About this study

Official title: Feasibility of 2D Perfusion DSA With Custom-made, Color-coded Software for the Quantification of Foot Perfusion Following Infrapopliteal Angioplasty

A custom-made, 2D-perfusion digital subtraction angiography (PDSA) algorithm has been designed and implemented towards foot perfusion quantification following endovascular treatment of critical limb ischemia (CLI), in order to assist intra-procedural decision-making and enhance clinical outcomes.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single-center, study investigating the feasibility of 2D-PDSA using newly-developed, non-commercially available, color-coded software for the quantification of foot perfusion following infrapopliteal angioplasty for the treatment of CLI. In total, 7 consecutive patients scheduled to undergo infrapopliteal endovascular treatment of CLI were enrolled. Perfusion Blood Volume (PBV), Mean Transit Time (MTT), and Perfusion Blood Flow (PBF) maps were extracted by analyzing Time-Intensity Curves and signal intensity on the perfused vessel mask. Mean values calculated from user-specified ROIs on perfusion maps were employed to evaluate the patient's pre- and post- endovascular treatment condition.

  • 2D perfusion digital subtraction angiography of the foot.Diagnostic test

    Also called Infrapopliteal angioplasty

    2D perfusion digital subtraction angiography of the foot was performed after infrapopliteal angioplasty and Perfusion Blood Volume (PBV), Mean Transit Time (MTT), and Perfusion Blood Flow (PBF) maps were extracted by analyzing Time-Intensity Curves and signal intensity on the perfused vessel mask.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PerfusionExperimentalConsecutive patients scheduled to undergo infrapopliteal angioplasty or stenting, or both, as part of their standard treatment for Rutherford-Becker class 5 and 6 chronic limb-threatening ischemia, were included in the study. All procedures were performed using local anesthesia. An antegrade access was used in all patients followed by the deployment of a 5 or 6 Fr arterial sheaths. A semi-lateral foot projection was preferred and the pre-revascularization DSA of the foot was performed via a 5 Fr angiographic catheter placed at the distal third of the popliteal artery. Following revascularization of one or more tibial arteries, the catheter was placed at the same popliteal segment and post-procedural DSA of the foot was performed following the exact pre-revascularization injection protocol at the same semi-lateral projection. The 2D-perfusion imaging and analysis of the DICOM files was performed after revascularization.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: 2D perfusion digital subtraction angiography of the foot.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Perfusion Blood Volume (PBV)

    PBV calculated on subtraction images and pre- and post-procedural values were compared using the proposed 2D perfusion DSA software.

    Measured: Ten minutes before and five minutes after the intervention

  2. Change in Mean Transit Time (MTT)

    MTT calculated on subtraction images and pre- and post-procedural values were compared using the proposed 2D perfusion DSA software.

    Measured: Ten minutes before and five minutes after the intervention

  3. Change in Perfusion Blood Flow (PBF)

    PBF calculated on subtraction images and pre- and post-procedural values compared using the proposed 2D perfusion DSA software.

    Measured: Ten minutes before and five minutes after the intervention

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Major amputation rate

    The rate of above the knee target limb amputation

    Measured: Six months

  2. Procedure-related complications

    Complications noted during and after the index procedure

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 2D perfusion digital subtraction angiography of the foot. in people with Ischemia Limb, run by Attikon Hospital at 1 site in Greece.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 22 Apr 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 Greece. 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?

Change in Perfusion Blood Volume (PBV) (time frame: Ten minutes before and five minutes after the intervention). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04356092, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 22 Apr 2020.
