Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Primary effectiveness endpoint as measured by device technical success and absence of reintervention. The primary effectiveness endpoint is a composite of the following events through one month post procedure: Device Technical Success and Absence of Reintervention.
Technical Success is defined as including:
Successful access and delivery to the intended implantation site, and retrieval of the device delivery system, and;
Accurate placement of the device at the intended implantation site, and
Patency of the graft in absence of clinically significant device deformations (e.g., kinking, stent eversion, mal-deployment, misaligned deployment), and
Absence of reintervention is defined as: The absence of unanticipated additional procedures related to the device, procedure, or withdrawal of the delivery system
30 Days

The primary safety endpoint is a composite of the following events through 30 days post endovascular procedure:
Aortic rupture
Lesion-related mortality
