Foot ultrasound may predict limb loss risk in severe PAD patients
NCT ID NCT06318767
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a quick ultrasound measurement of blood flow in the foot (called systolic rise time) can predict major limb events like amputation or severe ischemia in people with critical limb ischemia. Researchers will follow 134 patients for 6 months after surgery to see if this measurement correlates with complications. The goal is to find a better way to monitor these high-risk patients.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could give doctors a simple, non-invasive way to predict which patients with severe leg artery disease are at highest risk for limb loss or heart problems.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study with only 134 participants. The measurement may not prove reliable enough to change clinical practice, and results may not apply to all patients.
