  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: This retrospective and prospective single-center study to compare the accuracy and screening capabilities of BVE and ABI with that of conventional Full Leg Arterial Duplex (FLAD) was performed at a private clinic in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, USA, with data collected from March 2023 to March 2024.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients 18 years or older who presented to the center were consented to have BVE, ABI, and FLAD performed.

Who cannot join

  • Patients were excluded who had incomplete or inadequate data, if they were known to be currently pregnant, or if they had contraindications to Doppler ultrasound.

About this study

Official title: Comparing BlueDop Vascular Expert to Ankle-Brachial Index in the Identification of Peripheral Vascular Disease in All-comers and Diabetic Patients

To compare the screening capabilities of the BlueDop Vascular Expert (BVE) and ankle brachial index (ABI) in peripheral arterial disease for all-comer patients and those with diagnosed diabetes mellitus.

Read the detailed description

This retrospective and prospective single-center study to compare the accuracy and screening capabilities of BVE and ABI with that of conventional Full Leg Arterial Duplex (FLAD) was performed at a private clinic in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, USA, with data collected from March 2023 to March 2024. Currently, BVE carries the European CE Mark but does not yet have FDA approval for use in the United States. This study was undertaken with local IRB approval.

Patients 18 years or older who presented to the center were consented to have BVE, ABI, and FLAD performed. BVE examination of lower extremity arteries were performed following the instruction for use (IFU). All examinations were performed by the same two registered vascular technologists. FLAD ultrasound was carried out with waveform interpretation interpreted by an outside cardiothoracic surgeon who specializes in treatment of arterial disease to determine the presence or absence of disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peripheral Arterial Disease and Diabetes Mellitus, run by Dakota Vascular at 1 site in United States.

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 1 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 3 Jun 2024. 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 States. 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?

Sensitivity (time frame: data collected from March 2023 to March 2024). The study lists 4 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 3 Jun 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
