Summary

This study follows 125 adults undergoing open surgery for complex abdominal aortic aneurysms to see how their quality of life changes over a year. Participants fill out a health survey at five points: before surgery, at discharge, and at 1, 6, and 12 months after. The goal is to provide real-world data to help patients and surgeons make informed choices.

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 and patients make better decisions about surgery by understanding how it affects daily life.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly improve outcomes. Results may not apply to all patients.

Who can take part

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

Who is studied

Participants will be enrolled by the Department of Vascular Surgery in three different centres. Patients will be included if there is a diagnosis of complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (cAAAs), defined as juxtarenal, pararenal and suprarenal/paravisceral aneurysms. The study includes five time points for data collection: 1. Preoperative baseline (prior to surgery) 2. At hospital discharge (within 7 days after surgery) 3. 1 month postoperatively 4. 6 months postoperatively 5. 12 months postoperatively At each of these time points, participants will complete the Short Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey questionnaire to assess HRQOL, including physical and mental well-being.
