusion disease (PAOD) should also be found while arterial stiffness and stenosis, which would increase the condition of infection and gangrene. Thus, life safety and quality would be influenced severely and early detection might prevent future amputation. As compared with HD or pre-dialysis patients, uremic patients treated with PD have a higher risk for metabolic syndrome. Therefore, more studies to evaluate the condition of arterial stiffness and PAOD, especially in PD patients, are needed for future management and preventions of CV related morbidity and mortality.
To collect data on the routine patterns of use, safety and effectiveness, including the clinical and technical performance of the CorPath 200 System, in the delivery and manipulation of coronary guidewires and stent/balloon catheters during PCI procedures.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate acute and long term clinical and economic outcomes of endovascular procedures to treat Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD).
