Stent Placement Clinical Trials

Summary: The purpose of this prospective, multicenter, single-group target-value study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the carotid artery stent system in patients with high-risk features for carotid endarterectomy. This trial is utilizing the carotid artery stent system provided by Shanghai HeartCare Medical Technology Co., Ltd. and will be conducted at approximately 10 interventional neurology c...

Summary: Coronary artery disease is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a pivotal procedure for the treatment of coronary artery disease. Although coronary angiography (CA) is the standard imaging modality used for coronary stent implantation, it provides only two-dimensional images of the coronary arteries. Intravascular ultrasound (IV...

Summary: Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has emerged as a promising non-invasive strategy to protect the brain, with evidence suggesting its benefit in patients with carotid artery stenting (CAS). However, the long-term benefit and safety of chronic RIC in this population remain unknown. This trial aims to evaluate whether chronic RIC reduces the incidence of major vascular events and improves clinical ...

Summary: In this multicenter, randomized trial, patients with cholelithiasis with concomitant choledocholithiasis based on inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to receive rectal indomethacin alone or the combination of indomethacin plus a prophylactic pancreatic stent after endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy.Clinical data and patient-reported outcomes...

Summary: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) prevents stroke but carries risks of perioperative cerebral embolism. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound can detect microemboli during CAS and may offer therapeutic benefits through ultrasound-enhanced thrombolysis. Trials like SONOBUSTER and SONOBIRDIE suggest TCD reduces new brain infarctions during carotid procedures. The TCD-ICAS trial will investigate whether ...

Summary: The objective of Heartflow's NAVIGATE-PCI Registry is to collect observational data about the management of patients before and after deployment of Heartflow's PCI Navigator.

Summary: True coronary bifurcation lesions are still great of interest due to their complex anatomy, uncertainty of optimal stenting strategy and increased adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Provisional stenting is recommended in patients with non-complex coronary lesions while 2-stent strategies should be considered in complex coronary bifurcation lesions. However, optimal 2-stent strategy is still controve...

Summary: Rationale: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is a severe complication of colon surgery, with an incidence of 2.7-11.9%. It is associated with long-term increased mortality, reduced quality of life, and high healthcare costs due to reoperations and prolonged hospitalization. Among colon cancer patients, 5-year survival rates are 70% for those with AL compared to 81% for those without. A retrospective case-c...

Summary: This study is aimed at patients suffering from long term intracranial hypertension (caracterized by visual loss, chronic headache and/or tinnitus), receiving acetazolamide for more than 1 year, having inadequate response to treatment (untolerable side effects or insufficient efficacy). The goal is to evaluate if stenting of a specific vein in the brain could decrease the hypertension and improve a...

Summary: Goal is to analyse the clinical safety and efficacy of the CARESTO® heal Stent within standard clinical routine for the treatment of patients with symptomatic non-stenotic carotid disease (SyNC) and with high-risk plaque features for stroke recurrence compared to medical treatment alone with respect to the mid- and long-term clinical outcomes.

Summary: MILESTONE STUDY is dedicated to problems connected with patients with multivessel coronary artery disease and/or with left main narrowing who present symptoms of acute ischemia. For such kind of patients according to current ACC/AHA guidelines CABG (surgical revascularization) is recommended as a treatment method. In comparison with CABG, recent studies have shown that PCI (percutaneous coronary i...

Summary: Comparison of routine postoperative stenting versus no stenting after ureterorenoscopy for ureteral stones to assess the necessity and impact on complication risk.
