Filter by:The investigators evaluated whether primary implantation of a self-expanding nitinol stent yielded anatomical and clinical benefits superior to those afforded by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with optional secondary stenting.
The proposed prospective, multi-center, randomized clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Superion™ ISS compared to the X-STOP® IPD® device in healthy adults suffering from at least 6 months of moderate spinal stenosis symptoms who have been unresponsive to conservative care.
The main objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards Lifesciences LifeStent nitinol self expandable stent device and its delivery system in the treatment of occlusive superficial femoral artery (SFA) disease by reducing the re-intervention rate as compared to percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) alone
The purpose of this study is (1) to determine whether a 3-month exercise rehabilitation program will improve claudication distances, free-living daily physical activity, and health-related quality of life of older, revascularized patients with peripheral arterial disease, and (2) to determine whether the primary mechanisms by which exercise rehabilitation affects the above functional outcomes are through alterations in walking efficiency, peripheral circulation, and cardiopulmonary function.
To investigate whether endovascular revascualrization of infrainguinal arterial obstructive disease has an effect on brachial artery reactivity
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of age and the effect of exercise intensity of rehabilitation programs on claudication pain symptoms and leg circulation of younger and older patients with intermittent claudication.
The primary objective of the proposed pilot study is to determine the efficacy of oxymorphone hydrochloride and propoxyphene/acetaminophen combination in prolonging the time to onset of pain and reducing the severity of pain associated with walking in patients with neurogenic intermittent claudication. The secondary objective is to examine the functional benefit of oxymorphone hydrochloride and propoxyphene/acetaminophen combination with respect to improvement in duration and distance of walking tolerance. The proposed study will also provide the foundation for a treadmill-based methodology for assessing the analgesic efficacy of drugs for low back pain provoked by standing and walking associated with lumbar spinal stenosis.
The primary objective of the proposed pilot study is to determine the efficacy of pregabalin in prolonging the time to onset of pain and reducing the severity of pain associated with walking in patients with neurogenic intermittent claudication. The secondary objective is to examine the functional benefit of pregabalin with respect to improvement in duration and distance of walking tolerance. The proposed study will also provide the foundation for a treadmill-based methodology for assessing the analgesic efficacy of drugs for low back pain provoked by standing and walking associated with lumbar spinal stenosis.
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the long-term (up to 12 months) outcome of the 200 mm long self-expanding nitinol EverFlex (ev3) stent in long femoropopliteal lesions (TASC C & D) Is is the first time that the use of 200 mm long stents will be evaluated in these lesions. It is expected that the outcome of the treatment with this type of long stents will be better as the treatment of identical lesions lengths with multiple shorter stents.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a home-based exercise rehabilitation program compared to a supervised exercise program on intermittent claudication (leg pain or discomfort) and ambulatory function.
