Active clinical trials for "Ischemia"

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the clinical and technical performance of the VRS100 system with disposable surgical kit in the delivery and manipulation of coronary guidewires and stent/balloon systems for use in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).

To date, the benefit of intravenous thrombolysis is confined within 4.5 hours of onset for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients without advanced neuroimaging selection. Unpublished pilot EXIT-BT (EXtending the tIme window of Thrombolysis by ButylphThalide up to 6 Hours after onset) suggest the safety, feasibility and potential benefit of intravenous tenecteplase (TNK) plus Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide (NBP) in AIS within 4.5 to 6 hours of onset. The current study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of TNK plus NBP for AIS within 4.5 to 6 hours of onset.

The goal of this clinical trial (pilot study) is to learn about the microcirculatory regulation of the lower extremity under orthostatic stress with and without RIC - Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in healthy participants. The main question it aims to answer are: Do the beneficial effects of RIC withstand orthostatic stress? / Does RIC benefit lower extremity microcirculation in ortho-statically stressed subjects? Is there a relationship/correlation between the variables of microcirculation and hemodynamics in the context of RIC and orthostatic loading?

The objective of this prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the MAGNITUDE BRS System for the planned treatment of narrowed infrapopliteal lesions. Approximately 300 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio. The clinical investigation will be conducted at approximately 50 clinical sites internationally.

Ischemic post-conditioning is a neuroprotective strategy that has been proven to attenuate reperfusion injury in animal models of stroke. The investigators have conducted a 3 + 3 dose-escalation trial to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of ischemic post-conditioning incrementally for a longer duration of up to 5 min × 4 cycles in stroke patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy. The purpose of this study is to further determine the efficacy and safety of ischemic post-conditioning in patients with acute ischemic stroke who are treated with mechanical thrombectomy.

Partial nephrectomy(PN) and tumor enucleation(TE) are the two main methods of Nephron-sparing surgery for early renal cell carcinoma. Because of its blunt separation, TE is often considered to be difficult to completely remove tumor tissue. In addition, compared with PN, TE is more difficult and has higher professional requirements for surgeons. Therefore most surgeons use PN. But Many studies have shown that TE has advantages over PN such as less trauma, faster recovery, and better protection of renal function without increasing the risk of tumor recurrence. The main renal artery should be clamped during PN to achieve a relatively bloodless operation environment to ensure the safety of tumor resection. However, too long warm ischemia time will inevitably affect the function of normal renal tissue. Studies have shown that shortening the time of renal ischemia is closely related to the recovery of renal function after the operation. So reducing the time of warm ischemia until zero ischemia has become the pursuit of surgeons. Based on renal cell carcinoma resection combined with zero ischemia technique, renal parenchyma, and renal function can be protected to the maximum extent on the premise of ensuring tumor safety. The purpose of this study is to explore the safety and efficacy of zero-ischemia TE by analyzing the data of early renal cell carcinoma patients who had undergone PN and zero-ischemia TE before.

When an individual experiences a sudden onset of neurological symptoms, such as one-sided weakness, visual abnormalities, and/or slurred speech, there is concern that they are having a transient ischemic attack/stroke. A stroke is a medical emergency that requires immediate treatment and further evaluation to prevent a future stroke. Unfortunately, when a patient presents to the emergency department or a clinic with transient or mildly observable neurological symptoms, it is difficult to diagnose a stroke and many times, imaging may not reveal a stroke. This poses the risk of discharging patients without appropriate stroke care. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of administering portable electroencephalogram (EEG) devices to diagnose transient ischemic attack/stroke. An EEG is a device that measures electrical activity in the brain. This study involves comparing EEG data of individuals who present with transient neurological symptoms or have known stroke with EEG data of generally healthy individuals. From this study, the investigators anticipate that it will be feasible to administer portable EEG and that portable EEG can be used to accurately diagnose stroke.

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, phase IV study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sovateltide (PMZ-1620, IRL-1620) as a potential treatment for cerebral ischemic stroke.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of remote ischaemic preconditioning on the peripheral blood characteristics of healthy adults and to explore the possible mechanisms for improving ischaemia/reperfusion injury and its protective effects on the cardiovascular system.

This trial is a single-center, prospective, observational clinical study. All patients who have at least one coronary artery stenosis of 30%-90% in diameter ≥ 2mm confirmed by CCTA, and who are scheduled to undergo clinically indicated invasive coronary angiography (ICA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) evaluation and/or treatment will be eligible for enrollment. We proposed a novel approach that integrates CCTA, ICA and OCT images to automatically measure plaque characterization and calculate CT-FFR using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation and artificial intelligence deep learning.
