Studying blood movement in abdominal aortic aneurysms
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is looking at how your heartbeat and breathing affect blood flow in an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It uses a special type of stent graft called Treo. The goal is to learn more so doctors can better treat AAAs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a bulge in your aorta (an abdominal aortic aneurysm) that is not causing symptoms.
- You are older than 65.
- Your doctor has decided you need treatment for your AAA.
- Your blood vessels are shaped so a Treo stent graft can be placed during a procedure.
- You have at least one kidney artery (renal artery) that can be stented, plus one other artery in your abdomen (renal or mesenteric) that can also be stented.
- You are able to hold your breath for 10 seconds.

This study looks at blood and/or scan markers to better understand abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). It may help doctors predict risks and guide follow-up or treatment choices.
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 uses special imaging to better measure how the aorta wall behaves in people with an enlarged aorta (an aneurysm) and in some people without an aneurysm. Results may help doctors understand aneurysm risk and plan care more precisely.
This study looks at the tissue “structure and strength” in people with a bulging (aneurysm) in the upper part of the aorta, either before symptoms or during emergency surgery. Your tissue samples help researchers understand why these aneurysms happen and how they may behave over time.
This trial collects follow-up data from patients who received special branched stent grafts (tube-like devices) to treat complex aortic aneurysms (weakened areas of the main blood vessel). The study helps confirm these devices work safely over time.
This study tests a special stent graft (a fabric tube placed inside the artery) that has openings (fenestrations) to fit around other blood vessels. It is for people with an abdominal aortic aneurysm who need a custom-fit repair to keep blood flow normal.
