New study tests orbital atherectomy to save limbs in patients with severe leg artery disease
NCT ID NCT07270562
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will follow 250 people with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) across Europe to see how well orbital atherectomy works in real life. The procedure uses a tiny spinning tool to gently remove hard calcium from leg arteries, making it easier for balloons or stents to open the vessel. The goal is to improve blood flow and reduce the risk of amputation.
