Saline Flush to Reduce the Amount of Residual Air Inside a Stentgraft Delivery System

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Stroke; Aortic Aneurysm; Aortic Arch Aneurysm; Aortic Aneurysm, Thoracic; Aortic Diseases

• Registration Number: NCT04909190
• Lead Sponsor: Semmelweis University Heart and Vascular Center

Brief Summary

Non-randomized studies have shown that de-airing of the delivery system with an increased volume of saline may be associated to a decrease in periprocedural stroke during thoracic endovascular aortic repair. This study is designed to provide evidence that 4xIFU-dose volume of saline flush vs. standard IFU-dose saline flush is associated to a decrease in the amount of intra-sac air detected on the first follow-up imaging after EVAR.
