Pain and Music Therapy in Patients Suffering Arteritis

It is estimated that 800,000 people in France suffer from peripheral artery disease (PAD), of whom 1-2% present the most severe form critical limb ischaemia (CLI). In this situation, the patient frequently presents painful non-healing ulcers and focal gangrene. Wound care is generally associated with increasing pain. Pain relief may be challenging in spite of major analgesics. Several studies in this country and elsewhere assessed the usefulness of music for chronic or acute pain relief during care. However, no data are published regarding the interest of music therapy for pain relief during local care in PAD patients.

Comparison of Two Lower Limb Bypass Types : Prosthesis Versus Autologous Vein

When medical treatments fail, critical ischemia of the lower limb often leads to surgery, i.e. above knee femoro popliteal bypass. This bypass can be performed either with DACRON or PTFE prosthesis or with the autologous saphenous vein. Both technics are used but they have not been compared regarding bypass permeability and limb salvage. Thus, this study will compare the permeability rate of above knee femoro popliteal surgery whether performed with autologous vein versus prosthesis

National Multicenter Cohort Registry Study of Rapid rEcurrences of Coronary Unexplained In-stent Restenosis

This project aims to establish a clinical cohort and diagnostic assessment framework by conducting a national multicenter cohort registry study. Through the collection of patients' clinical characteristics, it will achieve the registration, management, follow-up, and analysis of patients with Rapid rEcurrences of Coronary Unexplained in-stent Restenosis (RECUR).
