Filter by:Although randomized trials have demonstrated there is no benefit of renal-artery stenting in addition to medical therapy for patients with atherosclerosis renal artery stenosis, many patients indeed gained benefit in daily practices after stenting, such as reduction in blood pressure and recovery in renal functions. One important gap is that there is no universal standard to determine whether to stent in these patients. Fraction Flow Reserve (FFR) has been studied for many year in chronic coronary heart disease and FFR-guided revascularization strategy is known to be better than both angiography-guided revascularization and medication alone. Based on the primary finding of FAIR-pilot study (NCT05732077), FFR-guided renal artery stenting is practical. The overall purpose of the FAIR trial is to compare the clinical outcomes and safety of FFR-guided stenting plus optimal medical treatment (OMT) versus OMT alone in patients with renal-vascular hypertensive patients. With the 'all comers' design, participants met the inclusive/exclusive criteria will be enrolled, and hyperemic FFR induced by dopamine will be measured in all participants. If FFR is ≥0.80, patients will be treated with OMT alone and follow up. If FFR is <0.80, participants will be randomized to stenting in the renal artery plus OMT or OMT alone on a 1:1 ratio. The blood pressure and anti-hypertensive medications will be compared before and 3 months after the procedure based on ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, all participants will be followed up for 1 year.
The study will test the efficacy of drug eluting balloon(DEB) for non-atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis. The DEB (paclitaxel eluting balloon) will be used in the intervention group, while the plain old balloon(POB) will be used in the control group. The primary outcome is the effect of blood pressure control.
The goal of this clinical trial is to document a beneficial effect of percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis in high-risk patients selected according to the criteria used in the DAN-PTRA study. The main questions the trial aims to answer are if renal artery stenting compared with optimal medical treatment alone has beneficial effects on: - Blood pressure - Kidney function - Hospitalizations for heart failure
Although randomized trials have demonstrated there is no benefit of renal-artery stenting in addition to medical therapy for patients with atherosclerosis renal artery stenosis, many patients indeed gained benefit in daily practices after stenting, such as reduction in blood pressure and recovery in renal functions. One important gap is that there is no universal standard to determine whether to stent in these patients. Fraction Flow Reserve (FFR) has been studied for many year in chronic coronary heart disease and FFR-guided revascularization strategy is known to be better than both angiography-guided revascularization and medication alone. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether Fraction Flow Reserve (FFR) is appropriate to determine stenting in hypertension patients with atherosclerosis renal artery stenosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is it appropriate to use FFR to determine whether or not stenting for hypertension patients with atherosclerosis renal artery stenosis? - To provide detailed data supporting design of further trial, such as sample size calculating, cut-off value for FFR in renal artery stenosis, etc. Participants met the inclusive/exclusive criteria will be randomized to stenting or not in the renal artery, then hyperemic FFR induced by dopamine will be measured in all participants. If FFR is ≥0.80, randomization will be applied. If FFR is <0.80, randomization will be ignored, and stenting will be performed as planned. The blood pressure and anti-hypertensive medications will be compared before and 3 months after the procedure based on ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, all participants will be followed up for 1 year.
The Carbostent™ Radix 2 stent is a CE marked balloon expandable bare metal stent for the treatment of renal artery stenosis. The aim of this post-market retrospective study protocol P12204, is to collect clinical data on patients treated with the RADIX 2 stent in routine clinical practice. In order to obtain long-term follow-up data, the data collection will be limited to patients that have been treated with the Radix 2 stent at least 12 months prior to the study start.
The clinical benefits of endovascular treatment in renal artery stenosis remain controversial. This study uses arterial spin labelling MRI and flat-panel detector parenchymal blood volume imaging to observe the change in renal perfusion after endovascular treatment in renal artery stenosis.
Transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS) is abnormal narrowing of the main blood vessel to the kidney transplant and has historically been considered a surgical complication. In heart transplantation, it has long been recognised that rejection can cause narrowing of the heart's blood vessels, and that this complication is the leading cause of heart transplant failure. It is reasonable to assume that this process may also occur in kidney transplantation, which could contribute to premature transplant failure. However, in kidney transplantation it is also likely that other factors, such as surgical factors, traditional cardiovascular risk factors and immunological factors, contribute to the development of TRAS. Given that the disease processes that cause TRAS are not fully understood, at present there is no consensus among kidney doctors on the best means of treating patients diagnosed with TRAS. The aim of the proposed study is to investigate the involvement of these different processes in the development of TRAS, and investigate the optimal way to diagnose and manage TRAS. At present, there is no standard recommendation for how to treat patients with TRAS. This is partly due to the fact that patients with TRAS may have a broad array of symptoms: Some may have no symptoms, other may have problems with high blood pressure or fluid accumulation, and others may have severe transplant dysfunction. In most transplant centres, patient TRAS and severe symptoms will undergo IADSA and a stent will be placed to open the narrowing. However, it is not clear how best to manage patients with TRAS who have mild to moderate symptoms. We propose to recruit 36 such patients to a clinical study and split them into two groups: One group to undergo IADSA with possible stent placement, and one group to be closely observed. We will then compare transplant function, and other outcomes, after one year between the two groups.
This study evaluates the role of advanced US technology in assessing renal transplants as screening tools such as 3D Ultrasound, Ultrasound SWE, and MFI besides current ultrasound conventional metheds.
Efficacy of drug eluting balloon(DEB) for non-atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis will be tested in this study. The intervention group will be treated with paclitaxel eluting balloon. The control group will be treated with plain old balloon(POB). The primary endpoint is efficacy of blood pressure control.
The anastomotic and peripheral stenosis of the transplanted kidney artery is one of the most important causes of graft failure in renal transplantation. The injury of vascular intima and the formation of microthrombosis may play a significant role in the stenosis of transplanted renal artery of recipients. Inhibiting this process with aspirin may protects against the stenosis of transplanted renal artery. This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of prevention of renal artery stenosis in recipients.
