The Effect of Surgery on Central Aortic Pressure & haEmodynamics Study

NCT02493296 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 146

Last updated 2020-01-30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The present study will investigate the effect of artificially stiffening the aorta by means of an aortic stent on central aortic haemodynamics (CAH). This study will determine whether aortic stenting inadvertently adversely impacts on CAH, thereby providing the rational for subsequent therapeutic intervention to reduce the associated cardiovascular risk.

Conditions

  • Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
  • Pulse Wave Analysis
  • Risk

Interventions

OTHER

This observational study will not entail an intervention.

This study will entail measurement of central aortic haemodynamics before and after (clinically indicated) abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
