Watching small abdominal aortic aneurysms in Chinese patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysms (a bulge in the main blood vessel in the belly) to see how they change over time. It may help doctors decide when treatment is needed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the main artery in your belly) that is between 39 and 49 mm wide.
- You are of Han Chinese ethnicity.
- You are 50 years old or older.
- You do not have a mental illness that would affect your ability to participate.
- You are willing to join the study, sign a consent form, and attend follow-up visits.

This trial tests a new device (Nectero EAST) for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms without major surgery. It may be an option for people with a medium-size aneurysm who have not had prior repair.
This research uses a special imaging scan (PET/CT) to take detailed pictures of inflammation in the aorta (the main blood vessel from your heart). Researchers want to understand why some people develop bulges in their aorta called aneurysms. If you have an aneurysm or are a healthy volunteer, this study may help improve how doctors detect and treat this condition.
This study uses a hand/eye pressure test (tonometry) and an ultrasound scan (duplex ultrasound) to see if they can predict future heart or blood vessel events in people with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) who are planning elective surgery. It may help doctors choose the safest follow-up and treatments for you after repair.
This study looks at how your heartbeat and breathing affect the shape of an abdominal aortic aneurysm before and after treatment with a special stent. It may help doctors plan better treatments for people with this condition.
This study is testing a new approach to manage abdominal aortic aneurysms (bulges in the main belly artery). It is for people whose aneurysm is larger than 30 mm but does not have certain rare features that require different care.
This study uses a special PET scan to look for signs of inflammation in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). It may help doctors understand which aneurysms are at risk of growing or rupturing.
