Peripheral artery disease

Our Vascular suite provides dedicated vascular interventional tools and advanced vascular devices to support high levels of standardisation and redefine outcomes for your PAD patients. They support each step of your procedure – as you decide, guide, treat and confirm treatment results.

Highlighted products for this procedure

SmartCT Roadmap for guidewire and catheter guidance

Accurate and dynamic 3D guidance

Full 3D view with reduced X-ray dose and contrast medium usage

Adapts to position changes in real-time

Variable settings to enhance visualisation

SmartCT Roadmap overlays a 3D reconstruction using SmartCT Angio or SmartCT Soft Tissue, to emphasise target vessel and lesions, aiding guidewire and catheter navigation through complex vessel structures. All controlled via the touch screen at the table.

SmartPerfusion digital subtraction angiography

SmartPerfusion for instant perfusion feedback

SmartPerfusion enables you to obtain stable, reliable and instant information of the foot perfusion¹while the patient is still on the table, to assess treatment effect. This image analysis tool provides functional information about tissue perfusion based on a digital subtraction angiography (DSA). You can compare perfusion characteristics in micro- and macro-circulation, pre- and post-intervention to quantify the effects of revascularisation procedures immediately after the procedure.

Read clinical case

SmartPerfusion case: Balloon Angiography of the distal Posterior Tibial Artery.

Patient:

55 year old male
Diabetic
Critical Limb Ischemia
Recent amputation of the 3rd toe, bad healing of the wound.
Posterior tibial artery occluded and fibular (peroneal) artery is fragile but without significant stenoses.

Treatment:

Balloon Angioplasty of the distal part of the Posterior Tibial Artery.
Peroneal Artery is too fragile to treat.

Stealing effect in Dorsalis Pedis Artery (DPA), based on pre and post comparison.

Posterior Tibial Artery (PTA) shows more and faster flow after treatment.

The forefoot is supplied with more blood after treatment.

Peak density drops after treatment in the DPA.
Area under curve reduces after treatment, indicating less blood to flow through the region of interest. This suggests a stealing effect due to opening of the PTA.

Conversely to the effect in the DPA, the PTA perfusion has increased.

Considering the whole forefoot, the perfusion characteristics have improved.

SmartPerfusion angiography is a huge help in deciding when to end endovascular treatments."

Peripheral imaging catheters

Our peripheral imaging catheters help assess the location of the disease and lesion morphology, including calcium and thrombus. IVUS can also be used to appropriately size stents and confirm completeness of treatment.

Peripheral atherectomy devices

Our peripheral atherectomy devices are excellent tools for removing blockages from the bloodstream. Our non-laser products operate as standalone devices that don't have to be paired with other systems.

Peripheral therapy devices

The adaptable Philips portfolio of peripheral vascular products and technologies help enable clinicians to quickly and accurately assess peripheral vascular patients, and prepare vessels for the precise delivery of optimal treatment.

Live image guidance with ClarityIQ technology

High-definition images of vessels with superior vascular detail to support precise treatment strategies, navigation and follow-up.

Philips SmartPerfusion

With perfusion angiography, physicians can conduct a simple and highly sensitive diagnostic test to predict whether a patient is likely to benefit from a second revascularisation.
