Summary
This trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of a stent to treat blocked veins in the legs.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with symptomatic vein blockages in the leg who haven't had previous stenting or grafts, don't have significant artery disease, recent major amputations, or certain blood conditions. They must be able to receive a GORE® VIAFORT Vascular Stent and follow treatment plans including medications.
What is being tested?
The study tests the GORE® VIAFORT Vascular Stent's performance and safety in treating venous obstructions in the leg. It's a single-arm study where all participants receive the stent to see how well it works and what risks are involved.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include pain at the insertion site, bleeding, infection risk from surgery, allergic reactions to materials or medications used during procedure (like contrast agents), and possible clotting issues.
