Filter by:The aim of this study is to study the effects of athrectomy followed by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty using Paclitaxel coated Drug Eluting Balloon (DEB) in treating de novo or re-stenotic lesions in the femoral-popliteal artery in patients with symptomatic peripheral vascular disease in an Asian population. The intention is to study the effects of debulking athrectomy followed by application of DEBs to prevent restenosis, resulting in improved patency rates The study will prospectively recruit 8 cases treated with athrectomy followed by DEB. This project is a pilot to investigate the effects of athrectomy and DEB in reducing re-stenosis rates. It will be a primer for a larger scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving multiple institutions to demonstrate the benefit of athrectomy and DEB technology to treat de novo versus plain balloon angioplasty with bail-out stenting, which is currently the most commonly used modality to treat femoral-popliteal lesions. There are no studies combining the effect of rotational athrectomy and DEBs.
Patients undergoing semi-elective lower extremity major amputation from complications associated with atherosclerotic limb ischemia will received intra-muscular injections of allogeneic Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in the leg above and below the point of amputation to prevent ischemic wound complications after surgery and decrease the incidence of revision and further amputation. Cohort Groups 1-4 will serve as controls.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the In.Pact Admiral DEB for the treatment of popliteal lesions in comparison with literature results of stent treatment in popliteal lesions
With the increasing aging population demographics and life expectancies, the number of very elderly patients undergoing surgery is rising. Elderly patients constitute an increasingly large proportion of the high-risk surgical group. Cardiac complications and postoperative pulmonary complications are equally prevalent and contribute similarly to morbidity, mortality, and length of hospital stay. Specific optimization strategy of general anesthesia has been tested in high-risk patients undergoing major surgery to improve outcomes. Our hypothesis is that a combined optimization strategy of anesthesia concerning hemodynamic, ventilation, and depth of anesthesia may improve short- and long- term outcome in elderly undergoing high risk surgery.
This is a Phase 4, randomized clinical trial to evaluate whether addition of Vorapaxar 2.08 mg daily vs. placebo daily on background antiplatelet therapy, prescribed for 6 months to patients with established peripheral artery disease (PAD) and Intermittent Claudication (IC) treated with standard medical therapy (SMT) would lead to an improvement in the peak walking time (PWT).
Aim: To determine whether the lactate threshold during CPET is influenced by the presence of haemodynamically significant PAD. Assumption: Correction of haemodynamically significant PAD results in an increased LT, measured by CPET. Design: Prospective study Population: Thirty patients scheduled to undergo surgical or percutaneous treatment of iliofemoral arterial disease for intermittent claudication.
The BARD® Venovo™ Venous Stent Study is a non-randomized clinical study intended to collect confirmatory evidence of the safety and effectiveness of the Venous Stent for the treatment of iliofemoral occlusive disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an excimer laser in the treatment of patients with lower extremity vascular disease with chronic total occlusions.
Peripheral arterial disease is a common condition affecting approximately 64% of 56-77 year olds. This condition restricts bloody supply to calf muscles. Pain occurs after walking a short distance and increases in intensity until the person stops, where the pain then gradually subsides. It can be limiting or occasionally debilitating and has been shown to have considerable deleterious effects of patients quality of life. Shock wave therapy has been shown to promote new blood vessel formation and improved healing amongst other findings. This study aims to identify whether shock wave therapy that is applied to the calf muscles causes such an effect to improve the blood supply to the calf muscles, reduce pain, improve walking ability and quality of life.
PREVEIL is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm clinical trial to assess the safety and functionality of the SurModics drug coated balloon (DCB) in the treatment of subjects with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) due to de novo stenoses of the femoral and popliteal arteries. The trial will enroll up to 15 subjects.
