Active clinical trials for "Aneurysm"

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has lower short-term morbidity and mortality than open surgery. Intra-arterial contrast agents are an important component of successful EVAR as the tool of choice for preoperative evaluation of aortic aneurysm morphology as well as precise sizing and intraoperative visualization of the ostia of the renal and hypogastric arteries for graft replacement. Although iodinated contrast (IC) is overwhelmingly the most common contrast agent, the perioperative use of IC agents is not recommended in patients with renal dysfunction or allergies to IC The aim of this study was to evaluate feasibility, efficacy and safety of carbon dioxide (CO2) digital subtraction angiography (DSA) to guide endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in a cohort of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm

A trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Tubridge flow-diverter stent for the treatment of intracranial wide-necked, small to medium-sized aneurysms.

To establish the preliminary safety and effectiveness of the SEAL™ Endovascular Aneurysm Lattice System for the treatment of saccular intracranial aneurysms. The data from this study will be used to support: EU CE Mark labelling US FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) approval support of PMA approval.

Intracranial aneurysm (IA) is a cerebrovascular disorder in which the weakness of a cerebral artery wall causes a localized dilation of the blood vessel. Intracranial aneurysm can develop and rupture, and about 85% of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) cases are caused by the rupture of Intracerebral aneurysm. Two treatments are available globally: microsurgical clipping and endovascular treatment. Endovascular treatment of Intracerebral aneurysms using detachable platinum coils ( was introduced in 1990 by Guido Guglielmi, an Italian neurosurgeon ) of different shapes and sizes are deposited into the aneurysm through a microcatheter, which reduces the blood flow and induces thrombus formation . Wide neck aneurysm defined by neck diameter greater than 4 mm or dome-to-neck ratio less than 2 Despite advances in endovascular techniques , the treatment of wide-necked aneurysms remains problematic . Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms is associated with lower morbidity and mortality rates and faster recovery compared with traditional microsurgical clipping. In wide-necked Intracerebral aneurysms, complete coil embolization is often technically difficult owing to the risks of distal coil migration or coil impingement on the parent vessel . Complete coil embolization using a single microcatheter without a supporting device in cases of wide-necked Intracerebral aneurysm is technically difficult. Total occlusion rates have increased recently as a result of the advancement of supporting devices These may include balloon remodeling, use of three-dimensional (3D) coils (Russian Doll Technique), combined use of stents and coils (Stent assisted coiling), flow diverters, use of intrasaccular flow disruption (like WEB), Double catheter Technique or combined extra- and intrasaccular devices.

The goal of this clinical trial is to confirm the feasibility and safety of performing radiosurgery on unruptured, low-risk aneurysms in humans. Participants will choose if they want to undergo radiosurgery or not. Participants who choose not to have radiosurgery will be assigned to the observational group. Participants who choose to have radiosurgery performed will be assigned to the radiosurgery group. Participants in both groups will attend an initial exam session as well as four follow-up sessions: Day 0 Initial questionnaire CTA scan MRI Radiosurgery performed on patients in the radiosurgery group 6 months CTA scan Follow-up questionnaire 12 months CTA scan MRI Follow-up questionnaire 24 months CTA scan Follow-up questionnaire 36 months CTA scan MRI Follow-up questionnaire Researchers will compare the observational group and the radiosurgery group to see if there is a difference in the incidence of aneurysm rupture during the study period (3 years). The hypothesis is that radiosurgery should not increase the risk of aneurysm rupture.

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.

The objective of this study is to generate contemporaneous clinical data to facilitate a reasonable comparison of the performance of the FRED™ X™ device with the performance of the FRED™ device. The data generated from this study will be compared to the safety and effectiveness of the FRED™ device by meeting the same performance goals (PGs) established for the FRED™ pivotal study.

The purpose of this trial is to generate clinical evidence related to key performance outcomes of Endurant II/IIs Stent Graft Systems verses Gore Excluder / Excluder Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis in subjects with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms. Subjects are randomized and imaging collected at all follow-up time points to assess the primary endpoint.

The purpose of this study is to collect information on the Cook Zenith t-Branch endovascular stent-graft system for the treatment of aortic aneurysms.
