Study of severe leg blood-flow problems after a procedure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows adults with very poor blood flow to the foot or leg (with wounds or severe pain) who are having a revascularization procedure to improve circulation. It may help doctors understand outcomes after treatment and improve care for people with critical limb ischemia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 or older
- You have severe poor blood flow in a lower limb, causing an open wound/ulcer or gangrene or severe resting pain for more than 2 weeks
- Your blood-flow measurements are very low (toe pressure under 30, and/or ankle pressure under 50)
- You are admitted to the vascular medicine hospital unit
- Your care team has discussed and agreed you will undergo an endovascular revascularization procedure

This study measures how blood flows through your foot using ultrasound to see if it can predict serious problems with your leg or heart in people with severe circulation problems. The goal is to find a simple test that helps doctors decide the best treatment for you.
This trial tests a new minimally invasive procedure (placing a small stent) to improve blood flow to a severely threatened foot or lower leg. It may help people whose ulcers or gangrene are not treatable with standard bypass or other surgeries.
This study looks at how best to manage severe leg ischaemia, a condition where blood flow to the leg is dangerously reduced. It mainly involves patients who are planning an intervention, and some participants may also do special heart imaging tests.
This study tests whether stem cells taken from donated fat tissue are safe to inject into people with severe leg circulation problems (critical limb ischemia). It aims to see if the treatment is well tolerated and may help improve blood flow and reduce pain.
This study tests a new way to restore blood flow to the leg in people who have wounds or dead tissue on their foot and have run out of other treatment options. It's for those who have already tried angioplasty twice without success or have severely hardened small arteries.
This study tests a new way to restore blood flow in the lower leg for people with chronic limb-threatening ischemia, a serious condition where leg wounds won't heal due to poor circulation. If it works, this treatment could help save the leg and avoid amputation.
