View clinical trials related to Peripheral Arterial Disease.
Filter by:Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a frequent and serious chronic disease witch is undertreated. The recommended management of PAD include pharmacological approach and lifestyle modifications. Patient education help to reach this outcome. Our study propose to compare patient education management with physical activity coaching to usual care.
This trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA) to prevent or delay major amputation and/or death in subjects with critical limb ischemia (CLI) due to severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
This research study will evaluate the effects of aspirin and dipyridamole alone and in combination on the blood flow in the vessels of the legs. We will examine how these medications are able to inhibit the clotting of platelets in the vessels of patients with PAD, and thereby affect the blood flow in the legs. Platelets are cells in the blood that have the ability to adhere to each other to form clots.
The purpose of this study is to compare the different endovascular treatment modalities for the femoropopliteal segment, and to determine technical success, efficacy and patency at mid-term follow-up. Modalities include; Angioplasty/stent (Control group, Guidant), Cryoplasty/stent (Boston Scientific), Laser Angioplasty/stent (Spectranetics), SilverHawk Atherectomy/stent (Fox Hollow), and Viabahn Endograft (WL Gore).
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Minnow Medical GRST™ Peripheral Catheter System in the treatment of de novo lesions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) or the popliteal artery.
This investigation is designed to assess the immediate and long-term angiographic patency outcomes of excimer laser recanalisation followed by PTA in the treatment of long (>50 mm) infrapopliteal lesions in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) The Spectranetics Turbo elite™ excimer laser catheters are percutaneous intravascular devices constructed of multiple optical fibers around a guidewire lumen. The laser catheters transmit ultraviolet energy from the Spectranetics CVX-300® Excimer Laser System to the obstruction in the artery. The ultraviolet energy is delivered to the tip of the laser catheter to photo-ablate fibrous, calcific and atheromatous lesions, thus recanalizing diseased vessels.
This study aims at investigating the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance angiography using the contrast agent Vasovist® in the detection of relevant vascular narrowing of the lower extremity. Patients who have been scheduled for intra-arterial conventional angiography are eligible for this trial.
A 12-Week Efficacy Study in participants with Peripheral Arterial Disease. the primary hypothesis is that MK-0736 7 mg administered once daily for 12 weeks will result in a decrease in lower extremity atherosclerotic plaque macrophage content when compared to placebo (an approximate decrease of up to 30% is expected).
The primary patency of the GORE PROPATEN Vascular Graft is equivalent to or better than disadvantaged autologous vein graft in an infragenicular peripheral bypass application at 12 months.
This research project is investigating the relationship between body weight and function of the leg veins using a special non-invasive technique known as venous plethysmography.
