Introduction:
Studies in healthy volunteers have demonstrated that peroneal nerve stimulation augments blood flow. The studies described within this thesis aimed to establish whether use of the geko™ neuromuscular stimulation device was effective a...

© 2015 BMJ Open. Introduction: Chronic thoracic aortic aneurysm (CTAA) affecting the arch or descending aorta is an indolent but life-threatening condition with a rising prevalence as the UK population ages. Treatment may be in the form of open surgi... Read More about The ETTAA study protocol: A UK-wide observational study of 'Effective treatments for thoracic aortic aneurysm'.

The effect of aortic morphology on peri-operative mortality of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (2015)
Journal Article
IMPROVE Trial Investigators. (2015). The effect of aortic morphology on peri-operative mortality of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. European Heart Journal, 36(21), 1328-1334. https://doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/ehu521

Aims To investigate whether aneurysm shape and extent, which indicate whether a patient with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) is eligible for endovascular repair (EVAR), influence the outcome of both EVAR and open surgical repair. Methods an... Read More about The effect of aortic morphology on peri-operative mortality of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm.
