Active clinical trials for "Aneurysm"

The study is aimed at investigating whether repair of endoleak type II can be improved by adding navigation technology. Can this technology increase precision by guiding the needle that punctures through the skin as used during the repair procedure? Can the procedure logistics be improved by using navigation technology instead of computed tomography (CT) guidance of the needle puncture? Parameters logged during the procedure: was the needle placement successful? number of needle punctures? time used on guidance procedure X-ray exposure dose

The Department of Vascular Surgery at Catharina Hospital Eindhoven, The Netherlands initiates the Endurant for Challenging Anatomy: Global Experience (EAGLE) Registry. The aim of this study is to collect clinical information on the performance of the Endurant Stent Graft System for endovascular repair in anatomically challenging aneurysms, and to critically assess whether the current guidelines for anatomic eligibility to endovascular treatment with this system are still applicable. This study aims at creating a database that can be pooled/ compared with the ENGAGE database. This study aims at answering two major questions: Is the technical success rate of successful delivery and deployment of the Endurant (II) similar in anatomically challenging aneurysm? Is the successful treatment rate comparable in anatomically challenging aneurysms, or does treatment of these aneurysms lead to more complications and reinterventions?

Authors hypothesize that aortic root reimplantation procedure is superior over standard aortic valve reimplantation procedure in the incidence of aortic valve replacement.

HYBRID study is prospective randomized open label controlled multi center trial, to compare Hydrocoil and bare platinum coil for recanalization after endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms.

This is an observational Registry designed to obtain early data on the use of the GORE® EXCLUDER® AAA Endoprosthesis with C3 Delivery System.

A prospective study conducted in Japan to collect confirmatory peri-operative and 30-day information on use of the Zenith LP AAA Graft.

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of in situ fibrinolysis on the mortality at 30 days in case of subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Preconditioning in patients treated for elective abdominal aneurysm showed that the rate of perioperative myocardial infarction could be reduced by 80 %(ARR from 27% to 5%). Precondition where performed by 10 minutes of clamping of each iliac arteries before clamping the abdominal aorta. Human studies in cardiac patients have shown promising results with precondition. Instead of clamping arteries they have all performed the procedure by inflating a blood pressure cuff above arterial pressure on a arm. The investigators want to investigate if preconditioning induced by a blood pressure cuff on a arm can reduce the perioperative rate of myocardial infarction in patients open operated for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm.

The purpose of this prospective registry is to determine if patients harboring intracranial aneurysms have any predictive markers between aneurysm wall tissue, cerebrospinal fluid and blood plasma.

The purpose of this study is to determine if high-dose PUFA supplementation in patients undergoing EVAR for infra-renal AAA reduces the peri-operative inflammation.
