Active clinical trials for "Peripheral Vascular Diseases"

This is a multi-center, non-randomized, single arm study of the SilverHawk™ /TurboHawk™ plaque excision systems when used in conjunction with SpiderFX™ embolic protection device in treatment of moderate to severely calcified peripheral arterial disease in the superficial femoral and/or popliteal arteries.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of the ABSOLUTE™ .035 peripheral self-expanding stent system in preventing restenosis of occluded or stenotic superficial femoral or proximal popliteal arteries.

Comparison of two kinds of protheses for bridging of the femoropoplitea and/or femorotibiale: PTFE with or without bounded heparin

This study proposes ischemic preconditioning (IPC) as a novel intervention to improve walking distance in patients with intermittent claudication.

NEAT is an observational cohort (Prospective registry of real world data) of patients with coronary and peripheral artery disease in an outopatient setting.

The investigators propose that once daily administration of PF-00489791, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, will reduce vasospasm and improve symptoms and signs associated with Primary and Secondary Raynaud's Phenomenon.

The DEFINITIVE AR study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized pilot study evaluating the use of either the TurboHawk™ or SilverHawk® plaque excision systems followed by treatment with the Cotavance™ drug-eluting balloon catheter versus the Cotavance balloon catheter alone in patients with peripheral arterial disease.

The hypothesis of this proposal is that in subjects with Type II diabetes mellitus (T2D) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) with intermittent claudication (IC), regular consumption of a high nitrate supplement which raises plasma nitrite, in conjunction with 12 weeks of supervised exercise training at the limb ischemic threshold (SET) will produce a greater clinical benefit (increases in claudication onset time [COT] and peak walking time [PWT] relative to a group with the same exercise training but supplemented with placebo .This study is essentially exploratory in nature and designed to provide us with information to adequately develop power and execute a larger study. We have previously seen benefits from nitrate supplementation on function in PAD.

This study will take the first step to improve public health for millions of Americans with Peripheral Arterial Disease who have extreme difficulty walking due to leg pain. The investigators will assess a proof of concept, home administered, functional electrical stimulation (FES) system to resolve pain, improve walking, and enhance quality of life.

The RESTORE trial will determine whether resveratrol supplementation can improve walking performance in older people with lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Resveratrol, a polyphenol and natural supplement, specifically targets several impairments associated with walking difficulty and mobility loss in people with PAD.
