This study looks at how certain cells in your blood that help repair blood vessels may change in people with and without peripheral artery disease (PAD). It involves a single blood draw and questionnaires to help understand the connection between PAD and blood vessel health. Participating might give you more information about your condition and contribute to future treatments.

Blood thinners after leg artery surgery to prevent clots
This trial compares two blood-thinning strategies after leg artery surgery or angioplasty to prevent dangerous blood clots. Participants will receive either rivaroxaban plus aspirin or aspirin alone, and researchers will monitor for clots over 30 days.
Pernambuco, PernambucoAges Any age - NCT06979284Recruiting
Ultrasound inside artery for severe leg blockages
This trial tests whether using a special ultrasound probe inside the artery (called intravascular ultrasound) helps guide treatment for people with severe leg artery blockages that cause pain, wounds, or gangrene. The goal is to see if it improves blood flow and saves the leg.
HamiltonAges 18 years+ - NCT07012369Recruiting
Messages on sanitary pad packaging for new moms
This study tests whether adding written or visual messages to sanitary napkin packages helps new mothers learn about birth control options after having a baby. It's for women who want to avoid pregnancy naturally and have a baby between 9 and 18 months old.
SamsunAges 18–49 - NCT07016698Recruiting
Real-world registry study of the Rotarex device for clearing leg blockages
This study collects information on people who are treated with a device called Rotarex that uses a spinning tool to remove plaque from blocked leg arteries. It aims to understand how well the device works in real-world use to help patients with reduced blood flow to their legs.
Lakeland, FloridaAges 22 years+ - NCT07097857Recruiting
Foot blood flow check before and after leg artery procedure
This study uses a special camera to take pictures of blood flow in your foot before and after a procedure to open a blocked artery in your leg. The goal is to see how well the procedure works for people with diabetes.
Singapore, SGAges 21–99 - NCT07157475Recruiting
Blood vessel complications after leg artery procedures with SGLT2 inhibitors
This study looks at how a type of medicine called SGLT2 inhibitors (used for diabetes, kidney disease, or heart issues) affects blood vessel complications in people who have had a leg procedure to improve blood flow. It compares patients taking the medicine to those who are not.
