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.
This is a retrospective, multi-center study to assess the safety and performance by proactively reviewing pre-existing medical records and imaging of patients who had previous placement of FLUENCY® PLUS Vascular Stent Graft in iliac artery vessel(s) between January 2010 and March 2020.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of ultrasound perfusion imaging technique for assessing the progression of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and monitoring its response to therapy by measuring changes in microvessel alterations and perfusion variations.
Registry to describe the impact in terms of effectiveness and safety of the combination treatment of rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily with aspirin on clinical outcomes and practices in a real-life Dutch patient population that are at high risk of ischemic events.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing brief psychological intervention to help patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), reduce cardiovascular risk factors compared to control/treatment as usual in a vascular outpatient clinic. Trial feasibility was defined as the successful recruitment and retention of participants, adherence to the intervention, identification of barriers to the intervention and collection of clinical and quality of life outcome data. Qualitative data was collected to evaluate participant experience and the clinical impact of a supported self-management intervention delivered in a routine clinical setting.
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.
Tissue perfusion assessment is key to more accurate measurement of foot ischemia, which is in turn an important factor in appropriate treatment decisions. In practice though, tissue perfusion measurements are not routinely undertaken as few practical solutions exist that are easy to use and fit in everyday clinical practice. Pedra has developed a novel, easy to use, non-invasive device that can be used in practice to better inform treatment decisions.
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.
