Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This prospective, single arm, post market clinical study was designed to proactively collect clinical data on the LeMaitre® TufTex Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheters and to confirm its performance in removing arterial emboli and/or thrombi, to identify and analyze emergent risks on the basis of factual evidence, and to ensure the continued acceptability of the benefit/risk ratio. This post market study is sponsored by LeMaitre® Vascular, Inc., the manufacturer of the device. Study will take place at 3 to 8 sites in Europe, the target sample size is 112 patients.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Male and female subject, ≥ 18 years of age at time of enrollment.
  2. Subject who is scheduled to undergo surgical treatment for the removal of arterial or venous emboli and/or thrombi, where one of the LeMaitre® Embolectomy Catheter will be used.
  3. Subject signed an Informed Consent for participation.
  4. Subject diagnosed with a embolus/thrombus.
  5. Subjects for whom thrombolytic therapy had failed or was contraindicated.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Co-morbidity that in the discretion of the investigator might confound the results.
  2. Subjects who are unable to read or write.
  3. Pregnant or lactating women at time of enrollment
  4. Subjects who are immune comprised

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Other: LeMaitre TufTex Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheter
The LeMaitre® Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheter is a catheter that consists of a natural latex rubber balloon secured with ligatures to a single lumen radiopaque shaft. When the balloon the emboli and/or thrombi can be removed by withdrawing the catheter tip through the arteriotomy.
Device: TufTex Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheter
The SLC Embolectomy Catheter is indicated for the removal of arterial emboli and thrombi

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety objective is defined as acceptable safety outcomes (e.g. (Serious) Device and/or Procedure Related Events) during the procedure
Time Frame: During procedure and 1 month post index procedure
The primary safety objective is defined as acceptable safety outcomes (e.g. (Serious) Device and/or Procedure Related Events) during the procedure and 1 Month post index procedure.
During procedure and 1 month post index procedure
Performance objective is the technical success as defined as <30% residual stenosis
Time Frame: 1 month post index procedure
The primary performance objective is the technical success as defined as <30% residual stenosis of the target vessel.
1 month post index procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
1. Clinical success
Time Frame: 1 Month after the index procedure
Clinical success is target vessel dependent and defined as; (1) The absence of target vessel limb amputation post-intervention in case of limb cloths, and 2. successful dialysis sessions performed post-intervention in case of dialysis shunt revascularization (2) Revision rate is defined as the number of patients with target vessel reintervention (3) Primary assisted patency is defined as target vessel patency; the target vessel is patent but there may have been some intervention required to maintain that patency. (4) Secondary patency is defined as the target vessel patency including target vessel that have been occluded and there has been an intervention to restore patency.
1 Month after the index procedure
2. Revision Rate
Time Frame: 1 month post index procedure
Revision rate is defined as the number of patients with target vessel reintervention
1 month post index procedure
3. Primary Assisted Patency
Time Frame: 1 month post index procedure
Primary assisted patency is defined as target vessel patency; the target vessel is patent but there may have been some intervention required to maintain that patency.
1 month post index procedure
4. Secondary Patency
Time Frame: 1 month post index procedure
Secondary patency is defined as the target vessel patency including target vessel that have been occluded and there has been an intervention to restore patency.

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Exploratory endpoints
