48 Clinical Trials for Stent
Randomized, pilot study that evaluates surveillance bronchoscopy versus no surveillance for patients that undergo tracheobronchial stenting
Lumen apposing metal stents are now being used to help patients who suffer from cholecystitis (infection of the gallbladder), especially in cases where patients are not candidates for surgery. Lumen apposing metal stents are effective for draining the gallbladder, however, placement is technically challenging. Scientists have developed an artificial intelligence to aid doctors in the deployment of these stents into the gallbladder. The aim of this study is test the performance of an artificial intelligence in providing physicians accurate information for gallbladder drainage.
Glaucoma is the second most common cause of blindness in the world, second only to cataracts. This study will assess how safe and effective a glaucoma gel stent is when implanted using the ab interno (inside the eye) and ab externo (outside the eye) approach. Adverse events and intraocular pressure will be assessed. XEN63 is an investigational device for the treatment of intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with glaucoma when both medical and conventional surgical treatments have failed (for US approval) and when medical treatments have failed (for outside US \[OUS\] approval). Participants will be placed in one of two groups called study arms. One group will receive the XEN63 gel stent ab interno (inside the eye) and the other group will receive the XEN63 gel stent ab externo (outside the eye). Approximately 130 participants aged 45 years or older with glaucoma will be enrolled in this study at approximately 32 sites in select countries in North America and Europe. Participants will receive XEN63 implanted using either the ab interno approach or the ab externo approach on Day 1 and will be followed for 12 months. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The safety and effect of the gel stent on your glaucoma will be checked by medical assessments and eye examinations.
The objective of this study is to evaluate acute device and technical success of the CGuard Prime™ Carotid Stent System (80cm) when used in conjunction with the Enroute NPS during Transcarotid Artery Revascularization procedures in the treatment of carotid artery stenosis in spatients at high risk for adverse events from carotid endarterectomy.

Early Feasibility Study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Innoventric Trillium™ Stent Graft in the treatment of severe or greater tricuspid regurgitation (TR).
Objective: To improve quality-of-life and health care delivery to patients receiving ureteral stents. Specific Aims: Evaluate the feasibility, practicality, and qualitative outcomes of utilizing intra-nasal ketorolac in patients with indwelling ureteral stents (Phase I), followed by a randomized trial comparing two non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, intra-nasal Ketorolac versus oral Diclofenac. Hypotheses: Due to its favorable pharmacokinetics in relieving acute pain, investigators expect improved pain scores and a lower rate of unplanned clinical encounters in patients receiving intra-nasal ketorolac compared to those taking oral diclofenac following ureteroscopic surgery for urolithiasis. Study Rationale: Following ureteroscopic management of urolithiasis, patient with indwelling ureter stents have higher levels of discomfort compared to those without a ureter stent. Prior studies showed that intramuscular Ketorolac at time of ureter stent removal decreased the incidence of unplanned clinical encounters. Furthermore, onset of analgesic effect by intra-nasal ketorolac is faster than its oral form, and similar its intramuscular and intravenous counterparts.
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial designed to assess the differences in postoperative symptoms related to placement of a 6Fr Percuflex ureteral stents, 6Fr Tria ureteral stents, 4.8Fr Percuflex ureteral stents, and 4.8Fr Tria ureteral stents after ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy for treatment of upper tract urinary stones. 272 participants will be enrolled and will be on study for up to approximately 10 weeks.
A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Two-Arm, Single-blind Superiority Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the MagicTouch™ Sirolimus- Coated Balloon in the Treatment of Coronary Drug-Eluting Stent In-Stent Restenosis. Subjects with prior DES implantation presenting with ISR lesions undergoing PCI will be randomized into two groups: treatment with the MagicTouch™ sirolimus-coated balloon or POBA on a 2:1 basis. Approximately 492 subjects will be enrolled in the randomized study in a maximum of 50 study sites located in the United States. The goal is to establish the safety and efficacy of the MagicTouch™ sirolimus- coated balloon in treatment of coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR).
This is a multicenter prospective trial with randomized and observational cohorts assessing patient-reported outcomes and unplanned healthcare utilization following ureteroscopic treatment of renal and ureteral stones, with placement versus omission of a ureteral stent. Eligible participants in the randomization trial will be randomized to ureteroscopy with stent placement or stent omission. Eligible participants that consent to the observational only cohort will complete surveys and the treating physicians will decide the treatment options for the participants. The study team hypothesizes that: * Pain interference change from pre-surgery to Day 7-10 will differ between the two treatment arms. This hypothesis will be evaluated separately in the randomized and observational cohorts. * Unplanned healthcare utilization in the treatment arms will have different unplanned healthcare utilization ranks leading to a win proportion significantly higher or lower than 0.5 in the stent omission arm compared to the stent placement arm. This hypothesis will be evaluated separately in the randomized and observational cohorts.

The objective of the DISTALS Study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tigertriever 13 Revascularization Device in restoring blood flow in the neurovasculature by removing thrombus in patients presenting within 24 hours of onset with an ischemic stroke with disabling neurological deficits due to a primary distal vessel occlusion (DVO), as compared to medical management.
Placement of a ureteral stent is a common urological intervention. For decades there was no valid measures available to assess quality of life issues in patients with ureteral stents, which has hampered the understanding of such symptoms and their true impact. In order to improve the outcomes associated with the placement of a stent, a validated tool is needed to measure its impact and the amount of undesirable effects it produces on patients requiring the placement of a stent. In 2003, the team of the Bristol Urological Institute developed a validated questionnaire called the: URETERAL STENT SYMPTOM QUESTIONNAIRE (USSQ). The questionnaire contains 38 items included in 6 sections. Despite the obvious need of a validated questionnaire, the latter remains unused by the community of peer urologists. Many of urologists consider it too long to be used in clinical practice and even for research purposes. This issue motivated the Canadian Endourology Group (CEG) to work collaboratively on the development of the CANADIAN ENDOUROLOGY GROUP STENT SYMPTOM SCORE (CEGSSS) in order to provide clinicians with a more useful and validated tool. To fulfill this objective, the CEG proceeds in three phases. Phase 1. A systematic, deliberative, and participatory approach mostly through face to face meetings, including patients, clinicians, and researchers in the field of Endourology to identify a minimum needs-based set of domains and items that are, clinically relevant to be included in the CEGSSS in order to ensure optimal uptake in the clinical setting. Phase 2. A pilot study to assess feasibility/acceptability and further refine the proposed set of items selected in phase 1 of the study. Phase 3. A multicentric prospective study to evaluate the validity, reliability and sensitivity to change of the CEGSSS. This research project is conducted by the Canadian Endourology Group (CEG), a panel of experts in the field of endourology in Canada. The CEG is a national member-based organization dedicated to enabling the profession to provide the highest possible standards of endourological care and to advance the science of endourology by collaboratively: 1. Fostering excellence in endourological practice through advocacy, education, research and practice support tools, 2. Leading evidence-based clinical practice through the development of practice standards and guidelines in endourology, 3. Providing continuous professional development for Canadian endourologists along the career-path continuum, 4. Providing leadership in public education for endourological conditions.
This clinical trial studies the effect of customized 3 dimensional (3D) printed oral tents on patients with head and neck cancer who are receiving radiotherapy. Oral stents are made from the impression of patients' mouth and cover patients' teeth and gums during radiation therapy. A customized, 3D-printed oral stent may help to reduce mouth blisters and/or sores that may develop in patients while receiving head and neck radiation therapy.

A prospective, multi-center, non-randomized trial to demonstrate safety and device performance of the ADVA-Tec Uriprene® Degradable Temporary Ureteral Stent.
This is a prospective sham study to investigate the role of transpyloric stenting with lumen apposing metal stent (LAMS) as a predictor for clinical response to gastric per-oral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (GPOEM) for refractory gastroparesis. The study hypothesizes that clinical improvement with transpyloric stenting in patients with refractory gastroparesis is a predictor of subsequent clinical success of GPOEM.
This is a pilot study to (1) evaluate the effect of Ketorolac on inflammatory response and its impact on stent related symptoms in patients undergoing stent placement procedure and (2) assess feasibility of recruitment, randomization, assessment procedures and implementation of the study intervention.
Salivary duct stent placement is a common practice to maintain duct patency after salivary duct repair or interventional sialoendoscopy; procedures performed to manage salivary duct pathology such as stenosis, traumatic injury or most commonly salivary duct stones. It is common practice for patients to receive perioperative antibiotics while undergoing interventional sialoendoscopy and postoperative oral antibiotic therapy with Clindamycin or Augmentin for 10-14 days, if a short term (2 week) salivary duct stenting was considered necessary due to the nature of the intervention. However, In reviewing the literature, there are controversial trials that indicate post-operative antibiotics may not be best practice in all surgical scenarios, as the adverse events ie. gastrointestinal disturbances, nausea, Clostridium difficile (C.diff) infection and antibiotic resistance over time surrounding overuse of antibiotics may outweigh the clinical need for the antibiotic regiment and the chances of post-operative infection.
The Sinai Vein Stent Registry aims to establish and maintain a registry of patients who have undergone a vein stent placement procedure at The Mount Sinai Medical Center. The purpose of this study is to monitor and evaluate the long-term outcomes of venous stents placed to treat venous outflow obstruction. Outcome variables that will be assessed are: patency rate, reintervention rate, occurrence of any complications, clinical improvement, and quality of life. Venous outflow obstruction is defined as a stenosis and/or occlusion seen primarily in the ilio-femoral vein and inferior vena cava, and infrequently in the subclavian vein, brachiocephalic vein, or superior vena cava. While vein stent placement procedures are currently being performed in the United States, using stents which are commercially available and FDA-approved for use in arterial interventions, at this time there are no stents that are FDA-approved for use in veins. The placement of stents in veins holds tremendous promise as a treatment for venous outflow obstruction, but review of current literature has showed a paucity of published data on the long-term outcomes of this treatment. The study is composed of two arms, a retrospective arm and a prospective arm. Any patient over the age of 18 who has undergone or is scheduled to undergo a vein stent placement procedure is eligible for this study. A HIPAA waiver and waiver of informed consent are being requested for the retrospective arm for patients who have undergone a vein stent placement procedure from January 1st 2012 to date of study onset, as it is not possible to contact all patients in the retrospective arm (i.e., lost to follow-up, no longer follows-up with a study physician). This study is only interested in the collection and analysis of data; the clinical care and outcomes of research subjects will not be affected by their participation in this study. An IDE application has been submitted to the FDA for use of the Wallstent™ (manufactured by Boston Scientific, Inc.) in veins as treatment for venous outflow obstruction. The primary stents being used as treatment for venous outflow obstruction at Mount Sinai is the Wallstent™, mainly due to the fact that only Wallstents™ are available in the appropriate sizes to be used in veins. In rare occasions or exceptional circumstances, a smaller self-expanding nitinol stent may be used. Due to the extremely rare frequency of stents other than Wallstents™ being used and the impracticality (if not impossibility) of obtaining IDEs for all other stents, the investigators believe it is appropriate to exclude usage of these stents from the study data. To confirm, the purpose of this study is to monitor and evaluate long-term outcomes of the venous stents/the vein stent placement procedure, not specifically the Wallstent™ itself.
Prospective, nonrandomized, single-center, two-arm study to assess the feasibility and safety and to evaluate clinical outcomes of endovascular repair of complex aortic aneurysms (thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms and aortic arch aneurysms) in patients at high risk for open surgery.
