Aorta repair study: heart and vessel changes after stent procedure

This study looks at how the heart and large arteries change after endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the main artery in your belly). It may help doctors understand if the repair improves heart function and vessel stiffness over time.

This study looks at how people’s quality of life changes after a planned minimally invasive procedure to repair the aorta using EVAR, FEVAR, or BEVAR. It may help doctors better understand what recovery and day-to-day wellbeing are like for patients after this kind of treatment.

This study tests a new way to guide a complex aortic surgery (fenestrated endovascular repair) using less or no radiation. It may help people with aneurysms who need repair involving the arteries that supply the liver, gut and kidneys.

This trial looks at how the ascending aorta (the main artery near the heart) changes over time after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. It may help doctors predict who is at risk of aorta enlargement after this less-invasive valve procedure.

This study follows patients who had a stent placed in their chest or belly aorta through the leg artery to see what discomfort or symptoms they may have over time. It helps doctors better understand how patients feel after this common procedure.

This study looks at how a stent graft treatment for an abdominal aortic aneurysm affects kidney function over time. It may help doctors choose the safest approach for people whose aneurysm is treated with a procedure called EVAR.
