Clinical Trial and Commercialization of a Wearable Therapeutic Ultrasound Device for Peripheral Arterial Disease - Project Summary Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) Is a Highly Prevalent Condition That Is Growing Rapidly Due to Shifting Demographics, Affecting 202M People Worldwide and 18M in the Usa, With an Annual Growth Rate of 6.8%. Approximately One-third of Pad Patients Experience Lower Extremity Pain That Limits Activity, and One-third of These Patients Suffer From Critical Limb Ischemia (cli), Which Lacks Any Effective Treatment Option and Is Associated With Devastating Complications Including Resting Pain, Skin Ulcers, and Gangrene, With 30% of Patients Requiring Amputation and a Mortality Rate of 25% Within 1 Year Post Diagnosis. Invasive Surgical or Catheter-based Treatments Are Ineffective in Cli and Associated With Complications and Up to 40% Rate of Long- Term Restenosis. Acoustic Energy Modalities Have Been Shown to Promote Collateral Vessel Growth, Angiogenesis, and to Improve Perfusion in Animal Models of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and Pad, With Promising Early Human Data in Both Disease Processes. Vibrato Medical Has Developed a Groundbreaking New Treatment With the First Wearable Therapeutic Ultrasound (TUS) Device for the Non-invasive, Outpatient Treatment of Pad That Promotes Collateral Vessel Growth and Angiogenesis, and Restores Perfusion. the Vibratosleeve Is a Disruptive, Paradigm-shifting Device That Will Fundamentally Alter the Pad/cli Landscape With a Non-invasive, Wearable, Outpatient Treatment (1-8 Hours During Rest or Sleep) That Will Prevent Amputations, Hospitalizations and Other Complications of Advanced Pad. We Have Already Demonstrated Vibratosleeve's Efficacy in Markedly Improving Lower Extremity Perfusion in Healthy Volunteers Using Multiple Perfusion Measures. the Goal of This Nih Phase Ii Sbir Proposal Is to Perform a Pilot Randomized, Sham-controlled Clinical Trial of the Vibratosleeve in 24 Pad Patients With Cli, Then Build a 2ND Generation Device With Which to Obtain 510(K) Clearance. in Aim 1, Vibrato Will Build a 16-CHANNEL Generator With Integrated Patient Interface Unit That Will Power the Wearable Vibratosleeve Array That Was Designed and Built in Phase 1. Six Total Systems Will Be Built, and Undergo Verification and Validation for Clinical Trial Readiness. in Aim 2, Vibrato Will Conduct a Double- Blinded, Randomized, Sham-controlled Clinical Trial of 24 Patients (rutherford Class 3-5 With Infra-popliteal Pad and No Revascularization Options) With DR. Mahmood Razavi at Vascular and Interventional Specialists of Orange County. in Aim 3, Based on the Efficacy, Safety and Patient Feedback Data From Aim 2, Vibrato Will Then Develop Its 2ND Generation Commercial Vibratosleeve and Its Entirely Portable Generator, Such That the Entire Device Will Be Wearable. With All Our Testing and Clinical Study Done, Vibrato Will Apply for Us Fda 510(K) Clearance of the Product as Well as Ce Approval for European Distribution.

Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then unspent ceiling.
