Trial summary

This is a BlueDop Vascular Expert System (BVE) Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) study. The primary objective of the study is to assess the clinical applicability and diagnostic accuracy of the BVE device in subjects who require an arterial duplex test due to suspected peripheral arterial disease (PAD).

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Nonrandomized, Open-label, Single-arm Study of the BlueDop Vascular Expert for Assessing Peripheral Arterial Disease

This is a BlueDop Vascular Expert System (BVE) Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) study. The primary objective of the study is to assess the clinical applicability and diagnostic accuracy of the BVE device in subjects who require an arterial duplex test due to suspected peripheral arterial disease (PAD).

Read the detailed description

The BVE device is intended to assess mean peripheral pressure, vascular reserve, Cuff free Ankle Brachial Index (ABIm), and assess the presence or absence of hemodynamically significant arterial disease. By converting Doppler shifts to a blood pressure measurement, BVE can be used to monitor PAD in a non-invasive manner without confounding by arterial calcification.

This is a post-market, interventional, prospective, multi-center, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm clinical investigation designed to evaluate the clinical equivalence of BVE to arterial Duplex in a group of patients referred for evaluation of PAD of the limbs when performed by a vascular specialist. Moreover, the evaluation of the clinical performance including inter-operator variability and BVE non-diagnostic rate will be also carried out as exploratory variables.

  1. Primary objective: Evaluate the clinical equivalence (assessment of accuracy) of BVE as binary result (either presence or absence of significant peripheral arterial disease) compared to arterial duplex ultrasound in a group of patients referred for evaluation of PAD of the lower limbs when performed by a vascular specialist.
  2. Secondary objectives: Evaluate the clinical equivalence (assessment of accuracy) of BVE as binary result (either presence or absence of significant peripheral arterial disease) compared to ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) in a group of patients referred for evaluation of PAD of the lower limbs when performed by a vascular specialist. Assess the safety of the BVE device.
  3. Exploratory objectives:

Evaluation of the BVE System for clinical performance including time needed to perform BVE, inter-operator variability and number of BVE non-diagnostic tests.

What is being measured

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

  1. Determination of Presence or Absence of Significant PAD With BVE and Arterial Duplex

    Evaluation of clinical equivalence through a binary result (either presence or absence of significant PAD) in BVE compared to a binary summary of the arterial duplex.

    Significant PAD is established with Duplex ultrasound when peak systolic velocity ratio (PSVR) is greater than 3 for any one level, or, if patients have multi-level disease, PSVR ≥ 2 at more than one level (i.e. sfa, pop)

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Determination of Presence or Absence of Significant PAD With BVE and ABPI

    Evaluation of clinical equivalence through a binary result (either presence or absence of significant PAD) in BVE compared to a binary summary of ABPI.

    Significant PAD is established when ABPI index is <0.8.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Number and Risk-classification of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Evaluation of BVE safety through the assessment of the risk and occurrence rates of AEs and SAEs

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peripheral Arterial Disease, run by BlueDop Medical LTD at 4 sites in Spain.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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 27 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Spain. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Dec 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Determination of Presence or Absence of Significant PAD With BVE and Arterial Duplex (time frame: 1 day). 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 27 Dec 2024.
