Filter by:This study explore AAA prevalence in OSAHS patients by ultrasound screening and try to analysis risk factors of AAA in OSAHS patients.
Blood supply to the sigmoid colon during open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair is at risk. Ischemia of the sigmoid colon after AAA repair is potentially devastative. No reliable measures to prevent it are available and the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. The aim of this study is to describe intraoperative perfusion patterns of the sigmoid colon during open AAA repair and their potential impact on postoperative outcome.
Comparative study on efficacy of haemostatic therapy guided either by standard laboratory coagulation parameters or point-of-care testing in patients undergoing vascular surgical procedures. We investigate the amount of perioperative bleeding and the number of blood product used. Inclusion criteria Patients scheduled for elective and acute open aorta surgery or undergoing acute aorta surgery with minimally invasive techniques and were provided treatment in the operating theatre and/or ICU attached to perioperative care, they must be at least 18 years of age and written informed consent was obtained from the patient or his/her legal representative. Randomisation technique Patients will be randomly assigned to each of two treatment groups using sealed envelopes. In group 1 (G1) haemostasis strategy guided by conventional coagulation tests, while in group 2 (G2) transfusion algorithms guided by point-of-care (POC) tests will be carried out. Sampling techniques and measurements For assessment of monitored parameters shall be used arterial or venous blood depending on the catheter placed preoperatively. In case of the above mentioned vascular surgical procedures, all patients will receive arterial cannula routinely, and, depending on the extension of procedure, as appropriate, a central venous catheter will be inserted as well. Sampling in the patient groups shall be performed as follows: - pre- and postoperative evaluation of standard laboratory parameters in all patients - evaluation of standard laboratory parameters and arterial Astrup test during and after surgery in group 1, if the blood loss volume reaches 1,5 ml/kg/minute during 20 minutes - in case of elective surgery: thromboelastometry and arterial Astrup test during and after surgery in group 2 if the blood loss volume reaches 1,5 ml/kg/minute during 20 minutes - in case of acute surgery: thromboelastometry and arterial Astrup test before, during and after surgery in group 2 - in case of positive anamnesis, preoperative platelet aggregation test in both groups Besides the above samplings, routine lab tests (blood gas, blood count, sodium (Na), potassium (K), parameters of renal and liver function, clotting and inflammation, lactic acid, blood sugar) will be performed every day as usual during intensive therapy.
Serum uric acid level is a commonly measured biomarker. The association between serum uric acid level and the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases has been observed in some studies, while others showed controversial results. Estimation of this association may help to predict cardiovascular outcomes and may guide new treatment strategies. The hypothesis is that increased serum uric acid level is associated with a range of cardiovascular diseases.
This is a global, prospective non-interventional, multi-centre, post-market study of the Vascutek Thoraflex™ Hybrid system in patients with acute thoracic aortic syndrome, subacute/chronic dissection of the aorta and aortic aneurysm.
This is a prospective study designed to determine the safety and value of Hypoxyprobe-1 (pimonidazole hydrochloride (-HCl)) to detect levels of tissue hypoxia in patients presenting with ascending aortic aneurysm.
The objective of this prospective cohort study is to determine the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in patients with and without thoracic aortic aneurysm.
This is an intersectional and interdisciplinary screening program in Viborg Municipality, including 67 years old citizens. This observational study will estimate the cost-effectiveness of a combined screening program for the following conditions: Abdominal aortic aneurysm, peripheral arterial disease, carotid plaque, hypertension, arrhythmia, and type-2-diabetes. Furthermore, the incidence of the outlined conditions will be described and so will the result of the intervention initiated (secondary medical prophylaxis, smoking cessation, introduction to nutritionally deficient diet etc.)
This study is a data linkage project within which we aim to model the impact on the NHS AAA Screening programme of a targeted approach to screening by targeting men who smoke. This in-silico study will generate a hypothetical population based on primary care datasets with known outcomes from screening (we know which men have an aneurysm and who do not) to determine the feasibility and safety of this approach.
