Post Approval Study Investigating Lutonix Drug Coated Balloon for Treatment of Dysfunctional Arteriovenous Fistulae
This prospective, global, multicenter, single arm post-approval study is designed to investigate the clinical use and safety of the Lutonix® 035 AV Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) PTA Catheter in subjects presenting with clinical and hemodynamic abnormalities in native arteriovenous (AV) fistulae located in the upper extremity.
Exercise Program for Arteriovenous Fistula Maturation
Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the recommended vascular access for chronic hemodialysis, as it is associated with less mortality and better patency than arteriovenous graft (AVG) or central venous catheter (CVC). Unfortunately, AVF suffers from a high failure rate, due, in part, to poor venous diameter. The aim of this study …
App-supported Vestibular Rehabilitation (RCT)
A randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of an app-assisted vestibular rehabilitation in increasing adherence to VR and treatment outcomes
Pedicle Screw Malposition in Spine Arthrodesis Surgeries With O-ARM-guided Navigation
Background: Throughout the history of spinal deformity there have been continuous advances in the surgical treatment. Although many techniques have been successfully developed despite the anatomy complex, screw placement still remains difficult with a significant risk of misplaced implants. The O-ARM guided Navigation is a scanner that allows imaging of …
A Multicenter Retrospective Analysis of Postoperative Respiratory Complications in Children With Obstructive Sleepapnea
This retrospective observational study aims to evaluate postoperative respiratory complications (PORC) after (adeno)tonsillectomy in children with OSA. In order to increase the number of patients available for analysis, we will merge data collected at UZA with data collected at the the Department of Sleep Laboratory and Sleep Surgery at the …
Randomised Clinical Trial Comparing Drug-coated Balloon to Plain Balloon for All Peripheral AVF Stenosis
To compare the access circuit primary patency after Ranger drug-coated balloon angioplasty of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) stenosis with that after conventional balloon angioplasty
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on Spastic Equinus Foot in Stroke Patients
The goal of this study is to evaluate long term effects of focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (fESWT) on triceps surae spasticity in stroke patients according to the number of sessions applied. Hypothesis: 3 sessions of fESWT on equinus foot in stroke patients improve spasticity and functionality for longer term …
Stellate Ganglion Block for Preserving Arteriovenous Fistula in Hemodialysis Patients Undergoing Major Lower Limb Orthopedic Surgery
The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of stellate ganglion blockade (SGB) for preserving arteriovenous fistula in hemodialysis patients undergoing major lower limb orthopedic surgery.
Efficacy of ARISTA-AH for Restoring Hemostasis Following Posterior Long-segment Spinal Fusion.
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of the ARISTA AH for restoring hemostasis following a long segment posterior spinal fusion.
Craniomaxillofacial and Upper Extremity Allotransplantation
The purpose of this study is to evaluate functional and aesthetic outcomes of combined facial and upper extremity composite tissue allografts on patients who have not achieved functional and aesthetic outcomes with conventional reconstructive surgical strategies and prosthetic devices.
