Filter by:The objective of this study is to investigate safety and performance of the Free Margin Cusp sizer. The device will be used during aortic valve repair and sparing procedures as a caliper to measure the aortic valve free margin length at different stages of the procedure. The patient will be followed for one year clinically (at 1, 2, 6 and 12 months) and by echocardiography (at 6 and 12 months) to assess aortic valve function.
Background: Open repair remains the gold standard for fit patients with complex AAA. In the past decade, an evolution of devices, design, components, and delivery systems expanded the application of EVAR in these challenging anatomies. Fenestrated stent-grafts are now commercially available for the repair of complex AAA in the United States and Europe. Initial reports have demonstrated a high technical success rate, low renal dysfunction rate, and low morbidity and mortality, with promising short- and long-term results. Other reports have shown excessive morbidity and mortality with fenestrated EVAR (FEVAR). Studies comparing endovascular and open repair are sparse, especially when it concerns long-term outcomes. There are till nowadays only two propensity score-matched studies, one showing worse short-term and another long-term clinical outcome for fenestrated-branched EVAR (F/BEVAR) over open surgical repair (OSR). Aim: The aim of this study will be to compare F/BEVAR versus open AAA repair on short- and long-term clinical outcomes for the treatment of juxta- and pararenal AAA. Methodology: This is a prospective cohort study from the four high-volume AAA repair centers: Belgrade/Serbia, Bologna/Italy, Milan/Italy, Dijklander/Netherland, Amsterdam/Netherland, and Helsinki/Finland. Data will be collected on demographics, baseline comorbidities, AAA parameters (diameter and localization), laboratory values, intra-, and postoperative data. Follow-up examinations (clinical visits and color duplex ultrasonography, CT scans) will be performed 1, 6, and 12 months after the intervention, and annually thereafter. Propensity score analysis will be performed by matching open repair patients to endovascularly treated controlling for demographics and baseline comorbidities. Endpoints: Primary endpoints are all-cause mortality and the freedom from aortic-related reintervention. The secondary endpoint is the 30-day complication rate, especially acute kidney injury according to the RIFLE criteria.
The EASY post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to demonstrate safety and clinical performance of the E-tegra Stent Graft System used in endovascular treatment of infrarenal aortic aneurysm.
This randomized controlled trial aim to determine the impact on renal function after treatment for infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with stentgrafts either with active supra- or infrarenal fixation.
A prospective, single-center, non-blind, non-randomized safety and feasibility study of the hybrid repair of thoracic aortic pathologies requiring repair of the aortic arch proximal to the origin of innominate artery.
The primary objective of this study is to examine the safety and effectiveness of physician-modified endovascular grafts (PMEGs) for endovascular repair of complex aortic pathology in high-risk patients. The study is divided into three study arms based on the subject's aortic pathology: (1) Complex abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA); (2) Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm; and (3) Aortic dissection.
This study is the First in Man Study of WeFlow-JAAA Stent Graft System manufactured by EndoNom Medtech(Hangzhou) Co., Ltd.
A First in man study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of thoracoabdominal aortic stent system for endovascular treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms.
The objective of this project is to define whether nutritional supplement (oral administration with alpha-ketoglutarate) capable of filling-up the citric acid cycle (anaplerotic therapy) can improve outcomes in patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm of 39-49 mm in diameter on ultrasound imaging. Alpha-ketoglutarate is commonly used as a nutritional supplement specially by athletes to increase muscle strength. They can be mixed with formula or other foods. Subjects will be followed for up to 5 years.
The main purpose of this study is to determine if PET-imaging can be used to evaluate inflammation level of intracranial aneurysms, thus helping to evaluate the rupture risk of intracranial aneurysm.
