Filter by: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.
This study is intended to collect safety and effectiveness data on the Cook Injectable Small Intestinal Submucosa (SIS)
This first-in-man study is to evaluate the Drug-Coated Chocolate (DCC) Balloon for percutaneous arterial angioplasty in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease. The study focuses on acute device performance and peri-procedural safety and also seeks to further characterize the performance of the device.
This is the second part of a research study in order to determine if using a specialized pulse oximetry probe with external heat pack will help obtain oxygen saturation (SaO2) and heart rate (HR) during monitoring for patients with peripheral vascular disease (PVD), vasoconstriction, and hypothermic extremities. The inability to obtain accurate SaO2 and pulse readings can lead to misdiagnosis, incorrect treatment, or procedures to be canceled. SaO2 and pulse readings are important to maintain patient stability during diagnostic testing, surgical procedures and monitoring while in critical care areas. Changes in SaO2 and pulse are important to monitor in order to be able to compensate for any decrease in patient oxygen saturations during hemodynamic monitoring. The primary aim of this study is to determine if using a specialized pulse oximetry probe with external heat pack will improve oxygenation readings in order to obtain SaO2 and pulse readings in patients with PVD, vasoconstriction, and hypothermic extremities as compared to readings obtained from an arterial blood gas. The hypothesis is using a specialized pulse oximetry probe with external heat pack will help obtain more accurate pulse oximetry readings consistent with values obtained with an arterial blood gas.
IVUS imaging will be utilized to assess performance of the Sponsor's Orbital Atherectomy System (OAS) followed by adjunctive balloon angioplasty (BA) in patients who have symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) occurring in the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA), Popliteal (POP), and/or Tibioperoneal Trunk (TPT).
The proposed PIVOTAL study will examine a panel of platelet/coagulation activity markers during the perioperative period. The goal is to develop a clinically useful assessment of platelet/coagulation activity for risk stratification that may ultimately serve as a target for therapeutic intervention. This study will enroll 200 patients with peripheral artery disease undergoing vascular surgery. PIVOTAL is funded by American Heart Association and is scheduled to begin enrollment in July 2013 for approximately two years.
This is a randomised controlled study of patients suffering from intermittent claudication (IC), to assess the impact of wearing a Nike FuelBand (NFB) on walking distances, exercise levels and quality of life.
This is a single-arm, single-center, open-label, pilot study . 30 subjects with foot symptoms attributable to diabetes or peripheral vascular disease will be screened . Subjects meeting inclusion criteria will sign informed consent and enrolled. All 30 subjects will be treated with the Magic Foot™. If there is any significant improvement in ICG or foot symptoms as obtained from self evaluation questionnaire, a further 30 subjects will be enrolled.
Several studies have shown that stenting of the femoropopliteal artery in the lower leg leads to improved overall results compared to balloon angioplasty alone. However, scar tissue development can occur within the stent, a process called restenosis. Treatment of these in-stent restenotic lesions has a high procedural success rate but recurrence of scar tissue is frequently seen. Several methods have been proposed to treat in-stent restenosis in the lower leg arteries but mixed results have been noted. In this study we hypothesize that simultaneous tissue excision and aspiration using the JetStream Navitus device (Medrad) can lead to a high rate of acute procedural success with low intraprocedural complications and an acceptable recurrence rate of restenosis at 6-month follow-up.
A multi-center, post-CE Mark study designed to evaluate the performance of the Intact Vascular Tack-IT Endovascular Stapler™ in subjects with vascular flaps (e.g.; post-angioplasty dissection) resulting from percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA) of superficial femoral or popliteal artery(ies).
