Filter by:POLYPATCH® study is RWE multicentre study which examine short and long-term outcomes of using POLYPATCH® when exposed to a larger and more varied population. All data will be retrieved from medical charts for each patient from time of surgery (considered as baseline of study) until a maximum of 3 years after surgery. A minimum of 250 up to a maximum of 300 subjects will be evaluated from 3 to 8 different sites. At least 100 subjects will be evaluated in carotid location and at least 100 in femoral location.
A total of 600 patients undergoing coronary procedures via transradial access using 6F sheath were randomized at the end of the procedure to receive either 250-µg nicardipine or 500-µg nitroglycerin administered to the radial artery through the radial sheath before sheath removal. A continuous patent hemostasis was applied in each patient with the use of an oximetry to maintain an oxygen saturation of >95%, measured in the finger of the accessed arm until compression device was totally removed. The primary outcome is early RAO which was evaluated by color duplex ultrasonography of the accessed arteries at the day after the radial procedure. Secondary outcome was the change of blood pressure at 2-3 minutes after drug administration. Radial artery angiogram was performed after radial sheath insertion and doppler ultrasound of the accesed radial artery was examined at the day after the procedure.
There is both a poor life expectancy and a poor prognosis of limb salvage in those patience with stenoses or occlusions of the lower limb (TASC Consensus). To date only a small number of these patients could be helped through medication or surgery. In fact within the first year following diagnosis of a critical limb ischemia 25% of patients lose their leg and 90% have to undergo a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) or bypass surgery. Using PTA for treatment of long infrapopliteal artery lesions, stenosis reoccurs in 70% to 80% of cases 3 months after index procedure. Even the use of drug-eluting balloons leads only to 1-year primary patency rates up to 30%. The primary objective of this study is to compare the performance of atherectomy followed by a drug-coated balloon angioplasty over drug-coated balloon angioplasty alone in long de-novo infrapopliteal lesions in a prospective, single-center, randomized clinical trial.
Evaluating the effect of ulnar artery compression while pressing on radial artery to stop bleeding, in maintaining radial artery potency, after cardiac catheterization through the radial artery. We prospectively plan to compare 3000 patients referred for cardiac catheterization, randomized into two groups, one group receiving radial artery compression for stopping bleeding, in a standard fashion following best practices, and the other group receiving radial artery compression using standard best practices and ulnar artery compression. Radial artery status will be evaluated in 24 hours and 30 days of the procedure to evaluate its potency, using plethysmography.
The primary objective of this observational study is to evaluate the function (patency) of cryopreserved saphenous vein allografts used as coronary artery bypass grafts (CABG) for patients with occlusive coronary artery disease.
