This trial tests whether a drug-coated balloon works better than a plain balloon to open up narrowed spots in your dialysis access. If you have a failing AVF with a narrowing that can be treated, this study may help improve your dialysis.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT02061787Recruiting
Exercise testing to assess outcomes in pulmonary hypertension
This trial studies how well a treadmill/breathing exercise test can measure health outcomes in people with certain types of pulmonary hypertension. It may help your care team judge your status and track changes over time.
BeijingAges 5–100 - NCT07613632Recruiting
Lung Blood Flow Changes After Vein Graft Repair
This study measures how blood flow and oxygen distribution in your lungs change after a procedure to unclog a dialysis access graft. Researchers use painless electrode patches on your chest to track these changes and better understand how the procedure affects your breathing.
WuhuAges 18 years+ - NCT06713850Recruiting
Balloon treatment for leg artery blockages with calcium
This trial uses a special balloon (Shockwave IVL) to break up calcium in leg artery blockages, improving blood flow and reducing pain. It's for people with moderate to severe calcium buildup in the femoropopliteal artery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07582835RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term heart clot prevention after stent placement
This study tests whether taking a single blood-thinning medication (instead of two) after heart stent placement is safe and effective over the long term. If you've recovered well from a stent procedure, this trial may help determine the safest way to prevent future heart problems.
Lugano, Ch/tiAges 18 years+ - NCT06734221Recruiting
Testing a paclitaxel-coated balloon for leg artery disease
This trial tests a special balloon coated with a drug (paclitaxel) to open blocked leg arteries, aiming to improve blood flow and reduce symptoms like leg pain when walking. It is for people with moderate to severe leg artery disease who have not had prior stents or bypass in the treated area.
Chrzanów, MalopolskaAges 18 years+ - NCT07531966Recruiting
Blood Vessel Problems After Kidney Transplant Treatment
This study looks at treating narrowing or blockage of blood vessels in transplanted kidneys. If your transplanted kidney is showing signs of not working well and imaging shows a blocked vessel, this trial tests whether a procedure called angioplasty (opening the vessel with a tiny balloon) can help restore blood flow and improve kidney function.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05544864Recruiting
Stent or balloon treatment guided by heart scar pattern
This study looks at how to treat blocked heart arteries that have narrowed again after a prior drug-eluting stent. It compares using another drug-eluting stent versus a drug-coated balloon, chosen based on an imaging scan inside the artery (OCT), to reduce repeat narrowing.
Frankfurt am Main, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT07463664Recruiting
Drug-coated balloons for blocked heart arteries
This trial tests whether a drug-coated balloon, used without a permanent stent, can safely open completely blocked heart arteries that have been blocked for at least 3 months. It may offer an option that avoids leaving a metal stent behind.
