Blood clots after aortic surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at what causes blood clots to form inside the aorta after certain types of aortic surgery (called FET and TEVAR). It will help doctors understand why some patients get these clots and how they affect recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You need to have CT scans taken before and after your surgery.
- You have not had a prior TEVAR (a stent placed in the aorta) or FET (a type of aortic surgery) procedure.

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 people who have a blood clot that keeps coming back or won't go away after having a device implanted to close a part of the heart called the left atrial appendage. The goal is to learn more about these clots and how to manage them better.
This trial studies which treatment is best for people with a recent, “uncomplicated” type B aortic dissection (a tear in the aorta). It may help doctors choose safer care for patients whose dissection has not yet caused major complications.
This study follows patients who are having surgery to remove a blood clot in an artery or vein and where a specific clot-removal catheter (the LeMaitre TufTex Single Lumen) is used. It aims to confirm how well the device works and monitor safety outcomes.
This trial tests different blood-thinning medicines after a mitral valve repair procedure (TEER) in people who do not need long-term blood thinners. It aims to find the safest and most effective strategy to prevent blood clots.
