Vascular Surgery

Clinical trials

Deep vein valve creation – to assess the feasibility of the BlueLeaf Endovenous Valve Formation System to create autogenous  valves in patients with deep venous insufficiency. For more information please visit the InterVene website.

Stem cell injection for CLTI – to investigate the effect of stem cell injection into patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia. Please visit the Hemostemix website for more details.

Bench-top research

Smart stents – to develop a novel implantable stent capable of detecting restenosis through transcutaneous radio waves. Please visit the Scientia article for more details. 

Hydrophilic polymer embolization – to qualify and quantify the shedding of hydrophilic polymer coating on endovascular devices and its potential physiological and clinical effects.
