Ischemia Limb

This is a first-in-human, prospective, single-arm, phase I clinical study evaluating the safety of the iPerf femoral arterial cannula in patients undergoing planned cardiac surgery requiring extracorporeal circulation (ECC) via a femoral approach for up to 6 hours. The iPerf device is a dual-lumen arterial cannula designed to provide systemic and lower limb perfusion during ECC, with the goal of reducing the risk of acute limb ischemia. The study will be conducted at a single center in France and will include 15 adult patients. Primary outcomes focus on procedure-related and late adverse events up to 30 days post-surgery. Secondary objectives include assessment of ischemic events, tissue oxygen saturation, and surgeon satisfaction with device handling. The study aims to demonstrate feasibility and safety of the iPerf cannula as an innovative solution for lower limb perfusion during femoral artery cannulation.

This is an open, observational, prospective, descriptive, single-centre study including 60 patients. The study is designed to investigate if IscAlert sensor system can be used for reliable and continuous tissue carbon dioxide (pCO2)- and temperature monitoring in muscular tissue in lower extremity in patients at risk of developing acute compartment syndrome.
