Ocular Perfusion in Patients With Unilateral Carotid Artery Stenosis

NCT06398223 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 45

Last updated 2024-05-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the presented study is to evaluate ocular blood flow, respectively optic nerve head blood flow in patients with carotid artery stenosis before and after carotid endarterectomy or carotid artery stenting. Additionally, the investigators aim to compare optic nerve head blood flow in patients with CAS and healthy age- and sex-matched control subjects. Furthermore, the investigators intend to evaluate brain tissue oxygenation in patients with carotid artery stenosis before, during and after CEA and carotid artery stenting. Finally, the investigators will assess potential correlations between LSFG and NIRS results in patients with unilateral carotid artery stenosis.

Conditions

  • Carotid Artery Stenosis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Carotid endarterectomy (CEA)

Carotid endarterectomy (CEA): Surgical procedure to remove the plaque buildup in the carotid artery.

PROCEDURE

Carotid artery stenting

Carotid artery stenting: Treatment of the stenosis with a stent. The plaque in the artery wall is not removed but the narrowing is dilated.
