Filter by: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.
Interventional strategies aim to restore tissue perfusion. However, despite the simple reopening of a narrowed artery they affect endothelial function, perpetuating dysfunctional vascular homeostasis. PTA and atherectomy might alter the endothelial function but the mechanisms are incompletely understood. The primary goal of atherectomy is vessel preparation and improving compliance, which could aid in preserving vessel functions. Aim of this study is to determine safety, efficacy, patency and vessel functions in the femoropopliteal artery following atherectomy and DCB.
The first aim of this study was to elaborate and validate a treadmill walking test that would help discriminate between neurogenic claudication from vascular claudication. The second objective of this study is to determine if the treadmill walking test can discriminate spinal stenosis from low back pain with radiating pain in lower limb.
The study is an observational feasibility study to evaluate the feasibility of a combined aerobic+resistance training program in patients with IC.
This INITIATE study evaluates the use of high-intensity interval training as a treatment modality for patients with intermittent claudication - an ambulatory leg pain caused by narrowed arteries that supply the lower limbs. It is an observational cohort study considering HIIT as a treatment for intermittent claudication, consisting of two workstreams. Workstream 1: an initial observational cohort study to consider the feasibility of the intervention and exclusion criteria. Workstream 2: a proof of concept study utilising the altered intervention and exclusion criteria following recommendations highlighted during workstream 1.
This proposed study will be conducted to support real-world-evidence on the extent of best medical treatment for secondary prevention of patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) for prevention of worsening limb symptoms or of major adverse cardiovascular events. The overall objective of this study is to gain a better understanding of patient characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes in PAOD patients. For this purpose the investigators will analyze a patient population hospitalized either with intermittent claudication (IC) or chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) while taking prior PAOD-related diagnoses in the outpatient setting into account. In detail, we study differentials according to age, calendar time, sex, disease severity and hospital procedure. Data were extracted from available German health insurance claims.
The purpose of this study is to test if a patient can be directly connected to a quality assurance (QA) database, traditionally known as a registry. Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) data will be entered into the database directly from a patient's mobile phone from their index procedure for 12 months. The investigators hope this study to be a "proof of concept" for such a distributed registry and evaluate 1) consistency of data acquisition, 2) engagement of patients, 3) overall value of patient-reported outcomes to enhance long term follow up.
The study is designed to evaluate the bioequivalence and the within-subject variability between the test formulation of extended-release tablet of cilostazol (PMR) administered once daily and the reference formulation of immediate-release tablet of cilostazol (Cilostazol) administered twice-daily in normal healthy male and female subjects under fasting conditions.
It will be done a prospective Study involving 38 patients with lumbar stenosis. A magnetic resonance (MR) imaging study and a electromyographic study will be done previously and 3 months after the epiduroscopy to confirm radiologic or neurophysiological changes. During the technic it will be used different instruments, an endoscope developed for its use in the epidural space (Resascope), a Fogarty balloon (Resaloon) to dilate the space near the epidural recess where it will be try to decrease the ligamentum flavum using the Resaflex, an instrument with Quantum Molecular Resonance for tissue coablation, in order to get less symptomatic lumbar stenosis. The investigators will compare qualitative and quantitative variables at baseline and 1, 3, 6, ant 12 months after the epiduroscopy.
The aim of the study is to analyze the effect of 12 weeks of arm crank exercise (ACE) training on cardiovascular function in PAD patients, and compare it with treadmill exercise (TE), the actual recommendation for this patients. In this clinical trial, 45 patients will be allocated randomly in three experimental groups: ACE training, TE and control group. ACE and TE groups will perform exercises twice a week with the intensity equivalent to 13- 15 on Borg's Subjective Perception Exertion Scale. Patients in control group will meet twice a week, however only to perform diverse activities and group living, without any type of exercise involved. All groups will be encouraged to increase their levels of activity, as they are usually guided in medical consultations. Before and after 12 weeks of intervention, cardiovascular function, functional capacity, cognition, and quality of life will be assessed.
