View clinical trials related to Aortic Aneurysm.
Filter by:COIN trial is a a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter clinical study. Approximately 230 patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) will be randomly allocated to low-dose colchicine group or placebo group. All study patients will be followed up in the outpatient clinic every 3 months and undergo CTA scans after 24 months from randomization. The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that low dose colchicine can inhibit the progression of AAA diameter. The secondary objective is to test the hypothesis that low dose colchicine can inhibit the progression of AAA volume, reduce the incidence of clinical outcomes associated with AAA, reduce the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality.
Observational, prospective, cohort study to evaluate, by an opportunistic screening program based on vascular ultrasound, the prevalence and characteristics of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) and Popliteal Artery Aneurysm (PAA) in a female population as well as the prevalence and characteristics of PAA in male population.
Introduction: Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is a major inconvenience in the use of iodinated contrast media (ICM) and it is associated with a significant increase in morbimortality and cost of hospitalization. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a non-invasive and cost-effective tissular protection technique that has proven beneficial in decreasing renal insult in patients receiving intravascular contrast. Aim: The primary outcome of this study is to evaluate the impact of RIPC on the incidence of CIN in patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair.Material and Methods: Patients suffering from aortic aneurysm were recruited prior to the administration of iodinated contrast media. Randomization was used to assign patients into the control/RIPC groups. Biochemical parameters determined renal function before and after surgery in immediate (24-72 hours) and at 30 days' follow-up.
The overall aim is to determine the frequency by which women and men with intact abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are treated with elective surgery at three vascular outpatient clinics in Europe, and to investigate whether the reasons to refrain from elective surgery differ between the sexes.
The physician modified endograft is intended for treating complex, pararenal, juxtarenal and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms requiring coverage of renal arteries, the superior mesenteric artery or the celiac trunk in high-risk patients who do not have an option for endovascular repair with an FDA approved endograft and have an appropriate anatomy. There will be one investigational site with a total of 40 subjects to be enrolled. Time to complete enrollment will be 24 months and the subject follow-up time will be five years from last subject enrollment. The primary safety endpoint is freedom from major adverse events (MAE) at 30 days or during hospitalization if this exceeds 30 days. The primary effectiveness endpoint is the proportion of study subjects with treatment success at one year. The subjects will be followed at one month, six months, one year, and yearly thereafter for a total period of five years. Subjects will be followed up clinically for life. Clinical exam follow up may be phone or video visit with CT scan evaluation and duplex ultrasound as needed. The proportion of treatment group subjects that achieve and maintain treatment success annually to five years will be investigated.
This is a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients submitted to elective EVAR, between February/2009 and May/2019 in a single institution. Symptomatic or ruptured AAA, mycotic aneurysms, isolated iliac aneurysms and complex abdominal aortic repairs were excluded. The primary outcomes were freedom from secondary intervention and compliance with follow-up, defined as surveillance imaging performed within a periodicity no longer than 18 months.
The ENDOBARC-S post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to evaluate the prevention of death related to aortic arch pathologies when treated by branch stent graft systems (Nexus stent-graft system®, Relay Branch® or Zenith arch branch graft®), with proximal landing at zone 0. The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety and clinical performance of the studied devices.
Automated carbon dioxide (CO2) angiography is considered a safe diagnostic alternative to standard iodinated contrast medium (ICM) for endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), especially in patients with preoperative renal function impairment. Recent literature experiences describe the use of automated CO2 angiography in EVAR. One of the main issues of CO2 angiography is the inability to detect the origin of the lowest renal artery (proximal neck visualization) that was estimated up to 38%. In these experiences, the CO2 automated angiography is usually performed by a 5F pigtail catheter placed at renal arteries level. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a new automated CO2 injection technique by a 5F introducer (single hole catheter) positioned at the distal level of the proximal neck in detecting both renal arteries in the first diagnostic and completion angiographies.
The treatment of aortic aneurysms is today based on different indicators (diameters, lengths, angles, volumes of the arteries) measured on CT scan images. Several indicators are time consuming and complicatated to measure. They demand training and practice. Nurea is developing a software for automatic measurement of these indicators, PRAEVAorta® 2, to facilitate and assist the physician in his clinical routine. The purpose of this study is to compare the analysis realised by the software PRAEVAorta® 2 with the analysis realised by the healthcare professional on retrospective CT scan images. Contrasted and non-contrasted, pre-operation or post-operation CT scans from 50 patients will be analysed. The main objectif is to validate the accuracy of the software by demonstrating its adequacy to the standard method of analysis. The second objectives are the following: - Evaluate the security of the software PRAEVAorta® 2 - Evaluate the unanticipated risks related to the use of the software - Validate the accessory PRAEVAorta® Web We make the following assumption : 90% of the patients show 90% of adequacy to the healthcare professional analysis
A prospective observational cohort study to assess the eligibility, uptake, viability, acceptability, safety, and cost of a ShorT stay (23-hour) Aneurysm Repair (STAR) pathway. Outcomes will be collected for up to 1 year.
