Summary

This study is designed to evaluate the effects of glucocorticoid(GC) on improving post-operative organ dysfunction in patients with acute type A aortic dissection(aTAAD). Subjects with confirmed diagnosis of aTAAD undergoing surgical treatment will be enrolled and 1:1 randomly assigned to receive either glucocorticoids or normal treatment. All patients in the glucocorticoids group will be given methylprednisolone intravenously for 3 days after enrollment. The primary endpoint will be the amplitude of variation of Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score on post-operative day 4 compared to baseline.
