Brief summary

The Zenith® Dissection Clinical Trial is a clinical trial approved by US FDA to study the safety and effectiveness of the Zenith® Dissection Endovascular System in the treatment of acute, complicate Type B aortic dissection.

Interventions

Instead of making a large incision in the chest, the physician makes a small incision near each hip to insert, and guides the study device(s) into place in the aorta.

Primary safety : Major adverse events include: myocardial infarction, chronic renal insufficiency/chronic renal failure requiring dialysis, bowel ischemia, stroke, paraplegia or paraparesis, and prolonged ventilator support

Time frame: 30 days

Population: In accordance with a revised data analysis plan approved under the IDE , 6 patients were excluded from the hypothesis testing due to meeting certain medical exclusion criteria (i.e., patients who were ASA class V or who were without confirmed absence of bowel necrosis at the time of enrollment).Additional information/reference why no analysis was performed for 6 patients is listed in the CIP in section 7.1
