SVS VQI TransCarotid Revascularization Surveillance Project

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Carotid Artery Disease

In brief

The VQI TCAR Surveillance Project is designed to monitor the safety and effectiveness of stents placed directly into the carotid artery while reversing blood flow within the carotid artery to reduce stroke risk. It will compare this less-invasive surgical procedure with standard carotid endarterectomy in centers that participate in the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative.
