Quality control study for type B aortic dissection treatment
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is collecting data on patients with type B aortic dissection who undergo a minimally invasive procedure called TEVAR. The goal is to improve quality and outcomes for future patients. If you had this procedure, you might be eligible to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with a type B aortic dissection, confirmed by a special CT scan.
- You have already had or are scheduled to have a minimally invasive procedure called TEVAR to repair the dissection.
- You agree to have follow-up visits for 2 years after the procedure.
- You have not had any prior surgery on your aorta (the main artery).
- You do not have severe health problems that would make it hard to participate.

This study tests a minimally invasive procedure called TEVAR to repair a type B aortic dissection (a tear in the wall of the main artery from your heart). It may help prevent further damage and improve recovery.
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 trial tests combining a standard stent graft with longer bare-metal stents to treat a type of aortic dissection within two weeks of symptoms starting. It aims to see if the combination is safe and works better than current options.
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 trial tests a special stent graft for people with a type B aortic dissection that needs a new blood flow path to the left subclavian artery. The device is placed in the aortic arch to repair the tear and keep blood flowing normally.
This trial tests a new stent system to help repair the aorta after initial surgery for type A aortic dissection. It may help promote better healing of the remaining damaged section.
