NCT ID NCT06318767
First seen Jun 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a quick ultrasound measurement of blood flow in the foot can predict major problems like limb loss or heart attacks in people with severe peripheral artery disease. Researchers will follow 134 patients for 6 months after surgery to see if the measure, called systolic rise time, is linked to these outcomes. The goal is to find a better way to monitor and manage this high-risk condition.
