Filter by:The Low dose ColchicinE in pAtients with peripheral Artery DiseasE to address residual vascular Risk (LEADER-PAD) trial will evaluate if anti-inflammatory therapy with colchicine will reduce vascular events in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease.
This study is a prospective, interventional, multicenter 1:1 randomized trial. The trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of the Magic Touch PTA sirolimus drug-coated balloon in comparison to the treatment with POBA (control device) in patients with advanced infrapopliteal artery disease.
Cardiovascular disease represents a considerable economic burden to society and effective preventive measures are necessary. Patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have a severe impairment of functional ability, namely in walking distance due to muscle ischemia defined as intermittent claudication (IC). The discomfort related to IC contributes to a sedentary lifestyle, decreasing physical fitness level, aggravating cardiovascular risk factors leading to disease deterioration. Exercise programs are an effective, low-cost, low-risk option compared with more invasive therapies for IC. Home-based exercise therapy (HBET) is structured, unsupervised, self-directed programs that take place in the personal setting of the patient rather than in a clinical setting. HBET program implementation is feasible and eliminates barriers such as transportation issues, proximity to clinics, and conflicts with occupational responsibilities. Even though these programs have shown to be effective at improving walking performance and distance, their results fall below those seen in Supervised Exercise Therapy (SET) programs. Thus, innovative home-based walking programs need to be developed in order to improve results and make exercise therapy available to a larger percentage of the population. The use of Information and communication technology (ICT) tools for self-monitoring is considered key to change long-term behavior. The WalkingPAD project aims to develop health technology assessment methods and evaluate personal health intervention strategies. Investigators intend to demonstrate the technical feasibility and economic viability of a personalized medicine application in real-life healthcare settings. This project intends to find evidence for three major questions: Does an M-health monitored home-based exercise program supported by a virtual assistant empowers commitment to exercise plan and allows remote control of plan accomplishment? Is it superior to an M-health monitored home-based exercise program supported by a behavioral motivational intervention, in increasing maximum walking distance? Is it superior to a self-monitoring exercise, with a specific self-designed walking plan in the residence area, in increasing maximum walking distance?
Critical Limb Ischaemia (CLI) is a condition characterized by chronic ischemic at-rest pain, ulcers, or gangrene for more than 2 weeks in one or both legs, attributable to objectively proven arterial occlusive disease.CLI is associated with a high risk of lower amputation, diminished quality of life and mortality. Revascularization by either bypass surgery or endovascular recanalization is considered the first-choice treatment in patients with CLI. Revascularization is not always possible because patients with CLI often have severe comorbidities or because it is not technically feasible. On the basis of their well-recognized regenerative and angiogenetic properties, cell therapy with autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) has been proposed and tested in different animal models and in some human pathological conditions characterized by peripheral ischemia and wound formation.
The objective of this all-comers registry is to explore the safety, efficacy, and cost-efficiency of the LUMINOR© DEB in de-novo and restenotic-FP lesions. For de-novo and restenotic lesions, especially for calcified and/or long lesions/occlusions, the use of debulking devices to improve recalibration and drug penetration will be evaluated in a specific sub-group.
A research project capturing experiences of patients with critical limb threatening ischemia, with the ultimate goal of setting new standards for diagnosing, describing detailed patient-centered outcomes, and evaluating the variability in therapeutic approaches and their association with outcomes.
Two hundred patients evaluated to undergo revascularization (elective/emergent, surgical/interventional) for lower limb PAD at the cantonal hospital of Aarau, Switzerland, will, after consenting to participate in the study, be asked to fill up both SF-36 and VascuQol-6 questionnaires while sitting in a waiting room before the procedure and during the 30 days and 1-year routine follow up. An electronic version of the questionnaires will be administered on a tablet. The primary goal is to validate the clinical use of the German electronic version of the VascuQol-6 questionnaire to assess patient-related outcomes of the performed treatment by patients with PAD.
The ELEGANCE Registry's objective is to collect Real-World Data (RWD), including populations previously not represented in Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) trials, health economics data, and to support the safe use of commercially available Boston Scientific Corporation (BSC) drug-eluting devices for the treatment of lesions located in the peripheral vasculature.
The study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the AngioSafe Peripheral CTO Crossing System.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of microwave ablation catheter in the treatment of varicose veins in lower extremities,meanwhile, to compare the quality of subjects'lives before and after treatment.
