Leg Exercise Paddle Therapy for Peripheral Artery Disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a leg exercise device (like a paddle) to help people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) walk farther with less pain. It compares the device to standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 85 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with peripheral artery disease (PAD) and have leg pain when walking (claudication).
- You do not have pain in your legs when resting, and you have no open sores or dead tissue on your feet.
- You do not have kidney disease or type 2 diabetes.
- You have had a physical exam in the last year to check your exercise limits.

This study tests if monitoring oxygen levels during supervised walking therapy helps people with leg pain from narrowed arteries. It may improve how far you can walk without pain.
This study tests whether doing simple leg exercises at home with a small, portable pedal machine can help improve walking and blood flow in people with moderate-to-severe PAD. It's for people who cannot or prefer not to join a hospital-based exercise program.
This trial tests a new kind of exercise that is meant to be non-ischemic (not reduce blood flow) and pain-free, to see if it helps people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who get leg pain when walking. You may be eligible if you have PAD confirmed by specific treadmill and blood-pressure measurements and meet the exercise and health safety requirements.
This trial tests a personalized exercise program for people with peripheral arterial disease (PAD), a condition that causes leg pain when walking. The goal is to see if a tailored exercise plan can help reduce pain, improve walking distance, and boost quality of life.
This trial tests a supervised exercise program for people with leg pain when walking caused by narrowed leg arteries. The goal is to see if exercise can improve walking ability and quality of life.
This study tests whether a simple daily calf-stretching routine can improve walking ability and blood flow in people with peripheral artery disease. It offers a non-drug, non-surgical approach that you can do at home.
