Efficacy of Complex Decongestive Therapy (CDT) in Patients With Venous Insufficiency: a Experimental Study

CDT
Start date: October 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study investigates the effectiveness of Complex Decongestive Therapy (CDT) in improving venous flow and reducing symptoms in venous insufficiency patients. The primary goal is to demonstrate CDT's effects, with secondary goals assessing symptom relief, life quality improvement, and adverse effects. The trial is a simple blind randomized design, involving an experimental group receiving CDT plus exercises and a control group doing exercises alone. Participants are adults with specific classifications of venous insufficiency, excluding certain health conditions. The study will involve 12 participants in the experimental group and 9 in the control group.

Lymphatic Function in Patients With a Fontan Circulation From Brazil

Start date: July 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

It is suggested that the elevated central venous pressure in patients with a Fontan circulation can provoke manifestation of lymphatic dysfunction, met as plastic bronchitis, peripheral oedema and most feared protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). An explorative study from our department at Aarhus University Hospital revealed that the function of the lymphatic vasculature in 10 young Fontan patients with no complications was abnormal compared to healthy controls. However, to further describe and confirm these findings we had to investigate the lymphatic circulation in a larger, older and more complicated group of Fontan patients. The hypothesis is that, patients with a univentricular circulation have a reduced functionality of the lymphatic vasculature and which predisposes them to developing complications such as edema and PLE.

Lymphatic Function in Patients With a Fontan-Kreutzer Circulation

Start date: April 25, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The lymphatics regulate the interstitial fluid by removing excessive fluid. It represents an extremely important step in the prevention of edema. The Fontan-Kreutzer procedure has revolutionized the treatment of univentricular hearts. However, it is associated with severe complications such as protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) and peripheral edema that may involve the lymphatic circulation. Our hypothesis is that patients with a univentricular circulation have a reduced functionality of the lymphatic vasculature, which predisposes them to developing complications such as edema and PLE. The functional state of lymphatics is investigated using near infrared fluorescence imaging, NIRF. The anatomy is described using non-contrast MRI and the capillary filtration rate is measured using plethysmography.
