Summary

This study watches how blood clotting changes in 58 people after complex surgery to repair a thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysm. Researchers will check for complications like kidney injury, heart problems, and clotting issues before and after surgery. The goal is to better understand these risks, not to test a new treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors better predict and manage bleeding or clotting problems after complex aortic surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks at patterns, so it won't directly improve care or outcomes.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

All patients will be treated by the same medical team in UHL according to the European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) guidelines. Preoperatively patients will be treated with aspirin 100 mg once daily for at least 5 days. Postoperatively in the absence of bleeding patients will receive aspirin 100 mg and in the absence of neurological dysfunction due to spine ischemia they will receive clopidogrel 150 mg and from the next day dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin 100 mg and clopidogrel 75 mg). If the patient was treated with anticoagulant agents this will be discontinued preoperative according to ACCP guidelines and it will be restarted on the 1st or 2nd postoperative day based on hemostasis. In this case patients will be treated with aspirin 100 mg once daily five days preoperatively and aspirin will also be continued postoperatively.
