Filter by:This is a randomized controlled trial with blinding (for the observer who evaluates treatment goals). With two groups to study. A group of patients with conventional therapy for the treatment of PAD (Platelet antiaggregant, statin, cilostazol in case of claudication) and the other group of patients with conventional therapy for treatment of PAD plus cell therapy with objective to evaluate the microvascular effect after the application of cell therapy with a hematopoietic stem cell concentrate in patients with PAD with non-critical ischemia and Diabetes. Perform evaluations of the microcirculation by means of TcPO2 at 30, 60, 90 and 180 days after the experimental maneuver (cell therapy) and conventional therapy.
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Cardio Flow FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System for atherosclerotic plaque removal and vessel compliance modification in de novo native target lesions in the peripheral vasculature of the lower extremities.
The prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is greater than 15%. PAD is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular death, coronary heart disease and stroke, with a mortality rate of 5% per year. Most clinical evidence supports the idea that having normal vitamin D reduces cardiovascular risk. The data suggests that normalizing vitamin D levels would have a significant impact on public health, reduce costs and help control the incidence and prevalence of cardiovascular disease. There is also a plausible physiological theory, supported by numerous observational studies, that vitamin D supplementation should be effective in improving cardiovascular outcomes, such as blood pressure, arterial stiffness, atherosclerosis, endothelial function, and clinical events. The investigators hypothesize that routine screening for vitamin D deficiency and supplementation in case of hypovitaminosis D is effective for improving the maximum walking distance after 12 weeks of treatment in stage 2 PAD patients .
Fifty patients will be treated with Solaris Endoprosthesis and followed up to 2 years with Walking Impairment Questionnaire and Doppler Ultrasound evaluation in 30 days, 6 months and 12 months.
This study evaluates the local inflammatory and resolution response of patients undergoing peripheral vascular intervention like an angioplasty of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) or popliteal artery, or stenting of the iliac artery or SFA, through the use of Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI). PET/MRI will be performed prior to intervention, one day and one week after intervention.
This clinical investigation is intended to evaluate the ability of a magnetic cardiac positioning system to decrease medical radiation exposure on a peripheral angioplasty procedure in patients with a peripheral artery stenosis.
A prospective cohort study over the prosthetic use among patients amputated after vascular disease and the impact of their HRQoL.
This study will investigate if patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) can be successfully incorporated into an already existing Cardiac Rehabilitation programme. One group of PAD patients will exercise as a group, and the other group will exercise alongside patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a digital health platform coupled with walking activity tracking for patients with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) and symptoms limited to claudication.
Recent studies have shown that applying intermittent negative pressure (INP) with short negative pressure (-40 mmHg) pulses to the lower extremities increase arterial blood flow velocity and skin blood flow. However, the optimal magnitude of negative pressure to improve blood flow is not known, and needs further investigation. Peripheral arterial blood flow velocity, skin blood flow and skin temperature in the foot will be recorded at different levels of oscillating negative pressure to identify a pressure range which is practically, while at the same time induce clinically relevant changes in blood flow parameters. Heart rate and blood pressure will be recorded to monitor the effects on the central circulation.
