Filter by:The Zenith(R) Connection Endovascular Covered Stent Clinical Study is a clinical investigation to study the safety and performance of the Zenith(R) Connection Endovascular Covered Stent in conjunction with the Zenith(R) Branch Endovascular Graft-Iliac Bifurcation in the treatment of aorto-iliac and iliac aneurysms.
Preconditioning in patients treated for elective abdominal aneurysm showed that the rate of perioperative myocardial infarction could be reduced by 80 %(ARR from 27% to 5%). Precondition where performed by 10 minutes of clamping of each iliac arteries before clamping the abdominal aorta. Human studies in cardiac patients have shown promising results with precondition. Instead of clamping arteries they have all performed the procedure by inflating a blood pressure cuff above arterial pressure on a arm. The investigators want to investigate if preconditioning induced by a blood pressure cuff on a arm can reduce the perioperative rate of myocardial infarction in patients open operated for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the morbidity, mortality, and efficacy of use of the Enterprise(TM) stent for the treatment of (ruptured or non-ruptured) intracranial aneurysms.
The purpose for this study is to determine if surgery (repair of descending thoracic aneurysm) causes a temporary decrease in the Blood Brain Barrier's ability to remove drugs from the brain back into the blood. The Blood Brain Barrier surrounds the brain and the spinal cord. This Blood Brain Barrier acts as a filter and allows some things to cross into the brain and allows other matter to be removed. Studies have shown the Blood Brain Barrier is affected by inflammation. Functions of the Blood Brain Barrier in animals have been studied. Human studies with multiple causes of inflammation (e.g. Alzheimer's, Epilepsy, trauma and severe infections in critically Hypothesis: Surgically-induced inflammation will temporarily reduce blood-brain barrier drug efflux transporter function in proportion to the degree of inflammation. The investigators anticipate that inflammation-mediated reductions in drug transporter function will be reflected by an increased cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) concentration of morphine (a PGP substrate) and M3G and M6G (MRP1 substrates). The corresponding in vitro studies will allow us to elucidate the mechanism(s) by which inflammation alters blood brain barrier efflux transport of morphine, M3G and M6G.
The Zenith(R) Fenestrated AAA Endovascular Graft Clinical Study is a clinical investigation approved by the US FDA to study the safety and effectiveness of the Zenith(R) Fenestrated AAA Endovascular Graft in the treatment of abdominal aortic and aorto-iliac aneurysms.
To assess the safety and efficacy of the GORE Conformable TAG® Thoracic Endoprosthesis in the primary treatment of aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta (DTA) > Primary Hypothesis: The proportion of subjects free from a major device event through 1 month post-treatment will not be significantly less than 0.95, which represents the proportion observed in previous clinical studies with the GORE TAG® Thoracic Endoprosthesis
The purpose of ENGAGE is to prospectively collect global 'real world' data on the Endurant Stent Graft System from AAA subjects.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the contents in blood sampled from surgery site during hip replacement compared with blood sampled from abdominal aortic surgery. Is there any difference in pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α), complement activation (C3a)?
The Zenith® Low Profile AAA Endovascular Graft Clinical Study is a clinical trial approved by US FDA to study the safety and effectiveness of the Zenith® Low Profile AAA Endovascular Graft to treat abdominal aortic, aorto-iliac, and iliac aneurysms.
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of in situ fibrinolysis on the mortality at 30 days in case of subarachnoid hemorrhage.
