Stent treatment of thoracic aortic pathologies, including aneurysms, pseudo-aneurysms, dissections, intramural hematomas, penetrating ulcers and ruptures of the isthmus, seems to provide a likely benefit compared to surgery in terms of surgical mortality and severe morbidity. However, the data concerning the long-term fate of these stents are insufficient. For this reason, the French National Health Authority (HAS) requests a 5-year follow-up in relation to the renewal of insurance reimbursement for these stent-grafts. Therefore, this long-term observational study has been set up.
This is a prospective multicenter international single-arm observational study to demonstrate that use of stent-assisted coiling with LVIS™ Evo™ and HydroCoil® Embolic System (HES) in intracranial aneurysm treatment is effective and safe when assessed at 1 year after the procedure
The NEOS-APAC post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to demonstrate the safety and clinical performance of E-vita OPEN NEO in the treatment of aneurysm or dissection in the ascending aorta, aortic arch and descending thoracic aorta.
This is a pilot study to be performed at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and the University of Massachusetts to determine the feasibility and develop the processes for a future randomized controlled trial to evaluate the occurrence of spinal cord ischemia after endovascular thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair using prophylactic cerebrospinal fluid drains versus no pre-emptive drain. The research question to be addressed is as follows: In the setting of a comprehensive spinal cord ischemia prevention protocol, do prophylactic CSF drains decrease the rate of spinal cord ischemia (SCI) in patients undergoing endovascular thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair?
the aim of this study is to determine whether an intraoperative optimization protocol using the enhanced flow-based hemodynamic parameters of the FloTrac/Vigileo device in combination with intraoperative measurement of the sublingual microcirculation with the Cytocam-IDF device would result in an improvement in outcome in high-risk patients undergoing major vascular surgery, measured by the hospital LOS in comparison with intraoperative FloTrac/Vigileo monitoring alone. The FloTrac/Vigileo device only needs standard arterial access for enhanced, flow-based hemodynamic monitoring. It is reported to be easy to use and easy to set up and calculates the stroke volume (SV) on the basis of the arterial waveform in combination with demographic data. Cardiac index (CI), stroke volume index (SVI) as an indicator for fluid status and stroke volume variation (SVV) as an indicator for fluid responsiveness during mechanical ventilation and sinus rhythm will be continuously measured during major vascular procedures, including carotid endarterectomy (CEA), open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair , endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) and fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (FEVAR).
Previous work has demonstrated patients presenting with ruptured aneurysms that develop radiographic and clinical vasospasm have a higher permeability of the blood brain membrane. Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) has been studied and recently implicated in both the pathogenesis of the blood brain barrier breakdown and vasogenic edema of ischemia strokes, and is suggested to be an accurate biomarker to predict the onset of cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage. The therapeutic benefit of minocycline, an MMP9 inhibitor, has been investigated in ischemic stroke population, however its role in the treatment of cerebral vasospasm from ruptured aneurysms remains unknown. Our project has two main goals: to further confirm MMP9 has a reliable biomarker for the onset of cerebral vasospasm, and secondarily to investigate any possible therapeutic benefit that minocycline has in the vasospasm population. Vasospasm continues to be one of the major contributors of morbidity and mortality in the ruptured aneurysm population, and close monitoring of the neurologic exam during the 'vasospasm window' usually requires two weeks in the intensive care unit in most academic settings. As such, if we are better able to predict which patients are at risk of developing vasospasm based on MMP9 levels, we will be better able to anticipate the need for intervention and therefore mitigate the risk of vasospasm induced ischemic strokes, ultimately resulting in better outcomes in the ruptured aneurysm population. Further, if we are able to identify minocycline as a therapeutic agent to deter, or lessen the severity of vasospasm, we can possibly improve neurologic outcomes, decrease hospital stays, ultimately providing an improved and more cost-effective treatment strategy to our patients.
