Filter by:The aim of the study is to assess if venous distension in patients with aneurysmatic arteriopathy is higher compared to patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) and in controls.
This is a Phase IV multicenter, open-label study and is being implemented in order to assess diagnostic image quality of MDCTA in subjects undergoing computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the thoraco-abdominal aorta, and the carotid, pulmonary and peripheral arteries with IOMERON.
The aim of the investigator is to implement 4D FLOW MRI technique into a clinical setting and evaluate the blood flow pattern and wall sheer stress in patients with aortic and/or aortic valve diseases.
This prospective study was designed to analyse the postoperative and long-term outcomes of total laparoscopic vs. open surgical repair of infra-renal abdominal aortic occlusive disease (AOD) and infra-renal aortic aneurysmal disease (AAA) in comparable groups of patients using a propensity analysis model.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the Asian Pacific population
This is a French Registry mandated by the French National Health Authority assessing long-term (5-years) safety of the GORE® TAG® Thoracic Endoprosthesis treating diseases of the thoracic aorta.
CD39 and CD73 was known protein expressed on surface of Th1 and Th17 cell and modulate immune related reaction. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) can induce inflammatory reaction during cardiac surgery, and induce immunosuppression. Propofol and volatile anesthetics were related to immune reaction. However, the effect of propofol and sevoflurane on the change of CD39 and CD73 after CPB was not evaluated in previous studies. The authors hypothesized that the expression of CD39 and CD73 would differ between propofol- and volatile anaesthetic-based anaesthesia in patients undergoing CPB. Therefore, the present study determined the effect of propofol and sevoflurane on CD39 and CD73 during and after CPB.
The objective of this study is to assess the benefits of endovascular technique in terms of efficacy and safety of Valiant Thoracic Stent Graft with the Captivia Delivery System in the treatment of thoracic aortic disease, in a cohort of patients representative of the population treated under real-life conditions of use in France for up to 5 years.
Open elective abdominal aortic surgery is a high risk procedure involving clamping of the aorta. Indications include abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) or aortic occlusive disease (AOD) causing lower limb ischaemia. These patients are often regarded as one entity in postoperative study settings. However, previous studies indicate that risk profiles, inflammatory activity, and haemodynamic capacity may differ between these groups. The first aim of this study was to evaluate postoperative ICU-requirements after open elective abdominal aortic surgery, hypothesising that AAA-patients had longer ICU-stays and needed more mechanical ventilation or acute dialysis than did patients with AOD. The investigators see a relatively high incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) following aortic surgery. Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalcin (NGAL) may be useful in the early diagnosis of postopeative AKI. However, NGAL is also known as a marker of inflammatory activation. The ischaemia-reperfusion injury and subsequent inflammatory response to aortic cross clamping may per se induce a rise in NGAL despite intact renal function. Therefore NGAL may not be a reliable marker of AKI after AAS. The second aim of this study is to describe the changes in NGAL after AAS in patients with and without postoperative dialysis-dependent AKI.
The purpose of this study is to assess the benefits of endovascular repair with Endurant Stent Graft System by documenting overall mortality, complications, the rate of conversion to open surgical repair, and the development and rupture of the aneurysm on a long term, i.e. at 5 years, in a cohort of patients representative of the population treated under real-life conditions of use in France.
