Digital Models to Improve Aortic Stent Graft Outcomes
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You had a TEVAR procedure (a stent graft placed in your aorta) for a tear, aneurysm, ulcer, blood clot, bleeding, or injury
- You have a good-quality CT scan from before your TEVAR procedure
- Your CT scan was taken with thin slices (1mm or thinner) and is clear without major artifacts or interference from other implants
- Your TEVAR was placed in your native (original) aorta, not a surgical graft that replaced it

This study uses your detailed CT scan to create a personalized computer plan for placing a stent inside your enlarged aorta (an abdominal aortic aneurysm). It may help doctors choose the best stent approach for your anatomy during endovascular repair.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to better analyze CT scans of the aorta, the large artery that carries blood from your heart. If your CT scan shows the aorta is partly cut off or missing in the images, the AI will help measure the parts that are fully visible.
This trial tests a custom-made aortic stent graft created with 3D printing technology for people with certain types of abdominal or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. It aims to see if this new device is safe and works well to repair the aneurysm.
This trial tests a special stent graft to repair a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the main artery in your chest and belly). It is for people whose aneurysm is too risky to treat with open surgery and who cannot use standard endovascular grafts.
This trial tests a custom-made stent graft to repair complex aortic aneurysms that are hard to treat with standard surgery. It may help people who are at high risk for open surgery due to age, health, or past abdominal surgeries.
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.
