Summary
This trial aims to investigate if taking MitoQ for six months can help improve the symptoms and function of people with peripheral artery disease, specifically those experiencing leg pain while walking. We will be looking at
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with peripheral artery disease (PAD) or peripheral vascular disease (PVD), who experience leg pain while walking. Participants should be willing to undergo various assessments, including muscle oxygen tests, walking evaluations, quality of life surveys, ankle pressure measurements, and a needle biopsy.
What is being tested?
The study investigates whether MitoQ supplementation over six months can improve walking ability and daily activity levels in PAD patients with intermittent claudication. It also examines the impact on muscle health and overall quality of life.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not explicitly listed but may include discomfort from the needle biopsy procedure and any reactions related to MitoQ supplementation which could vary among individuals.
