Filter by:The objective of the GELATIN registry is to prospectively evaluate intracranial aneurysm occlusion and retreatment rates as well as adverse event rates in patients undergoing balloon-assisted coiling using the MicroVention Scepter Occlusion Balloon Catheter and second-generation MicroVention hydrogel coils for treatment of previously treated or untreated ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms.
Vasospasm occurs frequently after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and can lead to strokes. The investigators will investigate if infusion of a novel drug, clevidipine, will decrease vasospasm during the infusion and post infusion period using transcranial doppler monitoring of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and moderate severity vasospasm
The purpose of the DIVERT study is to provide a prudent, controlled clinical context for the use of flow diversion, a promising option of yet unproven benefit, in the care of patients with acute blood blister-like and dissecting intradural aneurysms. Hence DIVERT is a simple, multicenter, randomized trial integrated into daily practice. DIVERT addresses the clinical dilemma of whether the use of PED FD truly is a safe and effective alternative to best standard treatment, defined as conventional methods of treatment or in some cases, observation. Selection criteria are few, to facilitate the recruitment of most affected patients confronted with these difficult aneurysms that their physician judges suitable for PED FD. The trial does not obstruct clinical care, does not include extra tests or risks beyond what is necessary and proven beneficial. Endpoints are simple, clinical, meaningful, valuable and resistant to bias. Follow-up visits and tests are "routine', imposing no extra burden on clinical transactions. Data is collected in simple case-report forms filled by physicians.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the eCLIPs™ Family of Products for the treatment of unruptured intracranial bifurcation aneurysms in conjunction with embolization coils.
The primary objective of this registry is to assess the safety and angiographic outcomes of endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms using the DeltaMaxx Microcoil System.
This study aims to determine if hormone replacement therapy, given during perimenopause may prevent the progression of saccular cerebral aneurysms.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and performance of the Penumbra Liberty Stent System as adjunctive treatment to embolic coils for wide-neck, saccular, intracranial aneurysms.
2. Purpose of the Study - 1. To determine the feasibility of Clevidipine use for rapidly achieving and maintaining individually specified patient BP target ranges in the pre and postoperative periods of aortic aneurysm and dissection management. 2. To determine the safety of Clevidipine use in the pre and postoperative periods of aneurysm and dissection management 3. Background & Significance - Surgical treatments for persons with aortic root/arch dissection or aneurysm have significantly improved survival. However, critical in management of these patients is precise control of blood pressure (BP). With increasing BP, both acute and chronic, the risk of fatal and nonfatal vascular complications is imminent. Similarly, with excessive lowering of arterial pressures, cerebral, spinal cord, cardiac, and renal ischemic hypoperfusion is also noteworthy. Typically, the target systolic blood pressure range for these patients is 100-120 mmHg. Several different classes of vasoactive agents are in current use to acutely manage BP but none possess the optimal profile of an ideal vasodilator. Notable limitations include inadequate potency, slow onset and offset of action, multiple receptor function, safety concerns and, importantly, restricted/ineffective titration, which results in clinically significant hemodynamic and cardiovascular perturbations. Recently, the ultra short-acting intravenous dihydropyridine calcium-channel blocker clevidipine (Cleviprex, The Medicines Company) was approved for management of BP in critical care settings. Clevidipine's pharmacology lends itself to acute management of BP in a broad critical care setting in both surgical and nonsurgical patients. In the current study, the investigators propose to further characterize the hemodynamic effect of CLV in the pre and post-operative management of BP in patients with aortic aneurysm/dissection. 4. Design & Procedures Eligible patients will be approached to participate in the study by the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) attending and/or by a cardiothoracic surgical/anesthesiology fellow or a cardiac research nurse. All aspects of clinical management and monitoring will be according to standard practice that includes: - ECG - Oxymetry - Temperature - Invasive arterial blood pressure - Recording of routine laboratory results - Imaging studies including CT/MRI (A)/ Echocardiography - Pulmonary artery catheter (postoperative patients) - Mechanical ventilation (postoperative patients) - According to established protocol for acute intravenous management of arterial blood pressure in these patients, an upper and lower threshold of systolic blood pressure will be prescribed by the attending physician (the range being (100 mmHg -120 mm Hg SBP). Hemodynamic data will be collected continuously via a bedside laptop as well as pertinent clinical data and information about efficacy and safety will be recorded. • Subjective evaluation of efficacy of CLV (questionnaire format to be completed by the critical care team)
This is a prospective multicenter observational study with 20 patients to evaluate the performance of SCITECH stent for treatment of AAA. Will be enrolled the patient demographics, laboratory tests, medical history, clinical evaluation, physical examination, adverse events. The benefits and risks of the study should be explained before any specific test or procedure of the study. The written consent must be obtained from the patient. No action specifies the study should be performed while the patient has not signed the form of consent.
ThoraflexTM is designed for the treatment of aneurysm or penetrating ulcer of the descending thoracic aorta. Each system is advanced from a transfemoral or transiliac approach over a 0.035" guidewire and positioned under fluoroscopic control. If necessary, an arterial conduit technique may be required to allow access to the arterial system. The soft tapered tip allows atraumatic insertion into the vessel, while the catheter and sheath are designed to provide excellent flexibility and control through tortuous arterial anatomy. Each individual stent graft device is supplied sterile and pre-loaded in a single-use delivery system. The stent graft is a self-expanding endoprosthesis constructed of a thin wall woven polyester and nitinol ring stents, which are attached to the fabric with braided polyester sutures. The delivery system central catheter is a stainless steel braided co-extrusion of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polyester elastomer, designed to provide significant torque control and strength, while also maintaining superior flexibility. The outer sheath is made in a tri-layer construction consisting of a PTFE liner, a stainless steel flat braid layer and a polyester elastomer outer jacket with a hydrophilic lubricant coating. These materials provide very low friction force during device insertion and deployment together with enhanced flexibility of the delivery system. The handle components are moulded from thermoplastic polyurethane. The materials of the endoprosthesis are identical to those of the current Conformité Européenne (CE) marked Vascutek Ltd. AnacondaTM Stent Graft System intended for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. The materials of the delivery system are well established in medical applications. The design of ThoraflexTM is based on the same principles as other clinically established thoracic endovascular devices. The endoprosthesis is constructed of self-expanding nitinol stents and a polyester tube graft. Four proximal hooks anchor the endoprosthesis within the aorta. Unlike existing thoracic endovascular devices, the delivery system of ThoraflexTM allows repositioning of the endoprosthesis so that the optimal deployment position can be enhanced. The intended use of ThoraflexTM is the treatment of aneurysm or penetrating ulcer of the descending thoracic aorta, which is identical to other CE approved thoracic endovascular devices.
