Shockwave balloon challenges Gold-Standard surgery for clogged leg arteries

NCT ID NCT06829914

Summary

This study is testing if a newer, less invasive procedure using a special Shockwave balloon is as safe and effective as traditional surgery for treating severe, hardened blockages in the main leg artery. Researchers will randomly assign 60 participants with painful leg cramps or poor circulation to receive either the Shockwave procedure or surgery. The goal is to see if the newer technique can provide similar long-term relief while potentially offering a quicker recovery.
