Microvascular Reactivity.

Completed

• Conditions: Diabetes; Retinopathy; Vascular Pathology

• Registration Number: NCT00259701
• Lead Sponsor: Yale University

Brief Summary

This study attempts to test capillary responses to various challenges without the need for iontophoresis (electrical current).

Detailed Description

Studies of microvascular responsiveness often employ iontophoresis to fascilitate drug absorption. Iontophoresis is a confounding stimulus in such studies, and we are attempting to create tests of the microvasculature that do not require iontophoretic drug delivery.
