New clamp technique may improve survival in aortic tear surgery
NCT ID NCT07150559
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new surgical method called arch-clamping under mild hypothermia for people with a life-threatening tear in the aorta (acute type A aortic dissection). The trial will enroll 306 adults across 7 hospitals in China, comparing the new technique to standard approaches. The goal is to see if it reduces major complications like death, stroke, kidney failure, and paralysis, while also shortening time on a heart-lung machine and in the ICU.
