Active clinical trials for "Constriction, Pathologic"

Cerebral circulation time in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis was found to be associated with hyperperfusion syndrome. Remote ischemic preconditioning can change the ability of cerebral autoregulation. The prospective, randomized controlled, blind outcome evaluation, multi-center study aimed to investigate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning on cerebral circulation time in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis.

Nocturnal calf cramps is a common complaint in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of baclofen in lumbar spinal stenosis patients receiving conservative therapy. We will compare pain score, insomnia severity, functional ability and patient satisfaction between control (conservative management for spinal stenosis) and baclofen group (conservative management for spinal stenosis plus baclofen treatment).

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to characterize the safety of the next-generation FlexNav™ Delivery System for transfemoral implantation of the Portico™ Transcatheter Aortic Heart Valve in symptomatic severe aortic stenosis patients who are considered of high or extreme risk for surgical aortic valve replacement. Data from the study will be used to support CE Mark of the FlexNav™ Delivery System and Loading System in Europe.

Clinical study on safety and efficacy of ZENFlow™ drug-eluting PTA balloon dilatation catheter in the treatment of iliac, femoral and popliteal artery stenosis or occlusion

The objective of this study is to provide an ongoing evaluation of clinical outcomes associated with the GORE Flow Reversal System and the GORE Embolic Filter when used for embolic protection during carotid artery stenting.

Although balloon dilatation is the primary treatment for benign dysphagia, information about the optimal inflation time is lacking. The aim of the current pilot study was to compare 10 seconds inflation time, with 2 minutes inflation time, regarding the efficacy

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on airway complications in post-lung transplant recipients with evidence of restricted levels of blood and oxygen in the airway tissue. Study subjects with extensive airway tissue damage in the early post-transplant period will be randomized to HBOT or usual care and followed clinically for 12 months following randomization. The investigators hypothesize that HBOT will decrease the number of airway complications in the treated subjects.

The purpose of this study is to document the performance of a new Fully Covered Self Expanding Metal Stents (FCSEMS) for treatment of refractory pancreatic duct strictures in patients with painful chronic pancreatitis.

This study investigates the effective power of angina pectoris after Quick-Acting Heart Reliever and isosorbide dinitrate interventing respectively the patients with moderate coronary stenosis for six months. At the same time, the studying will assess the plaque, myocardial blood-supplying,quality of life and observe the end point of the heart (including the myocardial revascularization, death and myocardial infarction). The purpose is to study the function of the blood-quickening stasis-transforming formula Quick-Acting Heart Reliever for moderate coronary stenosis lesions.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Medtronic CoreValve® System in the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis in subjects who have a predicted very high risk and high risk for aortic valve surgery.
