Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Versus Treadmill Walking in Peripheral Arterial Disease
Peripheral Arterial Diseasemy study is to determine the effect of pulsed electromagnetic field versus treadmill training in managemet of intemittent claudication in peripheral arterial disease there is a lack of interventions that improves local peripheral blood circulation in ischemic lower limbs . (PEMFs) are a non-pharmacological and non-invasive treatment that can be applied on the affected body part, which penetrates through skin and reaches target tissues . However, there have been few clinical studies reporting the effects of PEMFs on hemodynamic response in people with PAD (

Coronary DiseaseMyocardial Infarction19 moreThe CLIMATE Observational Study examines to what extent chronically ill patients experience adverse health effects because of heat and whether the patients' specific efforts, somatosensory amplification, self-efficacy, health literacy and commitment to the GP, degree of urbanisation of the patients' administration district and characteristics of the patients' neighborhood are associated with these effects.

Effect of Neo40 on PAD
Peripheral Artery DiseaseReduced nitric oxide (NO) availability is a hallmark of a number of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) including peripheral artery disease (PAD). The investigators will test the hypothesis that sub-chronic NEO40™ supplementation will improve vascular NO function and improve intermittent claudication in patients with PAD. Using a prospective, double blind, placebo controlled experimental design in 30 patients, graded treadmill tests will be performed at baseline and after 3 months after randomization, according to the Skinner-Gardner protocol. Initial claudication distance (ICD) and absolute claudication distance (ACD) will be recorded. Two consecutive treadmill tests will be performed within 1 week at baseline (before administration of study drug); and 2 test will be performed at 3 months. Functional status will also be assessed by the Walking Impairment Questionnaire and the Health Status Survey SF-36 questionnaire (SF-36). Vascular function will be assessed with the use of a Vendys® vascular reactivity (endothelial function) test (Endothelix Inc). Digital pulse amplitude will be assessed using sensor probes on the index finger during reactive hyperemia. Blood will be collected for measurement (by Neogenis) of plasma levels of nitrite and nitrate at baseline and at the completion of the study. Based on previously published trials using this NO technology, the investigators predict that the group receiving the active supplement will exhibit an improvement in claudication distance and all measures of vascular function after 3 months.

Paclitaxel Balloon Versus Standard Balloon in In-stent Restenoses of the Superficial Femoral Artery...
Peripheral Arterial DiseaseProspective monocenter single-blind randomized (1:1) investigator sponsored clinical trial, in which consecutive patients candidates for percutaneous intervention of angioplasty to treat symptomatic in-stent restenosis of the SFA and P1 segment of the popliteal artery will be assigned to one of two study arms: Treatment Arm: Paclitaxel eluting percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PePTA) Control Arm: standard percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (sPTA). Purpose: To evaluate the morphologic and clinical efficacy of Paclitaxel eluting percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PePTA) for the reduction of restenosis in SFA and PA stents compared to standard percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (sPTA).

Registry of the Magellan Robotic System
Peripheral Vascular DiseaseThe purpose of the registry is to gather both retrospective and prospective case data on the use of the commercially available Magellan Robotic System and Magellan Robotic Catheters in accordance with the approved intended use. For prospective cases, follow-up patient data will be collected at 14 days (± 5 days) post procedure to assess treatment success, primary patency of intended targeted vessel region, and adverse events. The data will be analyzed for medical education, societal presentation, and/or publication by the investigators. Over the next 2+ years, physicians who meet the selection criteria will be invited to participate in the registry.
