Testing a new guide wire for heart and leg artery procedures
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new guide wire used during procedures to open blocked arteries in the heart or legs. It may help doctors treat conditions like chest pain, leg pain when walking, or other artery blockages.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You need to have a planned procedure to open a blocked artery in your heart or leg.
- You must have a strong pulse felt in the wrist artery on at least one arm.
- You must be able to have the procedure done through an artery in your groin as well.
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You cannot have a known allergy to the materials in the guide wire.

This trial is testing a robotic system to help with a procedure that opens blocked heart arteries. If you need a stent and fit the criteria, you may be able to join.
This trial tests if using a special pressure-sensing wire during treatment of blocked leg arteries below the knee can improve outcomes for people with severe circulation problems that threaten the limb. It aims to help patients with Rutherford category 5 chronic limb threatening ischemia.
This trial tests a special balloon that releases medication to help keep leg arteries open. It's for people with narrowed or blocked arteries in the leg, either above or below the knee.
This trial tests whether a computer guidance system can help doctors choose the right pressure/blood-flow measurements during certain heart artery procedures. It may help ensure treatment decisions are based on the clearest information about narrowed arteries.
This trial tests a new wire system to reopen completely blocked leg arteries without surgery. It is for people with severe leg pain or tissue damage caused by blocked arteries, and aims to restore blood flow and improve walking ability.
This trial tests a special wire to monitor heart function during a less invasive valve replacement procedure (TAVI). It aims to improve safety and understanding of the heart's response during the procedure.
