Post Market Clinical Follow-Up for ED Coil / Electro-detach Generator v4
AneurysmArteriovenous Malformations1 moreThis is a multicenter post-marketing clinical follow-up study to collect safety and performance data in a prospective cohort of patients who will have undergone coil embolization using the ED Coil and ED Detach Generator v4.
A Prospective Analysis on the Expansion Rates of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Abdominal Aortic AneurysmAbdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) disease is an abnormal bulging of the main abdominal artery, which is the called the abdominal aorta. The purpose of this observational study is to identify whether a blood biomarker protein RhoA can predict which small AAA patients may need surgery in the future. Participating patients will receive an ultrasound and blood draw. The patients will be divided into expanding and stable aorta groups after determining each patient's aortic expansion rate. The blood RhoA levels and aortic expansion rates between both groups would then be compared to look for any relationships.
Impact of Acute Cerebral Diseases on the Autonomous Nervous System: Progression and Correlation...
Pupillary FunctionAbnormal1 moreThe pupilometer determines the alteration of the pupil diameter after a defined light stimulus. In this study data is collected from pupilometer measurements of patients with an acute cerebral disease. The measurements take place during daily neurological routine examinations. The values are compared to outcomes resulting from pupilometer measurements done on patients having not an acute cerebral disease (e.g. cerebral aneurysm without symptoms). The study aims to establish the not invasive method of pupillometry for detecting neurological degradations early.

Subarachnoid HemorrhageSub Arachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) is a public health concern because of its high incidence (7/100 000 inhab.), its mortality rate (25%), and its morbidity rate (50%).
Clinical Study for Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Total Endovascular Aortic Arch Repair
Aortic DissectionAortic Arch Aneurysm2 moreAortic disease is a kind of cardiovascular diseases with very high mortality rate and high risk of surgical treatment. At present, the surgical and endovascular treatment for diseases in the ascending aorta, descending aorta and abdominal aorta are becoming more and more mature. However, due to the complexity of the aortic arch in anatomy, function and pathological changes, the optimal treatment strategy for diseases in the aortic arch has been controversial constantly. This research is a multi-center(four centers), prospective, controlled, large-scale (about 400 subjects) clinical study, using traditional thoracic surgery of aortic arch disease as a control to verify that new techniques for endovascular treatment is not inferior to traditional thoracic surgery in terms of efficiency and safety. Further more, the investigators plan to explore the indications of the application of these new techniques, develop a better diagnosis and treatment program, reduce the risk of such surgical treatment and the incidence of complications, improve clinical efficacy and the overall quality of the disease.
Non-invasive Monitoring of Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (VBA)

Intracranial AneurysmsThe Chinese Cerebral Aneurysms Survey is a continuing prospective study to evaluate the effectiveness of unenhanced, three-dimensional time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (3D-TOF-MRA) with volume rendering (VR) at 3-T in the detection of intracranial aneurysms.
Keller Prehospital Ultrasound Study
UltrasonographyMultiple Trauma6 moreThe study is based on the premise that ultrasound is not commonly used in an ambulance. There are some departments that do deploy it into the field, but of those departments there is almost no data collected about its use. Currently Paramedics are not recognized by insurance companies as health care providers capable of performing ultrasound. If there were more data on the subject that may eventually change. We are hoping to prove that not only is ultrasound useful in an ambulance, but that paramedics are good at interpreting the results. We will save images, the paramedic's diagnosis and some basic information about the call. We will not save any protected health information (PHI) or any information linking the subject to the study. The data collected will be sent to a non-biased ultrasound reviewer to grade the images for the accuracy of diagnosis and the quality of the view obtained. This data will be used to formulate a report and statistics on paramedic's ability to perform ultrasound in the field.
Safety and Clinical Effectiveness of Pipeline™ Shield Devices for Intracranial Aneurysms
Intracranial AneurysmCerebral Aneurysm6 moreThis observational, retrospective, single-arm, multi-centre cohort study will use real-world data (RWD) to develop real-world evidence (RWE) of the safety and clinical effectiveness of the Pipeline™ Flex Embolization Device with Shield Technology™ in Australian patients that have received a flow diversion device to treat an intracranial aneurysm (IA). The medical records from 500 procedures completed at Gold Coast University Hospital in Queensland (QLD), Prince of Wales Hospital in New South Wales (NSW), and Sir Charles Gardiner Hospital in Western Australia (WA), will be analysed. The study will report the risk and likelihood of stroke (ischaemic and haemorrhagic), delayed neurological adverse events and incomplete aneurysm occlusion within sub-groups of the patient cohort and determine the predictive or confounding factors that influence clinical outcomes under pragmatic or 'real-world' conditions.
