Pre-operative Screening of Functional Fragilities Before Open Aortic Surgery: a New Area (Frail Aorta)

January 8, 2024 updated by: Aurélien Hostalrich, University Paul Sabatier of Toulouse

Pre-operative Screening of Functional Fragilities Before Open Aortic Surgery : a New Area

Aneurysmal or occlusive abdominal aortic pathology has seen its prevalence increase over the years despite the various cardiovascular risk factor management campaigns deployed.

Currently, a large proportion of these aortic pathologies require effective and definitive treatment by open surgery. In fact, minimally invasive endovascular treatment, which can provide good results in certain cases, cannot be generalized simply and can even lead to sometimes incomplete treatments requiring even more complex secondary open surgery.

The preoperative assessment before open aortic surgery is relatively well coded with cardiological and respiratory assessments in particular. However, the literature has so far never focused on the overall vision of the patient with a complete functional assessment which would make it possible to consider a specific preoperative fragility scale and would thus give practitioners corrective targets before such an intervention. in order to simplify the patient's post-operative journey by limiting complications.

The investigators therefore propose to collect a certain number of elements already collected in standard care in a systematic and prospective manner in order to create a risk scale. All of these elements being modifiable, they should ultimately make patients more robust for such an intervention.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

  • Aortic aneurysm >55mm
  • Aortic occlusion responsible for severe claudication of the lower limbs or critical ischemia

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Open aortic surgery
Patient undergoing open surgery for abdominal aortic aneurysm or abdominal aortic occlusion
Procedure: Screening of preoperative frailty

The day before the surgery, a multimodal evaluation is performed regarding :

Cognitive assessment: Mini mental State evaluation (MMSE) test Physical functional assessment: Chair raising Addiction assessment: Fagerstrom Assessment of the social environment: environmental assessment Nutritional assessment: Grip test Quality of life: completion of SF 36 scale and QOR15 scale

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Post operative mortality
Time Frame: day 30 post operative
Rate of death after surgery
day 30 post operative
Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)
Time Frame: day 30 post operative
Rate of nonfatal stroke, nonfatal myocardial infarction and cardiovascular death
day 30 post operative
Length of stay
Time Frame: day 30 post operative
Evaluation of the length of stay in days of the patients
day 30 post operative
Home discharged
Time Frame: day 30 post operative
Rate of patient who need a rehabilitation center after surgery
day 30 post operative

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Respiratory complications
Time Frame: day 30 post operative
Rate of pneumopathy and need of reintubation or intubation longer than 24h
day 30 post operative
Quality of life : 36-item Short-Form Health Survey
Time Frame: day 30, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year
Evaluation of post-operative quality of life compared to pre-operative data with 36-item Short-Form Health Survey

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure.
