Research summary
This study concerns a serious medical condition called acute limb ischemia.
This occurs when blood suddenly stops flowing through the vessels in the legs, which can damage tissue.
One possible treatment is to remove the blood clot using a CE certified device called the Indigo™ aspiration system. This system helps to clear blocked vessels so that blood can flow again. The aim is to protect tissue, prevent the situation from worsening, and help the patient recover.
The purpose of this study is to verify the safety and effectiveness of this treatment as per standard of care.
The Indigo system is a medical device authorized in the United States (by the FDA) and in Europe (CE certification). The device has UK approval under their own CE marking.
Up to 300 patients in approximately 50 hospitals worldwide will participate in this study.
The study will last approximately 4 years. Each patient will be followed for 6 months, with visits or calls scheduled:
- upon discharge from the hospital (or after 7 days, whichever comes first)
- 30 days after the procedure
- 180 days (6 months) after the procedureREC name
