Detailed Study Protocol Parameters |
Study Objectives |
The 98-03 study was a multi-center (19 sites), nonrandomized, prospective, concurrent controlled trial, which compared standard open surgical repair (n=99) to endovascular treatment with the EXCLUDER (n=235). The 99-04 study was designed to compare the modified EXCLUDER device to surgical controls with respect to safety and to the original EXCLUDER device with respect to effectiveness. One hundred and ninety three (193) subjects were enrolled between April 2000 and April 2001. Eighty eight (88) additional subjects were enrolled in the continued access protocol
|
Study Population |
Subjects implanted with the Gore EXCLUDER device.The EXCLUDER Bifurcated Endoprosthesis is intended to exclude the aneurysm from the blood circulation in patients diagnosed with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms disease and who have appropriate anatomy inluding: 1) adequate iliac/femoral access, 2) infrarenal aortic neck treatment diameter range of 19-26 inm and a minimum aortic neck length of 15 nim, 3) proximal aortic neck angulation greater than or equal to 60 degrees, and 4) Iliac artery treatment diameter range of 8-13.5 mm and iliac distal vessel seal zone length of at least 10 mm
