Active clinical trials for "Aneurysm"

This trial is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm confirmatory clinical trial. The study is to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the WEB Aneurysm Embolization System demonstrated in the US WEB-IT Study for the treatment of intracranial wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms. The study's primary endpoints include a primary effectiveness endpoint and a primary safety endpoint. The study device must meet both endpoints. The primary effectiveness endpoint is adjudicated by an independent third party core lab.

The Cook Iliac Branch Graft Post-market Registry will obtain case reports of physician experience with a CE-marked Cook Iliac Branch Graft to further confirm device safety and performance.

The purpose of this trial is to assess whether the new endovascular repair technique of the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is an adequate substitute of the conventional AAA repair.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the TALENT endoluminal stent-graft system in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. The TALENT endoluminal stent-graft system is a flexible, implantable endoluminal vascular device preloaded in a placement system that is used to exclude abdominal aortic aneurysms.

This study was designed to identify whether there is a measurable reduction in inflammation in walls of intracranial aneurysms with oral atorvastatin.

Give an effective treatment for intracranial wide necked aneurysm and can detect the best method could be used. Improve the outcome of these patients and decease rate of recurrence and complications.

Fenestrated endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (FEVAR) is a procedure to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms which are not amenable to conventional repair or stenting. A stent is placed in the aorta and confines blood flow to a normal diameter lumen to remove pressure on the diseased aortic wall. Fenestrations (custom holes in the graft) are necessary to maintain blood flow to abdominal organs when the aneurysm sac extends to far proximally. These fenestrations are then typically aligned with their respective vessels using covered stents. These stents also help keep the arteries open. Unfortunately some of the stents currently used occlude either immediately or over time, which can lead to organ failure, morbidity and death. A recent advancement in stent design has heparin bonded to the stent surface which prevents clot from forming. This new design has been shown to help maintain stent patency in other parts of the body. The investigators believe it may do the same for FEVAR patients. The proposed study is a 20-patient pilot to assess the safety of substituting a heparin bonded stent graft for FEVAR branches over a period of one year. Patients who are deemed eligible for FEVAR by a UHN multidisciplinary vascular conference will be recruited to the study. All the branches in their FEVAR will use the Viabahn BX stent in place of the current standard of care stent. They will then be followed per the standard of care for one year. Adverse events will be recorded and the rate of occlusion will be assessed based on CT imaging. The investigators hypothesize that using heparin bonded stent grafts is safe and they will have a low rate of occlusion.

In the stage of randomized controlled study, our purpose is to obtain the Intraoperative anticoagulation program supported by evidence-based medicine.

This study aims to determine whether advanced MRI sequences can provide robust and clinically relevant information about abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). The MRI sequences will study outcomes related to blood flow inside AAA, microvasculature of the AAA vessel wall and intraluminal thrombus inside AAA. Robustness of these MRI sequences will be determined with testing of feasibility and reproducibility. Clinical relevance will be assessed by studying the association between the primary outcomes and disease severity. Disease severity will be expressed by AAA diameter. It is our hypothesis that these parameters are significantly related to disease severity and may therefore be future markers of disease progression.

Complex aortic aneurysms involving major branches have been difficult endovascularly. The primary purposes of this study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of multiple overlapping uncovered stents in treating aortic aneurysm while preserving major visceral branches, including the celiac artery (CA), superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and renal artery (RA).
