Filter by:The treatment of aortic aneurysms is today based on different indicators (diameters, lengths, angles, volumes of the arteries) measured on CT scan images. Several indicators are time consuming and complicatated to measure. They demand training and practice. Nurea is developing a software for automatic measurement of these indicators, PRAEVAorta® 2, to facilitate and assist the physician in his clinical routine. The purpose of this study is to compare the analysis realised by the software PRAEVAorta® 2 with the analysis realised by the healthcare professional on retrospective CT scan images. Contrasted and non-contrasted, pre-operation or post-operation CT scans from 50 patients will be analysed. The main objectif is to validate the accuracy of the software by demonstrating its adequacy to the standard method of analysis. The second objectives are the following: - Evaluate the security of the software PRAEVAorta® 2 - Evaluate the unanticipated risks related to the use of the software - Validate the accessory PRAEVAorta® Web We make the following assumption : 90% of the patients show 90% of adequacy to the healthcare professional analysis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of Cook's various Custom-Made Stent-graft Devices (CMD) used for endovascular treatment of the aorta and related diseases by collecting information on the real-world use of the devices. The study results will be used to support the continuation of the CMDs on the market. In addition, the study will support the manufacturers obligation for post market product surveillance as well as Cook's technology development.
The objective of the study is to collect real-world data on patient outcomes and evaluate the safety and performance of the Lifetech Ankura™ AAA Stent Graft System, Ankura™ Cuff Stent Graft System, Ankura™ AUI Stent Graft System and ZoeTrack™ Super Stiff Guidewire.
The goal of this study is to learn about the effectiveness of TAP block for pain relief after vascular surgery on the abdominal aorta. The main question the investigators are looking to answer is whether the TAP block lowers the dose of opioid required after abdominal aortic surgery.
This is a multicenter, observational, prospective, single arm registry using Ovation Alto Endograft. A minimum of 50 up to a maximum of 120 subjects undergoing endovascular repair with Ovation Alto endograft will be enrolled and followed procedurally to discharge, at 1month, 6 months, 1 year and yearly afterward up to 3 years. This registry of Ovation Alto endograft will provide further assessment to confirm continuing safety and effectiveness of the graft and to confirm the stability of the neck diameter over time when treated with this device.
Single center, open label, prospective, single-arm, first-in-human (FIH), pre-market clinical study with the objective of validating the safety and performance of the Suture-Tight™ Suture Delivery System in an EVAR procedure.
We study differen t endovascular techniques as an alternative to surgical reconstruction to repair AAAS regarding ; success rates, 30-day mortality, endoleak events secondary intervention rates
The goal of this prospective observational cohort study is to compare health related quality of life in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms treated by either standard or complex EVAR (endovascular aneurysm repair) devices. The main question it aims to answer are: - Compare differences between the physical scores from the preoperative to the postoperative settings between patients treated with standard EVAR vs non-stnadard endovascular aortic repair (F-/BEVAR) - To compare long-term physical scores postoperatively between patients treated with standard EVAR vs non-standard endovascular aortic repair (F-/BEVAR) at one year. - To explore at which time points (if ever) patients treated with standard-EVAR and nonstandard endovascular aortic repair (F-/BEVAR) have restored or normalized physical scores measured by SF-12, measured at 30 days, 6 months, 1 and 3 years. Participants will be asked to fill out forms pre- and postoperatively with regards to health related quality of life. The different groups for comparison will be either standard EVAR for infrarenal aortic aneurysms or complex EVAR (fenestrated or branched) for paravisceral aortic aneurysms (PVAAA).
Beyond a certain threshold diameter, Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are treated by open surgical repair or, more often by endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). The latter involves implantation of a stent-graft and thereby exclusion of the AAA from the blood circuit. Small vessels supplying parts of the bowel or the spine are regularly covered. In a quarter of patients, this may result in an inversion of blood flow in the mentioned vessels, leading to persistent blood flow within the AAA, referred to as type II endoleak (T2EL). Occurrence of T2EL is associated with complications like AAA growth or even rupture. Secondary interventions to treat T2EL often fail and may be highly invasive. Various risk factors for T2EL have been described. This enables prediction whether a patient is at high risk for T2EL after EVAR. Deployment of metal coils in the aneurysm sac as part of the EVAR procedure can reduce the risk for T2EL.The present study aims to assess the efficacy of sac embolization during EVAR to prevent T2EL.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a localized dilatation of a segment of the aorta artery in its abdominal portion. It affects 1.7% of men aged 65 years and older. In the high-risk population (male smokers aged 65-75 years), its prevalence is estimated to be between 2.8 and 9%. Mortality of ruptured AAAs is high (80% of deaths before hospitalization or perioperatively), whereas mortality of scheduled procedures for unruptured AAAs is less than 5%. AAA screening has been shown to significantly reduce the specific mortality rate in the medium and long term. The French National Authority for Health (HAS) recommends targeted screening for AAA by ultrasound at the radiologist. The target population is male smokers or former smokers aged 65 to 75 years, as well as all persons aged 50 to 75 years with a family history of AAA. Despite recommendations, the rate of access to targeted screening appears low. Ultrasound screening for AAA is a rapid, noninvasive, and reproducible test. It relies primarily on the measurement of the maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta in cross-section. It has been demonstrated that the learning of the ultrasound screening procedure for AAA is very fast and that the performance of non-radiologists trained in this procedure alone is similar to that of radiologists. In addition, new ultra-portable ultrasound devices, inexpensive and with validated performances have appeared on the market in the last few years, making it possible to equip general practitioners (GPs). We propose a simplified care pathway for AAA screening, by equipping GPs with an ultra-portable ultrasound scanner and by training them to perform the screening procedure, which will be performed in the office or at the patient's home, during a usual consultation of general medicine. Our hypothesis is that this new organization will allow better access to screening for the target population, at a lower cost, compared to the current screening method recommended by the HAS (referral of the patient to the radiologist).
