Filter by:The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of recanalization of acute and subacute femoropopliteal stent occlusions with the Rotarex S catheter (Straub Medical)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the results of drug eluting balloon are non-inferior to the Nitinol stent implantation in the femoropopliteal segment.
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate, in a controlled setting, the long-term (up to 12 months) safety and efficacy of the BeGraft Peripheral Stent Graft System (Bentley InnoMed) in clincial settings post CE-certification when used according to the indications of the IFU.
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the short- and long-term (up to 24 months) outcome of treatment by means of dilation with the Passeo-18 Lux drug releasing balloon and by Pulsar-18 stent implantation in symptomatic (Rutherford 2-4) femoro-popliteal arterial stenotic or occlusive lesions.
Over the past years, arterial closure systems have tended to replace manual compression to ensure hemostasis at femoral artery puncture points. Arterial closure systems reduce hemostasis and patient immobilization times, thus enabling early resumption of walking. These devices have contributed extensively to the development of outpatient stays for cardiology, vascular and neuro-radiology procedures. According to certain studies however, it would appear that arterial closure devices do not present any greater benefits than manual compression in terms of hemostasis and complications. Moreover, the use of increasingly small diameter instruments would tend to render manual compression sufficient. Finally, the use of these devices generates additional costs. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of manual compression before early resumption of walking in patients managed by conventional hospitalization for a diagnostic or therapeutic endovascular procedures by retrograde femoral puncture with 5F guide catheter.
The pathophysiology of acute ischemic pain is not well established. The aim of the present study was to investigate acute ischemic pain in humans with a view to establish a scientific model to perform future studies. The investigators examined whether peripheral nerve damage and acute inflammation occur during short episodes of acute ischemia.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) results in blockages of arteries (blood vessels) in the legs and decreased blood flow to the legs. This may cause difficulty or pain with walking or other activities that use leg muscles. Exercise may help improve blood flow in the legs and improve the ability to walk. This research project is being implemented in adults with PAD to examine the effects of exercise or weight loss programs on lower extremity blood flow, health, and physical function.
The overall goal of this multicenter collaborative research study is to identify genetic, proteomic, and/or lipidic (lipidomic) biomarkers associated with the outcomes of lower extremity revascularization in patients with advanced peripheral artery disease (PAD).
Specific cardiovascular diseases, such as stroke and heart attack, have been shown to vary by ethnic group. However, less is known about differences between ethnic groups and a wider range of cardiovascular diseases. This study will examine differences between ethnic groups (White, Black, South Asian and Mixed/Other) and first lifetime presentation of twelve different cardiovascular diseases. This information may help to predict the onset of cardiovascular diseases and inform disease prevention strategies. The hypothesis is that different ethnic groups have differing associations with the range of cardiovascular diseases studied.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the Zilver® PTX® Drug-Eluting Peripheral Stent for treatment of lesions of the above-the-knee femoropopliteal artery in a Chinese patient population.
