Active clinical trials for "Ischemia"

The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of using the Life Recovery Systems ThermoSuit Device to induce therapeutic hypothermia (32-34°C) in victims of ischemic stroke. This feasibility clinical study will enroll a total of 30 patients with acute ischemic stroke at four clinical centers. Subjects will receive hypothermia plus conventional therapy (such as IV-tPA and/or neurothrombectomy therapies if indicated). Endpoints will include feasibility of cooling, adverse events, and neurological recovery in comparison with matched historical controls.

The purpose of the ABSORB BTK Clinical Investigation is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Everolimus Eluting Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold System (BVS) in subjects with critical limb ischemia (CLI) following percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) of the tibial arteries.

This study will determine the effect of QPI-1007 on visual function in subjects with recent-onset NAION and assess the safety and tolerability of intravitreal injections of QPI-1007 in this population. This study will also evaluate the structural changes in the retina following administration of QPI-1007.

The objective of this multi-centre, randomized controlled trial is to investigate the outcome after induced hypertension versus no induced hypertension in patients with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and to assess whether induced hypertension results in improved cerebral blood flow (CBF) as measured by means of perfusion-CT.

The purpose of this study is to determine if systemic cooling to a target temperature of 34 to 35°C, started within 6 hours of symptom onset and maintained for 12 hours, improves functional outcome at 3 months in patients with acute ischaemic stroke.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of predilation with paclitaxel-eluting balloon and bare metal stent implantation VS conventional balloon and drug-eluting stent implantation in terms of restenosis

In this randomized clinical trial (RCT) the investigators are trying to find out whether a low-dose therapy with daily short infusions of urokinase using 10 to 21 doses over a maximum of 30 days is capable of prolonging the survival time without major amputation.

Intramyocardial, NOGA guided injection of bone marrow derived mononuclear cells in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease and LVEF < 40%. The primary objective is to determine whether the administration of the cells improves recovery of the left ventricular function. Secondary objective is the finding of clinical or paraclinical parameters to predict potential benefits of the treatment (basing on MRI characteristics such as size, transmurality of the myocardial infarction and peri-lesional ischemia). In the first part of the study 10 patients are treated without control group. This phase serves as feasibility and safety part of the study.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Janus OPTIMA Tacrolimus-Eluting Stent (Optima TES, CID) for the treatment of de novo coronary lesions when associated with short-term (two months) dual antiplatelet (aspirin + clopidogrel) regimen.

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcranial ultrasound (US) as an adjunctive therapy to tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) treatment in subjects with acute ischemic stroke.
