Filter by:Prospecrtive study including 20-30 randomized patients treated by open repair because of an TAAA larger than 55 mm During the surgery, a heart lung machine is applied for distal perfusion during aortic cross clamping to enable distal organ perfusion. Regardless an intensive inflammatory reaction is a well known effect after reperfusion, leading to a uncontrolled inflammation during th first days after surgery. This may be associated to bad outcome and decreased survival rates. By the application of a intraoperative cytokine and DAMP filter this negative ffect could be reduced, resulting in a better outcome after surgery.
This study is the first in man study of WeFlow-Arch Module Embedded Aorta Arch Stent Graft System
This study is a multi-center, single arm, open label, retrospective and prospective clinical data collection of CascadeTM, Non-Occlusive Remodeling Net, in adults with intracranial aneurysms, demonstrating the effectiveness and safety of the CascadeTM in providing temporary assistance for coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms. All consecutive eligible patients from all participating sites will be included in this clinical data collection. The relevant data of the coil embolization procedure will be collected via an eCRF system. Peri procedural data on the coil embolization procedure as well as discharge, 30 days and at 3-6 months status will be collected.
This study aims to determine the relationship between the cross-sectional aortic area/patient height ratio (indexed aortic area) and absolute aortic diameter in proximal thoracic aortic aneurysms associated with a bicuspid valve. This will shed light on whether aneurysms with smaller diameters than those recommended for surgical intervention by guidelines are still at risk of aortic complications attending an abnormally high indexed aortic area.
Fenestrated stents are used for the management of complex juxta-renal, para-renal or thoracoabdominal aneurysms in patients with high surgical risk and/or contraindicated for open surgery. These endovascular techniques have demonstrated their safety and efficacy, however, long-term follow-up CT scans remain essential for the detection of complications such as endo-leaks and restenosis/thrombosis of visceral and renal stents. The respiratory cycle might induce changes in the geometry and deformations of visceral and renal stents after complex aortic procedures. These could be detected by an adapted CT scan analysis by deep inhalation and deep exhalation acquisition carried out pre-operatively and post-operatively for monitoring of these same stents and screening for complications.
The study aims to perform Endovascular Aortic Repair procedures with CO2-Angiography using a standardized an operative Protocol
The aim of the study is to test the effectiveness and safety of the use of lidocaine infusion in multimodal analgesic management. A group of patients undergoing vascular surgery performed with the classic technique on the aorta - with the opening of the abdominal cavity will be enrolled. The population of patients qualified for this type of vascular surgery is usually burdened with multiple diseases, mainly risk factors or cardiovascular diseases, which, combined with hemodynamic fluctuations, large fluid shifts (including bleeding) and stress for the body, affects the risk of serious cardiological complications, which in this group exceeds 5% and is the highest, according to the ESC / ESA (European Society of Cardiology / European Society of Anesthesiology) classification from 2014. Proper postoperative pain control is therefore becoming one of the key pillars of postoperative care in this group of patients. Due to the numerous disease burden of patients and the operational specifics, the use of multimodal therapy in the management of pain is of particular importance, as the use of high doses of opioids improves hemodynamic stability, but at the same time affects the occurrence of side effects - mainly excessive sedation, respiratory disorders, hypoventilation and, consequently, for hypoxia of the heart muscle. The risk of myocardial injury in non-cardiac surgery (MINS) is significant in the light of the available literature. Lidocaine used in intravenous infusion is one of the recommended components of multidirectional analgesia. Its adjuvant properties make it possible to reduce the amount of opioid drugs used, and thus - to reduce the frequency of their side effects. The high effectiveness of such a procedure has been proven in numerous experimental and epidemiological studies. Due to the low frequency of side effects associated with its use, the therapy has a strong recommendation for use in relieving perioperative pain. The analysis of the literature on the subject shows that there is little data assessing effectiveness of lidocaine infusion in relation to the group of patients after surgery on the abdominal aorta.
Biomarkers can play a vital role in prognosing the perioperative complications in thoracic aorta surgery. The goal of a study is to determine the correlation between intraoperative level of certain biomarkers and total amount of peroperative complications.
Introduction: Complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (CAA) are defined as abdominal aneurysms that are anatomically unsuitable for a standard endovascular repair because of a short infrarenal neck or no infrarenal neck. These CAAA are usually treated either by fenestrated endovascular aortic repair (FEVAR) or open repair (OR). Data comparing these thechniques remain scarce, mainly consisting of systematic reviews based on retrospective studies. Although mid-term and long-term results remain uncertain, FEVAR has gained widespread acceptance in the vascular community. However, this practice is not evidence base. Beyond clinical results, whether FEVAR is cost-effective or not is not demonstrated. A randomized controlled trial comparing FEVAR and OR is unlikely to be conducted since centers have developed specific expertise and practice, and most of surgeons are not keen to randomize patients. Thus, we believe that a prospective comparative multicentric cohort, with a propensity score and minimization of selection, classification and confusion bias is the most realistic way to provide reliable comparative data on cost effectiveness of FEVAR and OR. Overall, 382 patients are expected to be included (159 in each group). Objective: The objective of this prospective non-randomized comparative multicenter cohort study is to compare the cost effectiveness incremental ratio at 36 months of FEVAR and OR for CAAA. Method: Patients with CAAA discussed for FEVAR or OR in 37 french vascular centers in during a two years inclusion period constitute the population study. Preoperative and postoperative clinical and imaging data will are collected prospectively in eCRF forms. QOL before and after treatment is assessed by the E5D5L. The follow-up period is three years. The primary outcome is the Incremental cost-utility ratio (cost/QALY) at 36 months. We plan to minimize indication biases by using a proposensity score (proposnsity score maching and Inverse probablility of treatment weighting) based on clinical and anatomic characteristics. Patient at prohibitive risk for OR are excluded. Patient anatomically unsuitable for FEVAR are also excluded . Conclusion: This study should provided valuable data on cost effectiveness of FEVAR for CAAA. Sub-goup analysis will be also conducted.
The study aims to investigate the applicability of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in the endovascular therapy of juxta-, supra- and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. The focus of the study is on the intraoperative and postoperative evaluation of the geometric data of bridging stentgrafts in terms of patency, occurrence of stenosis and/or kinking.
