Blood clot risk after aortic stent surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how often blood clots form inside the stent used to repair the aorta (the main artery from the heart) and why they happen. It may help doctors prevent and treat these clots in future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have had a CT scan before and after your surgery
- You have not had this type of aortic stent surgery before

This study uses computer models and artificial intelligence to better understand how aortic stent grafts (TEVAR) work in patients. Researchers will analyze your medical imaging to create a digital copy of your aorta, which may help doctors predict long-term success and improve future patient care.
This study looks at patients who had a TAVR procedure (a new valve put in the heart) to understand their risk of bleeding or clots over the next year. It tracks changes in blood thinner medications at 1 month, 90 days, and 1 year to help doctors personalize care.
This study looks at how blood flow patterns inside a heart stent may lead to dangerous clots. If you had a stent placed with a special camera (OCT) and later developed a clot in that stent, this trial may help understand why.
This study tests whether a stent procedure (TEVAR) can improve blood flow and healing in people with a serious aortic tear (type B dissection). It may be an option if you have complications or high-risk features from the dissection.
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 trial compares two different stent procedures (TEVAR vs FABULOUS) for people with a serious tear in the main artery (aortic dissection). It aims to see which method works better when the artery's inner channel is very narrow or when organs aren't getting enough blood.
