Popis: | PurposeTo ascertain the nature of the pressure wave transmitted through aneurysm thrombus and the changes produced after endovascular repair and the development of type I and II endoleaks.MethodsA 25mm Talent endovascular graft was deployed in a latex model of an abdominal aortic aneurysm, which was incorporated in a pulsatile flow unit. The graft was surrounded by thrombus analogue to simulate conditions in vivo. Pressure waveforms in the sac were captured over 5s at 1000Hz in these settings: (i) no endoleaks (baseline), after introduction of (ii) type I (iii) type II and (iv) combined type I and II endoleaks. The arterial blood pressure settings used were 140/100 and 130/90mmHg, denoted the high and low settings, respectively. ANOVA in Minitab 13 was applied for statistical analysis.ResultsPulsatile waveforms were transmitted through the thrombus. Intrasac pressure after stent-grafting reduced to 110/107, 99/96mmHg (p |
