Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •1\. Both males and females, over the age of 50 years
- •2\. Clinical suspicion of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm after review in Accident and Emergency (or other hospital unit)
Exclusion Criteria
- •1\. Patients with known connective tissue disorders (e.g., Marfan syndrome) where endovascular repair may not be beneficial
- •2\. Patients with known previous repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm, because procedures either open or endovascular are likely to be very complex and there are no guidelines for anatomical restriction to repair
- •3\. Deeply unconscious and moribund patients since the chances of recovery are minimal
