CoSeal for Hemostasis of Aortic Anastamoses

NCT01653769 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 150

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Surgery on the aorta can be associated with significant blood loss. Most commonly this is due to bleeding at the site of aortic anastomosis. Surgical bleeding is associated with significant morbidity.

One way to prevent bleeding is to use a special glue (sealant) after performing large connections on the aorta. The goal of this study is to compare the different methods surgeons use to stop/prevent bleeding.

The study team will collect medical information about patients before, during, and after surgery on their aortas, including the methods used to prevent bleeding. This information may help doctors improve the way that they care for these patients.
