Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 40 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The 3 distinct subjects groups are divided as such: * Critical Limb Ischaemia (CLI) Group with tibial arterial disease: Up to 20, but at least 8 subjects with a Rutherford grade 4 or 5 critically ischemic foot, where the primary intention is to treat at least one occluded tibial vessel or 2 severely stenosed tibial vessels. The treatment of SFA stenoses of less than 70%, as confirmed by duplex or CT, is acceptable in parallel in this group. * Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Group with SFA disease: Up to 20, but at least 8 subjects with a clinical diagnosis of claudication and duplex or CT-confirmed SFA stenoses greater than 70%, with no intention of primarily treating any tibial disease at this encounter. * PAD-free Group (Healthy Volunteer Group): Up to 20 subjects with no clinical diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease.

About this study

The Pedra Technologies' PedraTM device is a non-invasive, diagnostic device intended to measure foot perfusion by assessing blood flow. The PedraTM device comprises a compact instrument console connected to a sensor that is pasted onto the patient's foot during perfusion assessment. Through skin contact, the device is able to monitor tissue perfusion at depths of up to 7.5mm. The monitor console contains opto-electronic instrumentation including coherent infrared light sources, photo detectors, and display/control electronics. The sensor comprises passive fiber-optic conduits, which transfer infrared light from the console to the patient, and relays scattered light from the patient back to the console. The intensity of light emitted from the sensor is less than 3 mW, well within the safety envelope of Class I laser systems and comparable (or lower than) other commercially available devices such as laser Doppler systems. The sole point of contact with the patient is a layer of medical grade adhesive tape, which is used to paste the flat sensor onto intact skin.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pedra Tissue Perfusion MonitorDevice

    This study is a prospective single-centre, device observational study designed to enroll up to 60 evaluable subjects at 1 investigational site in the United Kingdom. Eligible subjects, who meet the requirements for one of the 3 distinct subject groups: (1) Critical Limb Ischaemia group, (2) Peripheral artery disease with superficial femoral arterial (SFA) or popliteal artery disease and (3) PAD-free group. Subjects who meet study eligibility criteria will be enrolled consecutively until the total number of subjects is enrolled per each group as outlined in the protocol. All subjects at the investigational site will be enrolled in the presence of a member of the Sponsor or selected designee in order to assist with the device operation and to verify that all protocol assessments are completed appropriately at baseline.

What is being measured

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

  1. Baseline safety endpoint: The absence of immediately observable skin reaction (rash; local oedema, blistering of the skin) in ≥ 90% of subjects after removal of the Pedra sensors.

    This observation assessment is completed by the physician post removal of the adhesive pads. It is either a "yes" or a "no" in observing if there is a skin reaction to the adhesive pads when they are removed from the skin and also documentation of what type of reaction (rash; local oedema, blistering of the skin).

    Measured: Baseline visit: 30-60 minutes after pad removal

  2. During procedure safety endpoint: The absence of immediately observable skin reaction (rash; local oedema, blistering of the skin) in ≥ 90% of subjects after removal of the Pedra sensors.

    This observation assessment is completed by the physician post removal of the adhesive pads. It is either a "yes" or a "no" in observing if there is a skin reaction to the adhesive pads when they are removed from the skin and also documentation of what type of reaction (rash; local oedema, blistering of the skin).

    Measured: During procedure visit: 30-60 minutes after pad removal

  3. 36-hrs post-procedure/ discharge visit safety endpoint: The absence of immediately observable skin reaction (rash; local oedema, blistering of the skin) in ≥ 90% of subjects after removal of the Pedra sensors.

    This observation assessment is completed by the physician post removal of the adhesive pads. It is either a "yes" or a "no" in observing if there is a skin reaction to the adhesive pads when they are removed from the skin and also documentation of what type of reaction (rash; local oedema, blistering of the skin).

    Measured: 36-hrs post-procedure/ discharge visit: 30-60 minutes after pad removal

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peripheral Arterial Disease and Chronic Limb Ischemia, run by Pedra Technology, PTE LTD at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 0 inclusion and 12 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2020. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Baseline safety endpoint: The absence of immediately observable skin reaction (rash; local oedema, blistering of the skin) in ≥ 90% of subjects after removal of the Pedra sensors. (time frame: Baseline visit: 30-60 minutes after pad removal). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Sep 2020.
