Filter by:Feasibility, usability and safety clinical study that is aimed at testing of the non-invasive VOTIS PedCheck system for measurement of changes in absorption of light in order to derive changes in perfusion and oxygen levels in the foot.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the Thor system in adult (≥ 18 year old) patients with de novo (new, never treated) calcified lesions in infrainguinal (leg) arteries (peripheral artery disease or PAD). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is the Thor system safe in treating these lesions - Does the Thor system work to treat these lesions Participants will: - Receive treatment with the Thor system - Have follow-up visits at Discharge, 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months
This is a Phase IIa, multi-centre study conducted at 3 sites in Singapore (SGH and NUHS, KTPH). 70 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) will be randomised in a ratio 1:1 to receive normal saline control or MEDI6570 400mg by monthly subcutaneous injection for 9 months.
Atherosclerosis and diabetes are related to coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease. The mechanisms are related to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and inflammatory cytokine secretion. However, simply using antioxidant or anti-inflammatory therapies has no optimal outcomes. On the other hand, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) which has both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects could effectively attenuate ROS production and reduce vascular inflammation. Hence, we will investigate the effect of NAC treatment on the outcomes in patients with advanced atherosclerotic heart diseases and patients with diabetes combined with significant peripheral artery disease.
This study is to compare and evaluate the effect of improving the carotid IMT and lipid level of the Cilostazol/Ginkgo leaf extract group with the aspirin administrated group in patients with diabetic peripheral angiopathy.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Smart flex stent system in treating long femoropopliteal native lesions.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of Chocolate balloons as a combination with drug-coated balloons in the treatment of popliteal artery lesions in lower limb atherosclerotic occlusive disease and will compare them with conventional balloons.
This study is evaluating whether a therapeutic ultrasound device can improve symptoms in the leg of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) patients 65 years of age and over.
Mortality due to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Spain accounted for 29% of all deaths (32% in women and 26% in men) in 2017. Out of those, 67% were related to a coronary or a cerebrovascular disease . A key strategy in primary prevention of CVD is to use risk functions to individualize preventive interventions for each patient. The current CV risk-screening program in some regions of Spain, is based using an adapted Framingham scale, REGICOR's risk function, which is integrated in the primary care electronic health record. This risk function predicts the probability within 10 years of developing a coronary event. However, this function fails to identify patients that fall into low- or intermediate-risk level, and might develop a CV event in the up following 10 years. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a simple, non-invasive and economic technique, which allows detecting peripheral arterial disease (PAD), and gives independent risk function information compared to other coronary risk functions. Even tough, between 13-27% of middle age population have an ABI ≤ 9, around 50-89% of them do not exhibit any symptoms. However, they hold higher mortality risk and CV events. Current clinical guidelines for PAD screening, have a limited level of evidence, and only recommend using ABI on patients aged 50-70, who have diabetes or are smokers, and patients older than 70 years old. A new risk function, REASON, to assess CVD risk has been designed. This model has proven to improve predictive capacity of holding an ABI ≤ 0.9 on those patients aged 50-74 that are apparently free of CVD. Therefore, a strategy that combines the current CV risk estimation using REGICOR, and the prediction capacity of pathologic ABI with REASON, would allow detecting high-risk patients with a PAD screening program. It is possible that patients, who hold an ABI ≤ 0.9, even if being asymptomatic, will adopt physician's recommendations on healthy life habits and preventive treatment. The aims of this study are: - To assess the effectiveness and cost-utility of adding a screening program with ABI to the current strategy of CV risk detection to reduce the incidence of CVD and mortality from all causes in the population aged 50 to 74. - To assess the effectiveness of adding a screening program with ABI to the current strategy of CV risk detection to improve cardiovascular risk factors in the population aged 50 to 74.
The Disrupt PAD III study was designed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with an additional observational registry component. The registry, referred to as the Disrupt PAD III Observational Study (PAD III OS), was a global, prospective, multi-center, single-arm registry of the Shockwave Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System. The objective of this study was to assess the real-world acute performance of IVL in the treatment of calcified, stenotic, peripheral arteries that may not qualify for inclusion in the RCT. The study was designed to enroll a maximum of 1500 subjects from up to 60 global sites with a minimum of 200 subjects treated with the S4 IVL catheter, a line extension designed to treat smaller diameter peripheral vessels, including calcified below-the-knee (BTK) lesions. Subjects were required to have target lesions in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, or infra-popliteal arteries with at least moderate calcification as determined by the investigator, defined as calcification within the lesion on both sides of the vessel assessed by angiography. Adjunctive therapies such as atherectomy, specialty balloons, and stents were allowed. Subjects were followed through discharge.
