Filter by:This two-year pilot study will test whether a one-page "Jumpstart Form" will affect goals-of-care discussions in the hospital. This form will be provided to clinicians and will include patient-specific information about preferences for goals-of-care communication and for care, as well as tips to improve this communication. Jumpstart forms will also be provided to patients or, if they are unable to communicate, their surrogates/family members. The information on the form will be obtained from questionnaires. The form is tailored to help patients and surrogates talk with clinicians about goals of care. This study is based on a successful application of Jumpstart Form in the outpatient clinic setting.
This pilot study is to investigate if a lesion preparation strategy with Phoenix atherectomy before DCB (drug coated balloon) usage in patients with PAD (peripheral artery disease) Rutherford Stage 4-5 and mild/moderate/severe calcium can improve outcomes including patency and limb salvage and evaluate safety and performance of the combination therapy
NICE is a randomized clinical trial that will examine the effects of nicotinamide riboside (NR) both with and without resveratrol to test whether, among people with PAD, NR significantly improves walking performance more than placebo and whether NR combined with resveratrol significantly improves walking performance more than placebo. If findings support the hypotheses, results will be used to design a large, definitive randomized clinical. The study will randomize 90 participants with PAD to one of the following three groups: NR + resveratrol, NR + placebo, or placebo + placebo.
Recent studies indicate that anti-factor-Xa inhibition with low-dose rivaroxaban may have a role in the reduction of ischemic recurrences in patients with atherosclerotic disease manifestations. To date there is very little data, and not conducted in human subjects, on the interplay between anti-Xa blockade with low-dose rivaroxaban and antiplatelet therapies, and in particular how this affects profiles of platelet reactivity and thrombin generation. Given the potential role for the use of low-dose rivaroxaban for the prevention of ischemic recurrences in patients with atherothrombotic disease manifestations, including coronary artery disease (CAD) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD), the study team proposes a prospective pharmacodynamic (PD) investigation assessing the impact of low-dose rivaroxaban when used in combination with antiplatelet treatment regimens commonly used in clinical practice.
By doing this study, researchers hope to learn about the feasibility of using a mobile application to help overweight or obese adults with PAD increase their walking distance and lose weight.
The objective of the PRELUDE BTK study is to assess safety and efficacy of the Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter (study device) in subjects with atherosclerotic peripheral artery disease of the infrapopliteal arteries.
Atherosclerosis is a systemic disease that affects coronary, cerebral, and lower-extremity arteries. Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the manifestation of atherosclerosis in the legs. Three different stages can be found: asymptomatic stage (stage 1), exercise ischemia stage (stage 2) and rest ischemia stage (stage 3). The risk factors for PAD are similar to those for coronary artery disease (CAD) and cerebrovascular disease (CBVD), like high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, dyslipidemia and obesity. But cigarette smoking is the single most important risk factor for the development and progression of PAD. PAD is a serious illness and an important predictor of cardiovascular disease with major medico-economic consequences. A low socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with higher cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. In these vulnerable populations, there is an increase in the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors, particularly for smoking. The main objective of this study was to assess the level of precariousness in patients with symptomatic PAD and compare it to the level of precariousness in the general population. Patients were recruited from vascular medicine and surgery department of Grenoble university hospital or therapeutic education outpatient consultation. The analysis of socio-economic and environmental data resulted in: - EPICES score: (Evaluation of the Deprivation and Inequalities of Health in Healthcare Centers score). The EPICES score is a quick and validated questionnaire to assess precariousness at the individual level, developed by considering all the material and psychosocial dimensions of precariousness. Precariousness, according to the EPICES score, in the general population is estimated at 40%. - INSEE parameters. The investigators completed the EPICES score with more traditional indicators derived from The National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies (INSEE) collects, analyses and disseminates information on the French economy and society. The investigators collected the level of education and professional practice based on the nomenclature of socio-professional categories defined by INSEE. Cardiovascular risk factors were also collected to measure the links between the level of precariousness and cardiovascular risk factors.
Pilot study to assess the feasibility of creation of a bone and arterial panorama by 2D-2D registration technique during endovascular femoro-popliteal procedures with a mobile C-arm X-ray system using EndoNaut® software.
The objective of this post-market clinical follow-up study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients receiving PhotoFix as a patch within a vascular repair or reconstruction procedure.
Studies have shown that intermittent negative pressure (INP) can induce short-term increase in blood flow in the extremity in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Case reports also have indicated that INP treatment has beneficial hemodynamic and clinical effects in patients with lower limb ischemia and hard to heal leg ulcers. However, the clinical and physiological effects of long-term INP treatment are not well documented and needs further investigation.
