E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To demonstrate that the use of US-accelerated catheter-directed thrombolysis (EKOS EndoWave™) in patients with acute and sub-acute (less than 7 weeks) thrombosed infra-inguinal bypass grafts or native arteries with half the dose urokinase (50.000 I.U./h) will significantly reduce hemorrhagic complication rate compared with US-accelerated catheter-directed thrombolysis with the standard dose urokinase (100.000 I.U. /h) with comparable technical success rates. |
Om aan te tonen dat ultrageluid geassisteerde thrombolyse (EKOS Endowave™) in patiënten met acute en subacute occlusie van infra-inguinale bypass of natieve arterie met de halve dosis Urokinase (50.000 I.U./h) het aantal bloedingscomplicaties significant reduceert in vergelijking met de normale dosis Urokinase (100.000 I.U. /h) met dezelfde technische succes percentages. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Effectiveness of lower dose Urokinase, also compared to duration of treatment and the total units of Urokinase needed to treat. |
Effectiviteit van lagere dosis Urokinase, in vergelijking met de duur van de behandeling en het totaal eenheden van Urokinase. |
