Filter by:Introduction: Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is a major inconvenience in the use of iodinated contrast media (ICM) and it is associated with a significant increase in morbimortality and cost of hospitalization. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a non-invasive and cost-effective tissular protection technique that has proven beneficial in decreasing renal insult in patients receiving intravascular contrast. Aim: The primary outcome of this study is to evaluate the impact of RIPC on the incidence of CIN in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair.Material and Methods: Patients suffering from aortic aneurysm were recruited prior to the administration of iodinated contrast media. Randomization was used to assign patients into the control/RIPC groups. Biochemical parameters determined renal function before and after surgery in immediate (24-72 hours) and at 30 days' follow-up.
This clinical study will capture clinical data specific to the performance and safety of the LeMaitre® CARDIAL Dialine II. It is a retrospective, monocenter, post-market safety and performance study. Following the new MDR regulation, this study will allow the clinical data of the prosthesis to be completed in order to renew its CE marking.
The overall aim is to determine the frequency by which women and men with intact abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are treated with elective surgery at three vascular outpatient clinics in Europe, and to investigate whether the reasons to refrain from elective surgery differ between the sexes.
Scalp arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rarely encountered vascular scalp anomalies that represent 8% of all AVMs. Different terms are being used to describe the vascular anomalies of the scalp include cirsoid aneurysm, racemosum aneurysm, plexiform angioma, arteriovenous fistula and arteriovenous malformation. Derived from the Greek language, kirsos, the term cirsoid aneurysm is used to describe the AVM as it resembles varix. Case studies reported approximately 200 cases with increased prevalence during the last 15 years. The etiology of scalp AVMs remains controversial, it can be spontaneous or traumatic. They generally develop in the trauma background and in patients over 30-year-old while spontaneous scalp AVM may present at birth and remains asymptomatic until adulthood.
The physician modified endograft is intended for treating complex, pararenal, juxtarenal and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms requiring coverage of renal arteries, the superior mesenteric artery or the celiac trunk in high-risk patients who do not have an option for endovascular repair with an FDA approved endograft and have an appropriate anatomy. There will be one investigational site with a total of 40 subjects to be enrolled. Time to complete enrollment will be 24 months and the subject follow-up time will be five years from last subject enrollment. The primary safety endpoint is freedom from major adverse events (MAE) at 30 days or during hospitalization if this exceeds 30 days. The primary effectiveness endpoint is the proportion of study subjects with treatment success at one year. The subjects will be followed at one month, six months, one year, and yearly thereafter for a total period of five years. Subjects will be followed up clinically for life. Clinical exam follow up may be phone or video visit with CT scan evaluation and duplex ultrasound as needed. The proportion of treatment group subjects that achieve and maintain treatment success annually to five years will be investigated.
This is a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients submitted to elective EVAR, between February/2009 and May/2019 in a single institution. Symptomatic or ruptured AAA, mycotic aneurysms, isolated iliac aneurysms and complex abdominal aortic repairs were excluded. The primary outcomes were freedom from secondary intervention and compliance with follow-up, defined as surveillance imaging performed within a periodicity no longer than 18 months.
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the eCLIPs™ products for the treatment of bifurcation aneurysms.
The aim was to determine, within the patient enrolled in three controlled prospective studies, INNOVATION, INSPIRATION and INSIGHT (Sponsor: Cordis, A Cardinal Health Company) studies which are preoperative and postoperative anatomical risk factors associated to limb occlusion. In the three studies the total number of enrolled patients was 400, of whom 134 enrolled in the US
Patients who will undergo a intracranial aneurysm (IA) surgery are educated concerning their disease and the surgical procedure.The objective of this study is to explore the advantages of conventional, virtual reality and 3D stereolithographic models for patient and resident education in the treatment of lAs.
Intracranial aneurysm rupture is a leading cause of hemorrhagic strokes which carry high mortality and disability rates as well as high healthcare costs. Unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) are common in the general population, occurring in 1-2% of individuals. Previous studies have shown that UIA growth and rupture are strongly associated with each other, with growing aneurysms 9-12 times more likely to rupture, and nearly all aneurysms growing prior to rupture. Thanks to advanced medical imaging, UIA are now more and more often detected incidentally. However not all aneurysms qualify for preventive surgical or interventional procedures according to current International Study of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms (ISUIA) guidelines, and some must therefore be monitored for growth. Current guidelines are based heavily on size, an inconsistent predictor of future growth. To improve management strategies for individual patients and more comprehensively assess aneurysm risk, the investigators propose to identify risk factors related to growth. Aneurysm etiology is multifactorial, with both genetic and environmental contributions to aneurysm formation, growth, and rupture. Exploring new risk factors based on aneurysm natural history and understanding the mechanisms underlying aneurysm rupture have been extensive research areas. As previous studies have shown that quantitative imaging biomarkers (QIB) can provide a more accurate assessment of the characteristics of aneurysms, the investigators propose a combined study which identifies QIB associated with aneurysm growth to identify factors related to growth.
