Filter by:Background: critical limb ischemia is one of the most challenging cases we face nowadays with high risk for amputation, retrograde trans-pedal angioplasty offers an alternative technique after failure of traditional ante-grade angioplasty. Patients and Methods: 96 patients underwent trans-pedal or trans-tibial retrograde angioplasty after failure of the traditional ante-grade angioplasty with the aid of US, 21-gauge needle and 0.018 wire through sheath-less approach as a last chance for revascularization
The peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has been associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Despite minimally invasive endovascular techniques, patients with critical limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) have a poor prognosis with a high mortality that is comparable that of cancer. The inflammatory activity has a crucial role for the development and prognosis of atherosclerosis. Recently, different inflammatory biomarkers such as the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) have been associated with severity and prognosis in patients with PAD. Additionally, patients with CLTI present several independent risk factors for malnutrition. For this reason, malnutrition represents an independent risk factor for mortality and post-operative complications. In this context, the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) associates the nutritional and inflammatory status of patients. This study shows the clinical applicability of the different pre-operative nutritional and inflammatory biomarkers in patients with CLTI. This study does not collect any patient identifiable information.
The present randomized study proposed to compare the immediate postoperative and 2-year clinical outcomes of long surgical bypass and hybrid approaches in patients with multilevel critical lower limb ischemia.
To evaluate the safety and performance of the Sundance™ DCB in subjects with occlusive disease of the infrapopliteal arteries.
This study will focus on determining; - How accurate the test is in detecting poor circulation - How it's accuracy compares to other commonly used tests, and - Whether test results are linked to the chance of ulcer healing or amputation. Across 2 hospitals, 305 diabetic patients will be scanned using the focused ultrasound test as well as other commonly used tests to detect poor circulation. Their results will be compared to a full version of the ultrasound test to identify the most accurate.
The ECAD-CLI is an investigator-driven, prospective, single-center study. The aim of the study is to prospectively collect clinical, laboratory, angiographic, cellular and molecular variables related to prognosis and outcome in patients with diabetes mellitus and critical limb ischemia.
The aim of the presented clinical trial is to evaluate a hypothesis, that BMAC prepared from bone marrow aspirate and injected intramuscularly into ischemic areas of the lower extremity in patients with diabetes mellitus type II., intraarterially into the defect of the limb or with an intravenous application only, has a greater potential to improve the perfusion in the ischemic limbs than standard treatment of NO-CLI. Another aim of the study is to find out differences among three different therapeutic types of BMAC application, to define their effectiveness and safety and to compare the impact of different means of application to the speed of healing of the limb defects and the improvement of perfusion parameters.
This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized (2:1) trial of symptomatic patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) secondary to atherosclerotic lesions (stenotic or occluded) of the infrapopliteal vessels. Patients will undergo a percutaneous transluminal endovascular procedure with either the IN.PACT Amphirion™ drug eluting balloon or with a standard (Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty) PTA balloon. Patients will be followed with pre-study, post-study, and follow-up evaluations.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Hemospan infusion on vascular reactivity, regional perfusion and oxygenation of ischemic tissue in patients with chronic critical lower limb ischemia.
