Filter by:The team hypothesizes that fully automatic analysis of AAA could provide increased performance (decreased duration of segmentation with increased reproducibility and decreased inter and intraobserver variability) to detect aortic aneurysmal sac enlargement (volumes and diameters) and predict the risk of complications during the procedure and during follow-up (MAE, MACE, MALE, Stroke) compared to standard methods of measurement relying on approximate maximum sac diameter.
This study will evaluate the impact of complex thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysm repair in coagulation during the immediate postoperative period in patients undergoing omplex thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
The number of AAA-surgeries performed per capita is 3-4 times higher in Innlandet county, as compared to Oslo. The last three years the annual incidence of AAA requiring treatment has been 21.5 / 100 000 inhabitants in Innlandet, as compared to 6.6 / 100 000 in Oslo. The indication for surgery is the same in both regions. In Oslo, a screening program was established in 2011, reporting a prevalence of AAA of 2.6 %, but in Innlandet county all AAA are either symptomatic or incidental findings and the prevalence is unknown. The aetiology of the major difference in AAA prevalence between these two regions has not been previously explored.
Elective Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) repair is offered when the risk of rupture exceeds the risk of surgery. Women (versus men) have a four-fold higher risk of AAA rupture but almost double the operative mortality. It is unknown whether the current 5.5cm diameter AAA repair threshold, derived from randomised trials including only 4% women, is applicable to women. Therefore, should women have their aneurysms repaired electively at smaller diameters than men to improve their AAA-related survival and quality of life? WARRIORS is an international randomised controlled trial of early elective endovascular repair versus routine surveillance in women (n=1112) with small asymptomatic AAA (4-5.4cm diameter), nested within a registry of non-participants. The surveillance group will be offered repair for rupture or upon reaching the 5.5cm threshold. Randomisation will be 1:1 stratified by country, age, and aneurysm diameter. The trial is powered for aneurysm-related mortality or rupture at 5 years. Quality-Adjusted-Life-Years is a major secondary outcome. Other outcomes include: operative mortality and complications, anxiety, major cardiovascular adverse events, and cost-effectiveness. Quality-of-life and anxiety questionnaires and "standard-of-care" using routine data will be collected. The trial aims to progress health equity through provision of evidence for sex-specific clinical guidelines for AAA repair.
Complex endovascular aortic repair in inflammatory and infective perivisceral abdominal aortic aneurysms and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (CEVARII) study is a collaborative international effort among vascular surgeons to establish a database on the global experience in the management of INAAs and IAAs. Ethical approval for the study was obtained from the Colorado Multiple Institutional Review Board (COMIRB) under protocol number 23-1533.
It is currently unclear what activities aneurysms are involved in at the time of rupture. The aim of the study is to determine the activity performed at the time of aneurysm rupture.
The adverse effects of overnight fasting before surgery have been well-documented in the contemporary literature. Still, due to the possibility of pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents, many clinicians worldwide still employ this practice. On the other hand, the benefits of preoperative oral carbohydrate loading (OCHL) have been shown in various patient groups. Studies examining the usefulness of preoperative OCHL in aortic surgery are lacking. In particular, no randomized control trials have specifically examined the impact of preoperative OCHL on the postoperative course in patients undergoing open abdominal aortic surgery.
Shockwave TEVAR is a nonrandomized, prospective, international, multi-center, PMCF, obervational study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of the Shockwave™ Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy Balloon (Shockwave Medical Inc.) in the routine treatment of hostile iliac accesses during TEVAR and F/BEVAR.
This is a multicentric voluntary observational study with a retrospective evaluation of prospectively collected data concerning the treatment of visceral aneurysms with flow diversion stent Derivo Peripher and Derivo 2 (DED, Acandis GmbH) Follow-up will include clinical and radiological (CT) evaluation at least 12 months after the intervention. The enrollment period will be of 54 months (01/01/2020-30/06/2024). Minimum sample size will be of 50 Patients.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will determine the clinical efficacy and safety of Lymphoblock in the prevention of postoperative retroperitoneal chylo-/lymphorrhoea in patients with open surgical treatment of the thoracoabdominal aorta. It is planned to recruit 138 clinical observations. Efficacy will be evaluated based on clinical and laboratory data.
