Keywords
Surgery
Summary

This is a prospective single-arm post-market multicenter study to evaluate
clinical outcomes of Cohealyx when used to manage full thickness wounds
post-surgical excision. Patients with a full thickness wound where autografting is clinically indicated will be considered for participation in this study. Patients will
undergo a staged surgical procedure for wound closure. In the first surgery, Cohealyx will be applied to the surgically excised wound bed within 5-days post-injury. Once Cohealyx has successfully integrated into the wound bed, the wound will be prepped and autografted per standard of care.

List of Studies

Keywords
Nerve, Surgery
Summary

The study is a 48-week clinical study to compare study medication NTX-001 used intraoperatively to promote nerve regeneration compared to the standard of care on surgery for acute nerve damage in the hand on subjects between the ages of 18 to 80 years old. Subjects who present with sever nerve damage of the hand and need surgery to repair the nerve damage within 48 hours of injury. After surgery, subjects will complete 12 total study visits: 6 in person and 6 additional telehealth visits. During the in-person clinic visits, subjects will be assessed by physical examinations, vital signs, safety laboratory assessment and complete questionnaires. Subjects with motor/mixed motor injury will also complete an EMG and NCV assessments with an Occupational Therapist at 2 of the in-person visits. During the telehealth visits, subjects will complete questionnaires.

A prospective, multicenter clinical trial of the TricValve® Transcatheter Bicaval Valve System in subjects with severe tricuspid regurgitation.

Date Added
April 22nd, 2025
PRO Number
Pro00143868
Researcher
Nicholas Amoroso

List of Studies


Keywords
Cardiovascular, Heart, Surgery
Summary

This study is enrolling subjects with tricuspid regurgitation, which is what occurs when the tricuspid heart valve on the right side of the heart does not close properly and blood leaks backwards. Over time this can lead to symptoms like shortness of breath and fluid build up in the legs, abdomen, and lungs. This study involves a new investigational device called the TricValve® Transcatheter Bicaval Valve system to treat the leaky valve. Investigational means it is not approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration. (FDA) This study will last about 5 years and include about 11 visits. Study related procedures include physical exams, right heart catheterization (an invasive procedure to check pressures inside the heart), echocardiograms (ultrasound test of the heart), CT scan, blood work, questionnaires, hall walk test and procedure to place the device. Risks include those related to the device and procedure such as infection, failure of the device, worsening of your symptoms or other cardiac complications. There are also risks associated with study testing such as radiation risks, blood draw risks, loss of confidentiality and unknown risks. There is potential benefit to you and to others in the future from what is learned from this study.

PULSED AF Post-Approval Study, an Addendum to the PulseSelect™ PFA Global Registry

Date Added
January 14th, 2025
PRO Number
Pro00141768
Researcher
Rachel Kaplan

List of Studies

Keywords
Heart, Surgery
Summary

This study is enrolling subjects who are undergoing an atrial fibrillation ablation. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a condition where the heart beats rapidly and irregularly. An ablation procedure can destroy the tissue in the heart that transmits the irregular electrical signals that cause the AF. The ablation procedure will use the PulseSelect™ PFA System which is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and uses electroporation (electrical pulses) to destroy the heart tissue.

This study will last about 2 years and include up to 6 visits, some of which can be done virtually. Study procedures include data collection, questionnaires, electrocardiogram (ECG) - which is a tracing of the heart's electrical activity, echocardiogram (Echo) - which is an ultrasound test of the heart, and a Holter monitor - which is a wearable device that continuously records heart rhythm.

Outcomes for VersaCoreTM Hydrogel Technology (VersaWrap® Tendon Protector, VersaCoatTM Tendon Protector) in Achilles Tendon Repair

Date Added

PRO Number

Researcher
Christopher Gross

List of Studies


Keywords
Arthritis, Bone, Joint, Pain, Surgery
Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of a novel, bioresorbable hydrogel sheet and wetting solution, VersaWrap®, in surgeries of the foot and ankle. This is a prospective, multi-center, controlled case series with patients identified by the Investigator in his practice. Patients who are scheduled to have procedures of the Achilles tendon will be reviewed to determine if they meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria. If eligible, patients may be enrolled in the study, and the operative surgeon will use VersaWrap® during the procedure. Patients are considered enrolled when VersaWrap® is placed intraoperatively. VersaWrap® has received its FDA 510(k) clearance. Enrollment is expected to take approximately 1-2 years. All subjects will be followed for 1 year post-operatively for a total study duration of approximately 3 years. Study follow-up visits will occur at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after surgery. Patients enrolled in this study are receiving a standard of care surgical procedure (with or
without VersaWrap) and therefore there is no increased risk of the surgical procedure when participating in the study. The study collects patient data, and therefore there is a risk data privacy loss. Patients will also receive remuneration for their participation.

Summary

This study is being conducted in women who are at least 22 years old,+ and will be undergoing either a unilateral or bilateral mastectomy with immediate two-stage post-mastectomy alloplastic prepectoral breast reconstruction (initial insertion of a tissue expander on top of the chest wall muscle followed by change-over to a breast implant after a period of tissue expander inflation).

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Melodi Matrix. .

The Melodi Matrix is an absorbable mesh that contains antibacterial agents (medicines that fight infections caused by bacteria) and is wrapped around tissue expanders before being implanted. After approximately 9 weeks, the mesh will fully absorb into the body.

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effective use of Stryker's PEEK Customized Implants in patients receiving craniofacial (head and facial) surgery. Other objectives include using a CT scan to assist surgeons with providing a solution to complex and simple reconstruction challenges and reducing them to a single or two-stage procedure, thereby minimizing the overall surgery time and limiting the number of surgeries. Patient questionnaires and health information will be used during the study to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the implants. We will be enrolling ages 4 - 75 years old.
