Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to examine patient reported outcomes including pain, quality of life, depression and impact on kidney blood flow before and after procedure to destroy the pain sensory nerves of the kidneys in patients with untreatable one or two sided kidney pain.

This study will compare the effectiveness of best available surgical treatment with best available endovascular treatment in adults with critical limb ischemia (CLI) who are eligible for both treatment options.

The purpose of this study is to retrospectively review experiences with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) of blunt traumatic thoracic aortic injury (BTAI) and to define the long-term outcomes from endovascular management at a single vascular center.

This is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized clinical evaluation utilizing the PulseRider® Aneurysm Neck Reconstruction Device.

The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that anticoagulation with bivalirudin results in fewer major bleeding complications compared with unfractionated heparin (UFH) in subjects undergoing peripheral endovascular interventions (PEI). The secondary objective is to identify potential benefits from bivalirudin therapy on other clinically important events such as death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and/or transient ischemic attack (TIA), amputation, unplanned repeat revascularization (URV), and minor bleeding, as well as potential economic benefits that may result from improved clinical outcomes.

Indication for use: "The Svelte DES is indicated for improving coronary luminal diameter in patients with symptomatic heart disease, including patients with non-ST elevation MI due to discrete de novo native coronary artery lesions. The treated lesion length should be less than the nominal stent length with a reference vessel diameter of 2.50 mm - 4.00 mm

The purpose of this study is to evaluate Endologix AFX endovascular abdominal aortic aneurism system with anatomical fixation against other approved endovascular systems with proximal fixation.

The purpose of this study is to determine if patients receiving Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) prior to elective endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms will have a reduction in rates of cerebral ischemia as detected onimaging when compared to a group of historical controls.  Our secondary aim is to determine if patients who receive ischemic preconditioning have any elevation in serum markers for cerebral ischemia.

The purposes of this study are to determine temporal changes in patient reported outcomes and quality of life (QOL) associated with EVAR, factors associated with requirement for reintervention after EVAR, and the effect of reinterventions on patient reported outcomes and QOL associated.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the image quality and radiation dose of a CT angiography protocol (CTA) using tube potential selection and weight-based method.

The study is being done to compare radiation exposure between two standard-of-care methods of abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.

The purpose of this study is to obtain baseline stress and strain of abdominal aortic artery prior to endovascular repair, and to compare the variation in stress and strain of Ovation vs. Cook stent grafts immediately post-operativelythen after 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months following endovascular repair.
