Filter by:Tissue perfusion assessment is key to more accurate measurement of foot ischemia, which is in turn an important factor in appropriate treatment decisions. In practice though, tissue perfusion measurements are not routinely undertaken as few practical solutions exist that are easy to use and fit in everyday clinical practice. Pedra has developed a novel easy to use, non-invasive device that can be used in practice to better inform treatment decisions.
- Improving patient comfort and implementing the protocols required to minimize the risk of RAO must be part of quality control. - Several procedural parameters are related to the risk of RAO but hemostasis is a critical period. - Despite the fact that non-occlusive hemostasis of the radial artery is a recognized and effective technique for reducing the risk of RAO, it is rarely practiced because it is tedious, involves additional care and is not always effective with current hemostasis systems. - Prophylactic compression of the cubital artery during radial artery hemostasis has been shown to be effective in maintaining non-occlusive hemostasis but requires 2 devices and does not simplify care procedures. - The Terry2™ band is a new dual device that offers effortless non-occlusive radial hemostasis and does not require repeated intervention by nursing staff. The primary objectives of this observational study are to demonstrate the benefits, safety and impact on care of using Terry2™ band in patients undergoing diagnostic or interventional catheterization by radial (or ulnar) approach.
Transradial approach has become the default arterial access for coronary angiography (CAG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), mainly due to lower incidence of bleeding compared to transfemoral access.1 However, TRA is not deprived of local access site complications such as radial artery occlusion (RAO), occurring in approximately 5.2% of patients, compartment syndrome, pseudoaneurysm, hematoma, and arteriovenous fistula. Recently, a novel approach has been proposed, the access through the distal radial artery (distal transradial access, dTRA), located in the anatomical snuffbox. Initial studies regarding the dRA have shown feasibility and benefits, including shorter hemostasis time, fewer local access site complications and potentially lower incidence of RAO. GlideSheath Slender is a novel sheath which has a hydrophilic coating and is made of a thinner material than traditional sheaths. As a result, the external diameter of the 5 Fr GlideSheath Slender sheath is 1 Fr lower compared with conventional arterial sheaths. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether the use of the Slender sheath affects the time of hemostasis, sheath insertion time, crossover rate to conventional radial access, pain associated with the procedure and incidence of local access site complications (RAO, distal radial artery occlusion, fistula, hematoma) in patients undergoing diagnostic angiography through the distal radial artery.
Background The management of patients with symptomatic nonacute intracranial artery occlusion (sNA-ICAO), which is a special subset with high morbidity and a high probability of recurrent serious ischemic events despite standard medical therapy (SMT), has been clinically challenging. Some small-sample clinical studies have also discussed endovascular recanalization for sNA-ICAO; however, there is currently a lack of evidence from multicenter, prospective, large-sample cohort trials. The aim of our present study was to evaluate the technical feasibility and safety of endovascular recanalization for sNA-ICAO. Methods and analysis: Our group is currently undertaking a multisite, nonrandomized cohort, prospective registry study enrolling consecutive patients presenting with sNA-ICAO at 15 centers in China between May 1, 2020, and April 30, 2023. A cohort of patients who received SMT and a cohort of similar patients who received ER plus SMT were constructed and followed up for 2 years. The primary outcome is the composite of stroke/TIA within 2 years following enrollment and stroke/TIA ipsilateral to the target vessel. The secondary efficacy outcome includes the following two parts: 1) the incidence of stroke/TIA ipsilateral to the target vessel within 30 days and 90 days in both groups; 2) the all-cause mortality, mRS score, NIHSS score and cognitive function at 30 days, 90 days, 8 months, 12 months and 24 months for both groups, including the MRI, CTA/MRA, CTP or MRP results in patients with internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery occlusion as well as CTA in patients with basilar or vertebral artery occlusion at 90 days, 12 months and 24 months. Descriptive statistics and linear/logistic multiple regression models will be generated. Clinical relevance will be measured as relative risk reduction, absolute risk reduction and the number needed to treat. Ethics and dissemination This study protocol was reviewed and approved primarily by Beijing Tiantan Hospital, the Capital Medical University Medical Ethics Committee, and the institutional review boards of all partner sites. The study is being externally monitored, and the results will be published in open-access peer-reviewed scientific journals and presented to academic and policy stakeholders.
Rationale: Recently, two prospective multicenter RCT reported a potential beneficial effect of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with an acute symptomatic basilar artery occlusion (BAO). However, the high rate of crossover in BEST study and the long-term of recruitment in BASICS study influenced the validity of the results. Besides, a recently prospective clinical registry with large sample size (BASILAR) showed a significantly beneficial effect of EVT in BAO patients. Objective: To assess the effect of EVT in addition to best medical management (BMM) compared to BMM alone, in patients with BAO, caused by a CTA/MRA confirmed occlusion of the basilar artery on functional and safety outcome. Study design: This is a parallel group, randomized clinical trial of EVT with BMM versus BMM. The trial has observer blind assessment of the primary outcome and of neuro-imaging at baseline and follow up. Study population: Patients with acute ischemic stroke and a confirmed basilar artery occlusion by CTA/MRA. Main study parameters/outcomes: The primary effect parameter will be favourable outcome at day 90 defined as a modified Rankin Score (mRS) of 0-3. The estimate will be adjusted for the known prognostic variables age, pre-stroke mRS, time from onset to randomization, stroke severity (NIHSS) and collaterals and adjusted and unadjusted estimates with corresponding 95% confidence intervals will be reported.
The objective of this study is to determine the rate of early radial artery occlusion following 7-French(7-Fr) transradial coronary intervention using a new Terumo (Tokyo, Japan) Glidesheath Slender, in comparison with the currently used 7-Fr radial sheath.

This study is a prospective, multicenter, real world, observational study intended to understand the impact of tibial run off on clinical outcome of endovascular therapy in Femoropopliteal lesions. It is estimated that 1200 patients with chronic femoral popliteal artery occlusion were enrolled in the group at 8 centers nationwide from January 2021 to December 2022. Two groups would be divided according to whether or not the tibial run off intervened for reconstruction. The intervention group and the non-intervention group. The intervention group would be evaluated Run-off score again after the tibial run off reconstructed. The the Society for Vascular Surgery(SVS) run-off score would be used for the score of the tibial run off. The total score of the tibial run off would be 19 points, 1 point indicating healthy run off. According to the quality of the run off, the preoperative patients would be divided into 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, and >15 points. The follow-up would be conducted at 1, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after the operation. As it is a real world study, there is no determined end point.The main indicators would be observed including the reintervention rate driven by lesions' clinical symptoms, the rate of primary patency of the femoral popliteal artery, the improvement of quality of life score and rutherford grading.
The aim of the study is to investigate if lesion preparation with a ScoreFlex balloon compared to a standard non-compliant balloon improve vascular healing and minimize lumen reduction after implantation of a Magmaris bioresorbable scaffold.
This prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical study has a target enrollment of 240 subjects. It will explore whether STEMI patients transferred to a PCI center following thrombolytic therapy and expected to have stent implantation might benefit from an alternative treatment strategy and the use of new technologies designed to improve myocardial protection throughout the medical care process.
