Filter by:Cardiac surgery is associated with risk of perioperative inflammation and ischemia leading to cerebral and myocardial morbidity and mortality. Ischemic preconditioning by repetitive ischemic episodes at an organ can reduce damage resulting from consecutive prolonged ischemia in that organ. Remote ischemic preconditioning is defined as ischemic preconditioning by repetitive ischemic episodes of an organ remote from the organ to be protected, e.g. ischemic episodes of a limb can reduce ischemic damage of the heart. Animal studies as well as human studies have shown that ischemic preconditioning can protect the heart from intraoperative ischemia. Remote preconditioning by repetitive limb ischemia has been applied in humans in some studies.12-14 However, the published data is not yet sufficient to support evidence based recommendations for clinical practice. In particular, available data regarding the influence of remote preconditioning on inflammatory and ischemic damage of brain and heart in children following surgery of congenital heart disease are limited. Hence, this prospective, controlled and randomized study was designed to perform remote ischemic preconditioning in children after induction of anesthesia for pediatric heart surgery and to investigate the effect on postoperative organ function in comparison to a control group.
To evaluate the procedural safety and to identify and characterize therapeutic and functional endpoint assessments in subjects with documented critical limb ischemia who received treatment with the Cotavance Paclitaxel-Coated Balloon vs. those who received POBA only.
The RAVE 2 trial is a phase I, open label, 12-month trial of intravitreal ranibizumab 2.0 mg in patients with ischemic CRVO who have been either previously treated with ranibizumab or treatment naïve.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PF-03049423 following multiple dose administration to subjects with ischemic stroke. The study will also evaluate the efficacy of PF-03049423, relative to placebo, in subjects with ischemic stroke following 90 days of therapy. The study will also explore the relationship between PF-03049423 concentration and blood pressure.
The Optimizing Cooling trial will compare four whole-body cooling treatments for infants born at 36 weeks gestational age or later with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy: (1) cooling for 72 hours to 33.5°C; (2) cooling for 120 hours to 33.5°C; (3) cooling for 72 hours to 32.0°C; and (4) cooling for 120 hours to 32.0°C. The objective of this study is to evaluate whether whole-body cooling initiated at less than 6 hours of age and continued for 120 hours and/or a depth at 32.0°C in will reduce death and disability at 18-22 months corrected age.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Janus OPTIMA Tacrolimus-Eluting Stent (Optima TES, CID) for the treatment of de novo coronary lesions when associated with short-term (two months) dual antiplatelet (aspirin + clopidogrel) regimen.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcranial ultrasound (US) as an adjunctive therapy to tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) treatment in subjects with acute ischemic stroke.
This trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA) to prevent or delay major amputation and/or death in subjects with critical limb ischemia (CLI) due to severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
This is a multi center, prospective study designed to demonstrate the safety and performance of the GARDEX Embolic Protection System when used as an adjunctive device during saphenous vein graft (SVG) interventions.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with umbilical cord blood stem cells will improve blood flow to the most severely affected leg of a participant with medically refractory and non-surgical peripheral vascular disease of the lower extremity.
