COMPLETED
Sex
All
Target Recruitment
119
Inclusion Criteria
  • Patient age ≥ 18
  • Patient presents with acute (≤14 days) occlusion of lower limb artery(ies) (below inguinal ligament)
  • Patient with a Rutherford Category I, IIa or IIb score
  • Frontline treatment with Indigo Aspiration System
  • Informed consent is obtained from either patient or legally authorized representative (LAR)
Exclusion Criteria
  • Life expectancy <1 year
  • Vessel size <2 mm
  • LE ALI secondary to dissections, vasculitis, and/or target vessel trauma
  • Amputation in the ipsilateral limb
  • Pregnancy or positive pregnancy test according to site specific standards of care (only required for women of child bearing potential, serum or urine acceptable)
  • Absolute contraindication to contrast administration
  • Patient is unwilling or unable to comply with protocol follow up schedule and/or based on the Investigator's judgment the patient is not a good study candidate
  • Currently participating in an investigational drug or device clinical trial that may confound the study endpoints. Patients in observational, natural history, and/or epidemiological studies not involving intervention are eligible.

Study & Design

Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Study Design
Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Target Limb Salvage Rate1-Month Post Procedure

Proportion of participants who did not have a major amputation (above the level of the tarsometatarsal joint)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Technical SuccessImmediate Post Procedure

Defined as TIMI 2/3 flow rate

TIMI flow grade:

Grade 0 No perfusion Grade 1 Perfusion past initial occlusion but no distal branch filling. Grade 2 Perfusion with incomplete or slow distal branch filling. Grade 3 Full perfusion with filling of all distal branches.

Modified Society for Vascular Surgery Runoff ScorePre Procedure and immediately Post Procedure

Endpoint is change in modified SVS Runoff Score at post-procedure

Modified SVS runoff score ranges from 1-19, with a higher score indicating more severe disease

Improvement of Rutherford ClassificationUp to discharge or 7 days, whichever occurred first

Improvement of one or more as compared to pre-procedure

Rutherford classification:

I.Viable Not immediately threatened

IIa.Threatened Marginally Salvageable if promptly treated

IIb. Threatened Immediately Salvageable with immediate revascularization

III. Irreversible

Vessel Patency1-Month Post-Procedure

Patency is defined as a target lesion without a hemodynamically significant stenosis /reocclusion on duplex ultrasound (\>50 %, ) and without target lesion reintervention (TLR ).

Target Limb Salvage Rate12-Months Post Procedure

Proportion of participants who did not have a major amputation (above the level of the tarsometatarsal joint)

Rates of Device Related Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Up until study completion, at approximately 12-Months

A SAE is an event that led to death, led to a serious deterioration in the health of the patient that resulted in life-threatening illness or injury, resulted in chronic disease, resulted in permanent impairment of a body structure or a body function, required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in medical or surgical intervention to arrest permanent impairment to body structure or a body function, led to fetal distress, fetal death or a congenital abnormality or birth defect

Major Bleeding Peri-procedurewithin 2 days of procedure

Fatal or leading to a drop in hemoglobin of ≥5 g /dl, or significant hypotension with the need for inotropes, or requiring surgery (other than vascular site repair ), or symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (ICH ), or requiring transfusion of two or three units of red blood cells or equivalent whole blood

Mortality12-Months

Death due to any cause
