Filter by:The goal of this observational pilot data acquisition study is to establish if target users can obtain diagnostic quality images in the clinic, from participants with Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), and SSc spectrum conditions. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can a range of healthcare professionals, including non-specialists, use the capillaroscopy image acquisition system to take high quality images that can be used to create a clinical report? - Can the investigators collect user and patient feedback on the usability of the capillaroscopy system, to help develop the software and to develop the clinical report - Which microscope light source, from four different light wavelengths is better to see the blood vessels in skin with more melanin content. Participants will be asked to attend a single clinic visit where they will undergo a brief, non-invasive nailfold capillaroscopy examination, using the software-guided capillaroscopy system. Participants and rheumatology healthcare professionals will be invited to take part in one or more focus groups and interviews, to collect feedback and to contribute to the development of the image acquisition software and the clinical report.
The main objective is to assess the feasibility of treatment by injecting botulinum toxin A into the hand or foot of patients with signs of critical ischemia secondary to Buerger's disease. The injection of botulinum toxin A is carried out at the end of a single session during an hospitalization. Furthermore, tolerance and effects on the disease are evaluated at 1, 3 and 6 months post injections.
In this feasibility study, we aim to explore therapeutic Rheopheresis (RheoP) as a novel treatment option for SSc-associated Raynaud's phenomenon and/or digital ulcers and compare it to the standard of care treatment (intravenous iloprost. RheoP has been used for RP/DU with some success in observational studies, nevertheless, the optimal treatment modality, duration, or frequency of RheoP (and PEX in general) in SSc has not been established as of yet.
Raynaud's Phenomenon (RP) is the most common vasospastic disorder encountered by hand surgeons with an estimated prevalence of 5% in the general population. It's manifestations are broad, and can range from minor to severe. Sometimes it can be refractory to treatments. The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Botulinum toxin (BT) in the treatment of treatment refractory RP by objective and subjective measures.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral temanogrel improves digital blood flow in participants with Raynaud's phenomenon secondary to systemic sclerosis (SSc-RP) as a potential safe and effective treatment for symptoms associated with SSc-RP.
To determine if blue light therapy can improve the symptoms of Raynaud's phenomenon, and provide parameters for ultimately designing commercial treatment devices, an investigational stationary phototherapy unit was designed and built.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effect of Apollo (a vibrating wearable about the side of an Apple Watch) on fatigue, Raynaud symptoms, depression, quality of life, and disease symptoms in patients with systemic sclerosis. SSc patients frequently have fatigue as a characteristic feature of their disease and fatigue negatively impacts quality of life (Haythornthwaite 2003, Richards 2003, Suarez-Almazor 2007, Basta 2017). The prevalence of fatigue among SSc patients is 75%, with 61% ranking fatigue among their top three most distressing complaints. Fatigue is also associated with poor sleep quality, greater pain and depressive symptoms (Sandusky 2009). We hypothesize that treatment with Apollo over 1 month will improve fatigue. If successful, the Apollo technology will be the first treatment option for fatigue and Raynaud's in this population.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety, and evaluate the efficacy of GS-248 versus placebo on Raynaud's Phenomenon (RP) in subjects with Systemic Sclerosis (SSc).
Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) is very frequent in general population (up to 10%). Nailfold capillaroscopy (NFC) is recommended for patients presenting RP, to eliminate systemic disease such as systemic sclerosis. NFC is not easily available in clinical practice. Dermoscopy, used for pigmentary skin lesion screening, may help to detect giant loops, hemorrhages or other capillaries anomalies. However, no study has evaluated the performance of dermoscopy in primary RP. The objective is to determinate which items in dermoscopy are correlated with a normal NFC and predict with a good negative predictive value, a normal NFC in RP patients. The secondary objective is to assess inter-observer reproducibility of dermoscopy in patients with RP.
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over phase 2 trial investigating the effect of C21 on cold-induced vasoconstriction in subjects with Raynaud's phenomenon secondary to systemic sclerosis. The purpose of the trial is to achieve a vasodilatory effect in subjects with Raynaud's phenomenon by stimulation of the AT2R (angiotensin II type 2 receptor) with C21.
