Summary: The FRACTURE Trial is a prospective, non-randomized, single-arm, multicenter, interventional study in US and international centers.

Summary: The NODULE-SHOCK trial is a prospective, investigator-initiated, single-center, randomized controlled trial designed to compare the efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) with or without rotational atherectomy (RA) in patients with coronary calcified nodules (Cohort A), and operator-determined vs maximum IVL pulses in patients with non-nodular severe coronary calcium (Cohort B).

Summary: A prospective, single-arm, open-label, multi-center IDE study with up to 55 US sites

Summary: The FORWARD CAD IDE Study is a Prospective, Multicenter, Single-Arm, Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) Study conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Shockwave Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System with the Javelin Coronary IVL Catheter for the treatment of calcified, stenotic de novo coronary artery lesions prior to stenting.

Summary: The primary purpose of this study is to observe reduced access site complications in patients with heavily calcified common femoral arteries requiring Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR)

Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the ELS to treat urinary stones. The ELS is intended to break urinary stones into small fragments that can pass during or after the procedure with less or no discomfort. Eligible patients are male or females, age 21 or older, with a single urinary stone in the ureter. Participants will undergo the ELS procedure and then be eval...

Summary: Goal of this trial: To test a new tool called VISOR in adults (aged 18-80) with 1-3 cm kidney or ureter stones. We want to see: 1. If it's safe and works well 2. If its built-in features (flushing/suction, pressure control, and stone-breaking/removal) help clear stones better while keeping surgery safe. Main questions: 1. Can the VISOR clear stones successfully (with fragments \<4 mm left) for at ...

Summary: The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of intraprocedural Virtual Reality (VR) as a non-pharmacological intervention for mitigating anxiety and pain during Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL). The hypothesis is that VR can effectively reduce both pain and anxiety levels in patients by diverting their cognitive focus, potentially leading to a decrease in pharmacological inte...

Summary: The incidence of kidney stones (urolithiasis) has surged in both developing and developed countries, affecting approximately 15% of the global population. From 2010 to 2019, diagnoses of kidney and ureteral stones rose by 8% in Germany, 26% in France, and 15% in England. Correspondingly, the number of surgical stone removal procedures increased by 3%, 38%, and 18%, respectively. Common treatments ...

Summary: This prospective, randomized controlled study evaluates the hemodynamic effects of prone and supine positions during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) for large kidney stones. Surgical position may influence intraoperative and postoperative hemodynamic stability. Prone positioning can increase intrathoracic pressure and reduce venous return, whereas supine positioning may provide greater hemodyna...

Summary: Typical symptoms of PAD include exercise-induced pain in the legs (known as intermittent claudication), which can significantly limit pain-free walking. In more advanced stages, pain may also occur at rest. Additionally, the development of chronic, hard-to-heal wounds-especially on the feet and toes-is possible. These wound healing impairments are caused by the insufficient supply of oxygen and nu...
