Filter by:This is a prospective, nonrandomized, single-arm study using the Zilver PTXTM stent in patients with Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) disease (total occlusions or significant stenosis).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Jetstream Atherectomy System for the treatment of Japanese patients with symptomatic occlusive atherosclerotic lesions in native superficial femoral artery (SFA) and/or proximal popliteal arteries (PPA).
The purpose of this study is to understand the effects of fish oil supplement (containing parts of omega-3 fatty acids) on inflammation. The investigators are aiming to identify which dose of the fish oil supplement is the most effective. The name of the fish oil supplement is "SPM Emulsion."
The purpose of the registry is to assess the clinical use and safety of the LUTONIX Drug Coated Balloon Catheter in a heterogeneous patient population in real world clinical practice.
To compare two different Paclitaxel coated balloons in the treatment of high grade stenotic or occluded lesions in Superficial femoropopliteal artery (SFA )and/or Proximal Popliteal Artery in Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) patients with Rutherford class 2-4.
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has remained significant and severe complication of angiographic procedures despite the increasing use of preventative methods. It has been associated with prolonged hospital stay, high morality and the need for dialysis. Since classically used creatinine for diagnosing of CIN does not reflect the degree of tubular injury before 24-48 hours after exposure to contrast media alternative earlier biomarkers and preventative methods are needed. Remote ischemic preconditioning is a non-invasive and safe method which in some studies has been reported to protect against contrast-induced nephropathy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) (1) as an additional method to standard treatment to prevent subclinical and clinical contrast-induced acute kidney injury and (2) to assess its effect on functional properties of arterial wall, organ damage biomarkers and low molecular weight metabolites.
A Physician initiated PMCF Trial Investigating the BeSmooth Peripheral Stent System for the treatment of Iliac Lesions. The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the BeSmooth Peripheral Stent System in clinical settings post CE-certification when used according to the indications of the IFU.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of preoperative remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) on organ damage and the functional characteristics of arteries in patients undergoing vascular surgery. In addition, we investigate the connection between RIPC and changes in the functional characteristics of arteries and low molecular weight metabolites.
With the increasing aging population demographics and life expectancies, the number of very elderly patients undergoing surgery is rising. Elderly patients constitute an increasingly large proportion of the high-risk surgical group. Cardiac complications and postoperative pulmonary complications are equally prevalent and contribute similarly to morbidity, mortality, and length of hospital stay. Specific optimization strategy of general anesthesia has been tested in high-risk patients undergoing major surgery to improve outcomes. Our hypothesis is that a combined optimization strategy of anesthesia concerning hemodynamic, ventilation, and depth of anesthesia may improve short- and long- term outcome in elderly undergoing high risk surgery.
Aim: To determine whether the lactate threshold during CPET is influenced by the presence of haemodynamically significant PAD. Assumption: Correction of haemodynamically significant PAD results in an increased LT, measured by CPET. Design: Prospective study Population: Thirty patients scheduled to undergo surgical or percutaneous treatment of iliofemoral arterial disease for intermittent claudication.
