Peripheral bypass quality check study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new way to check the quality of leg bypass surgery while you're still in the operating room, using a special device. It may help ensure the bypass is working well right away, which could reduce the risk of future problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have severe leg artery disease (chronic limb-threatening ischemia) causing pain at rest, non-healing sores, or gangrene.
- The blockages are in the arteries below the knee (infra-popliteal) and are caused by atherosclerosis (plaque buildup).
- You have a healthy vein (like the saphenous vein) that can be used for the bypass graft, based on a vein mapping test.
- There is a suitable artery in the lower leg (between knee and ankle) to connect the bypass to.
- You are willing to follow the study plan, attend follow-up visits, and give written consent.

This study tests a new type of artificial blood vessel for people with severely blocked leg arteries who need bypass surgery. It aims to see if this device is safe and works well for restoring blood flow to the leg.
This study compares two types of bypass surgery for blocked leg arteries. One uses a standard vein from your own body, and the other uses a vein supported by a special metal frame. The goal is to see which works better and lasts longer.
This trial checks if a new way of measuring blood flow during heart bypass surgery helps improve outcomes. It's for people having planned (not emergency) bypass surgery for certain types of chest pain or heart attack.
This study looks at how blood flow readings during coronary artery bypass surgery relate to whether the new grafts stay open and how well patients recover. It aims to help improve long-term results for people needing bypass surgery.
This study looks at people with blocked leg arteries who are having planned (elective) open surgery for symptoms like leg pain when walking or at rest. It aims to better understand what to expect in these patients and how to compare outcomes between groups.
This study tests a new way to connect a bypass graft during heart bypass surgery for people with blocked heart arteries. The goal is to see if the new graft can be safely placed and works well enough to improve outcomes compared with the standard approach.
