About this study

Official title: Safety and Primary Efficacy of the External Synchronized Vein Valve (ESVV) in Treatment of Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) Sequel - A Pilot Study

The External Synchronized Vein Valve (ESVV), is intended for the treatment of Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI), incorporates an external apparatus that is aimed to replace the one-way venous valve and a sensor that identifies the movement of the calf muscles pump. The external device is located above the failed deep vein and exerts synchronized intermittent regulated pressure on it. Alteration in the vein structure is occurred and the blood flows in the cephalad direction, preventing the return toward the feet. The device is synchronized with the calf muscles pump to function as a one-way venous valve. This study was design in order to assess safety and efficacy of using the ESVV for treatment of consequences of deep chronic venous insufficiency.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The safety of using the ESVV for CVI treatment

    Adverse events will be documented

    Measured: 6 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Assessing the efficacy of using the ESVV for treatment of consequences of CVI.

    The efficacy of using the ESVV for the treatment of deep CVI will be established by an increase of at least 100% in PPG recovery time (RT)

    Measured: 6 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ESVV device in people with Venous Insufficiency, run by GB-Veintech at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Hanna Levy, Dr. (+972-4-638-8837, hanna@qsitemed.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The safety of using the ESVV for CVI treatment (time frame: 6 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 May 2011.
