Filter by:The aim of this study was toinvestigate the effect of BPB on outcome of upper extremity arteries in patients undergoing interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms via TRA. A multicenter prospective clinical trial was designed. The study subjects were patients undergoing cerebral aneurysm embolization with TRA. BPB was given in the BPB group patients and no BPB in the control group.The incidence of radial artery spasm (RAS) diagnosed by intraoperative angiography and the occurrence of the unfavorable RA for repeated trans-radial interventions (TRI) diagnosed by vascular ultrasound 1 month after surgery, perioperative changes of blood flow parameters in upper limb vessels,postoperative inflammatory factors and complications were observed in the two groups.
An MRI study to examine the relationship between blood pressure and cerebral blood flow in patients with subarachnoidal hemorrhage and suspect or verified vasospasm.
To determine the safety and effectiveness of IMPEDE-FX RapidFill to increase the percentage of subjects with shrinkage of the abdominal aortic aneurysm sac when used as an adjunct to on-label endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) stent graft treatment in trial subjects considered candidates for elective EVAR.
The goal of the prospective observational study is to evaluate the immunological background of inflammatory response often seen after open thoracic aortic surgery. Patients scheduled for this type of procedure will undergo a series of blood testing (preoperatively, and several times postoperatively). The blood samples will be used for a wide scale of immunological tests to better evaluate potential differential markers against infection. A control group will include patients with active infective endocarditis (preoperatively). The main question is if there is a biomarker able to determine a difference between sterile systemic inflammation and infection after thoracic aortic surgery. The second question is if there is a difference in dynamics of evaluated biomarkers between sterile postoperative inflammation and active endocarditis.
The primary goal of the trial is to investigate whether the experimental arms (receiving the P2Y12 inhibitor Ticagrelor) compared with the control arm (taking dual antiplatelet therapy) could reduce bleeding complications in patients with intracranial aneurysms undergoing Stent-Assisted Coiling.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the role of the whole exome sequencing (WES) application in patients with giant coronary artery ectasia (CAE) with a high-risk of genetic background. The main question it aims to answer are: - the assessment of role of WES in CAE - the detection of novel pathogenic mutations associated with CAE development
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to treat patients with small to mid-sized abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), maximum diameter of 3.5 cm to 5.0 cm, using a locally delivered, single-dose endovascular treatment. The main question the study aims to answer is to demonstrate efficacy of the product for stabilization of these small to mid-sized AAA.The study will compare the treatment group to the typical standard of care for these patients, surveillance. All subjects will be followed at designated intervals at 30/60 days, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months with continued follow-up annually for up to 5 years.
There are no endoluminal stent systems available on the Chinese market for the effective treatment of aortic arch lesions (involving aortic arch aneurysms, aortic coarctation, aortic pseudoaneurysms, aortic ulcers, and intermural hematomas), and therefore this study is intended to be a prospective, single-arm study.
Managing abdominal aortic aneurysms currently relies on diameter assessment with ultrasound. Diameter reproducibility with two-dimensional ultrasound is challenging, and requires experienced operators. A novel automatic three-dimensional ultrasound system has the potential to facilitate more precise diameter measurements than two-dimensional ultrasound. This study aimed to assess the variance of abdominal aortic aneurysm diameter measurements among ultrasound novices and experts by comparing two-dimensional ultrasound with the three-dimensional ultrasound system in a clinical setting. Ten patients under abdominal aortic aneurysm surveillance were examined by 29 ultrasound-operators: 13 experts and 16 novices. The experts were sonographers and physicians highly experienced in abdominal aortic aneurysm ultrasound, and the novices were medical students and junior residents with sparse ultrasound experience.
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a pathological dilatation of the aorta in the belly which can rupture leading to bleeding within the belly. To prevent rupture elective surgery can be performed. Endovascular repair (EVAR) is a surgical intervention whereby a stent is inserted into the AAA to prevent it from further growth and rupture. Standard AAA management has several drawbacks. To start: maximum AAA diameter is used to determine upon timing of elective repair but is imprecise in predicting the risk of rupture resulting in an unmet clinical need. Secondly, EVAR outcome and complication occurrence remain unpredictable due to poor prediction ability of computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound (US) utilised in the follow-up protocol. Lastly, patients and physicians are being repeatedly exposed to cumulative radiation toxicity. All these drawbacks could be solved by trading the standard imaging modalities by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Within the MARVY, advanced MRI techniques are used to find out if standard imaging techniques could be replaced by MRI in three phases of the AAA management (surveillance, surgery planning and post-operative follow-up). The two most important MRI techniques that will be used are 4D flow MRI and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI which give respectively information about the blood flow within the AAA and perfusion of the aortic wall.
