Filter by:Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is the most deadly kind of stroke. Each year, 40,000 Americans have SAH. Case-fatality approaches 60% and more than half of those who die do so before reaching the hospital. Most commonly, SAH results from rupture of an intracranial aneurysm. Screening high-risk individuals could identify those at greatest risk and decrease the devastating effect of SAH. Aortic Aneurysm also constitutes a major public health problem with high lethality. Current estimates are that ruptured aortic aneurysm kills 13,000 Americans each year. Screening efforts have effectively lowered mortality from aortic aneurysm rupture but a high proportion of those who die did not have a diagnosis of aortic aneurysm prior to rupture. The relationship between intracranial and aortic aneurysm has long been recognized, but poorly quantified. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) provide a molecular biological evidence for a shared pathophysiology. The chromosome 9p21 locus confers increased risk for both intracranial aneurysms and aortic aneurysms. These GWAS data, along with linkage data for other susceptibility loci, indicate that individuals and families harboring one type of aneurysm may be at especially increased risk of the other. The rationale for this project is that opportunistic screening for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) may be warranted in patients who present with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. This study is meant to see if the yield of screening in this population is too low to justify its routine use. The investigators plan to systematically screen for AAA in all cases of aSAH presenting to MCH for treatment. If no individual out of 81 consecutively screened cases of aSAH has evidence of AAA, then the investigators can have strong confidence that there is a less than 5% chance of finding an AAA in the patient population.
This is an observational Registry designed to obtain early data on the use of the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis with C3 Delivery System.
Study of the prevalence of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) (> 3 cm) in patients with echocardiography (transthoracic or) during a specific day, with cardiologists in France. This is a cross-sectional epidemiological investigation, assembling evidence from a routine ultrasound screening for AAA at the waning of echocardiograms performed during a specific day. The study will be offered a list of centers selected by the Scientific Committee in the complete list of locations being in France, the subsidiary of echocardiography Echocardiography of French Society of Cardiology. These centers will be 500 in number representative of the French centers, geographically and by type of centers.
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the long term safety and effectiveness of the Endurant Stent Graft System for the endovascular treatment of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms in a post-approval environment, through the endpoints established in this protocol. The clinical objective of the study is to evaluate the long term safety and effectiveness of the Endurant Stent Graft System assessed at 5 years through freedom from Aneurysm-Related Mortality (ARM).
This is a prospective observational post-market study of subjects receiving the Ovation™ or Ovation Prime™ Abdominal Stent Graft System ("Ovation™ or Ovation Prime™ Abdominal Stent Graft System Post-Market Study") in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). The Ovation™ or Ovation Prime™ Abdominal Stent Graft System Post-Market study is intended to expand the clinical knowledge base by collecting data on subjects treated with the Ovation™ or Ovation Prime™ Abdominal Stent Graft System in actual clinical practice following commercial approval.
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.
The aim of this study is to prospectively compare the perioperative mortality severe morbidity and the costs of endovascular versus conventional surgical repair of type 1, 2 and 3 thoracal abdominal aortic aneurysms.
This is an investigation of the efficacy and safety of CRD007 compared to placebo in the treatment of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm.
AIDA Study is a prospective, multicentre, randomized, controlled clinical investigation with patients undergoing median laparotomy for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) repair. The primary objective of the clinical investigation is to test the hypothesis that insertion of an Optilene® Mesh Elastic mesh - a monofilament, light-weight, large pore sized, polypropylene mesh manufactured by Aesculap AG - is superior to suturing alone and will reduce the hernia formation rate within the first 2 years. A reduction from 30% to 10% of the patient population is assumed.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the Endologix Fenestrated Stent Graft System for the endovascular repair of juxtarenal or pararenal aortic aneurysms.
