Safety and Efficacy of Chocolate Balloon Catheter in Peripheral Arterial Disease (CHOCO-PAD)

Sponsor: First People's Hospital of Hangzhou

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This study aims to learn about the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Chocolate Balloon Catheter in patients with blocked leg arteries (peripheral artery disease, or PAD). The Chocolate Balloon is a special type of balloon used during minimally invasive procedures to open narrowed arteries while potentially causing less damage to the blood vessel. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the Chocolate Balloon keep the treated artery open after 12 months without needing repeat procedures? Patients with PAD who are already scheduled to undergo an artery-opening procedure (angioplasty) with the Chocolate Balloon as part of their standard care will answer the question about the safety and effectiveness of the Chocolate Balloon Catheter
