Filter by:This is a single center, multispecialty, randomized double blind placebo control feasibility clinical trial. The purpose is to evaluate the safety, feasibility and efficacy of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in treating extracranial venous obstructive lesions, and its influence on the clinical outcomes of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients that have been found to have chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI).
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that patients will improve the immediate treatment outcomes from successive radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of incompetent perforator veins (IPVs).
Part I: Proof of concept trial to achieve normal venous pressure values under different provocation maneuvers in healthy persons Part II: Non invasive measurement of venous pressure under different provocation maneuvers in patients with chronic venous disease
The purpose of this study is: -item one to use two new non-invasive technologies to evaluate scarring and swelling associated with chronic venous insufficiency. The study hypothesis: - item one non-invasive technologies can provide a tool for assessing risk of ulcer development based on the tissue edema and alteration.
A multicenter Random Clinical Trial to confirm the advantage of the valve reconstructive surgery on Primary Chronic Venous Insufficiency.
The investigators plan to perform an exploratory study to investigate the effects of electro-stimulation of the legs on the symptoms and clinical findings of post thrombotic syndrome (PTS), as well as quality of life of patients with PTS. The investigators theorize that electro-stimulation will provide both a mechanical benefit via muscular contraction and increased venous outflow from the affected extremity, as well as an anesthetic effect, which the investigators anticipate will translate into improved symptomatic outcomes, quality of life (QOL) benefits.
To assess the efficacy and tolerability of Antistax film coated tablets in patients with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI, CEAP Classification: Clinical class 3 and 4a).
Varicose veins are a common problem, affecting up to a third of the western adult population. Most suffer with aching, discomfort, pruritis, and muscle cramps, whilst complications include oedema, eczema, lipodermatosclerosis, ulceration, phlebitis, and bleeding. This is known to have a significant negative effect on patient's quality of life (QoL). Surgery has been used for many years, but it is known that there is a temporary decline in QoL post-op. This was demonstrated in our pilot study. Surgery leads to painful and prolonged recovery in some patients and has the risks of infection, haematoma and nerve injury. Recurrence rates are known to be significant. Duplex of veins post surgery has demonstrated persistent reflux in 9-29% of cases at 1 year, 13-40% at 2 years, 40% at 5 years and 60% at 34 years. 26% of NHS patients were 'very dissatisfied' with their varicose vein surgery. Newer, less invasive treatments are being developed. It would be advantageous to find a treatment that avoided the morbidity of surgery, one that could be performed as a day-case procedure under a local anaesthetic, a treatment that could offer lower recurrence rates and allow an early return to work. These should be the aims of any new treatment for varicose veins. Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) is performed under a local anaesthetic and uses laser energy delivered into the vein to obliterate it. The vein therefore need not be tied off surgically and stripped out. The aim of this study is to compare the clinical, cost effectiveness and safety of Surgery and EVLT.
The main objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that a 3 week intensive course of spa therapy can reduce the risk of leg ulcers in patients with advanced chronic venous insufficiency (C4a-b and C5 of the CEAP classification) at one year.
The purpose of this study is to assess the therapeutic efficacy and safety of Venocur Triplex®, administered BID for 60 days in patients with Chronic Venous Insufficiency rated between CEAP 2 and 4, in comparison to a Placebo group.
