Research activities of the Jobst Vascular Center at The Toledo Hospital, Toledo, Ohio, will impact the care of patients with vascular disease into the next century.

Research milestones include:

• Leading the largest trial ever of non-operative, medical therapy for claudication (painful walking due to leg artery blockage).
• Pioneering follow-up methods by ultrasound monitoring to improve the results of leg artery bypass grafting.
• Studying control of aortic aneurysm by medication without surgery.
• Developing novel methods for venous surgery by minimally invasive, endoscopic techniques.
• Improving methods of carotid surgery to prevent stroke.
• Developing endovascular procedures and devices to improve care of aortic aneurysms and reduce length of stay.
