Filter by:This is an open, observational, prospective, descriptive, single-centre study including 60 patients. The study is designed to investigate if IscAlert sensor system can be used for reliable and continuous tissue carbon dioxide (pCO2)- and temperature monitoring in muscular tissue in lower extremity in patients at risk of developing acute compartment syndrome.
This research aims to assess the use of an experimental and non-invasive procedure, Remote Ischemic Conditioning (RIC), as an adjunct therapy in attenuating severe COVID-19 disease. An excessive and counterproductive systemic inflammatory response is thought to be a major cause of severe disease and death in patients with COVID-19. Severe ICU cases frequently have markedly higher levels of inflammatory markers such as CRP, IL-6, IL and TNF-a; which is thought to be correlated with increasing disease severity. The relationship between dysregulated inflammatory processes and disease states such as acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are well understood. ALI is characterized by an acute exaggerated mononuclear/neutrophilic inflammatory response followed by progressive collagen deposition in the lung, and if severe enough, may progress to ARDS requiring ventilation.
A recent study, where the authors studied the effectiveness of stenting of prolonged lesions (>200 mm) of the femoral-popliteal segment with nitinol stents (TASC II, D), showed unsatisfactory primary patency rates (45%) within 2 years follow up (Lin et al, 2015). One of the possible solutions to the problem of breakage of stents in the femoral-popliteal position is a modified method of their manufacture by braiding from nitinol wire. Another possible solution to the problem of stent breakage in the femoral-popliteal position is fasciotomy in Gunter's canal with dissection of the lamina vasto-adductoria. According to a pilot randomized study (Karpenko et al, 2019), the primary patency at 24 months was 60% in the stenting group supplemented with fasciotomy in Gunter's canal, and 28.5% in the stenting group without fasciotomy. These facts prove the need for a comparative study on a cohort of patients using a biomimetic interwoven nitinol stent. This is a pilot prospective, randomized, open-label study. The main objective of the study is to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of two methods of treating prolonged atherosclerotic lesions (TASC II, type D) of the arteries of the femoropopliteal segment above the knee.
Endovascular revascularization and open bypass grafting above the knee show comparable results in primary 2-year patency (about 65%) in medium-length lesions - TASC II, C (Pereira et al, 2006). At the same time, a recent study, where the authors studied the effectiveness of stenting of long lesions (200 mm or more) of the chronic occlusions of the femoropopliteal segments (TASC II, D), showed unsatisfactory results (primary patency 45%) of the stented segment within 2 years (Lin et al, 2015). One of the possible solutions to the problem of breakage of stents in the femoral-popliteal position is a modified method of their manufacture by braiding from nitinol wire. Some studies with intervowen nitinol stents did show their resistance to breakage in this position. Moreover, the primary patency was > 70%. (Werner et al, 2014). These data suggest a better primary patency rate within 2 years with a longer lesion length (>200 mm). This is a prospective, randomized, open-label study. The main objective of the study is to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of two therapies for the treatment of prolonged atherosclerotic lesions of the arteries of the femoropopliteal segment above the knee, TASC II type D - femoropopliteal proximal shunting and recanalization with angioplasty and stenting using biomimetic interwoven nitinol stent in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease at 24 months. Secondary objectives are to identify predictors of restenosis and occlusions of the operating segment and compare the quality of life of patients after the procedure. It is planned to recruit 110 patients (55 patients in each group). Observation period 2 years. Primary endpoint: -The effectiveness of the method of surgical treatment after 24 months (primary patency, primary-assisted patency, secondary patency). Secondary endpoints: - Clinical efficacy of the method of surgical treatment after 24 months (MALE); - Safety of the method of surgical treatment in the early postoperative period (hematoma of the surgical access area, peripheral neuropathy, purulent-infectious complications of the surgical access area) and after 24 months (MACE); - Assessment of the quality of life in patients after surgical treatment at 6, 12, and 24 months (SF-36 questionnaire); - Evaluation of prognostic factors for adverse outcomes after surgical treatment.
A custom-made, 2D-perfusion digital subtraction angiography (PDSA) algorithm has been designed and implemented towards foot perfusion quantification following endovascular treatment of critical limb ischemia (CLI), in order to assist intra-procedural decision-making and enhance clinical outcomes.
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.
To investigate whether compression therapy with foot pump reduce post-operative edema, facilitate wound healing of operation wounds, promote healing of ischemic ulcers and shorten hospitalization, increase and improve the patient's subjective quality of life faster
