Brief Summary:
The aim of the cohort study SCAN Screening Cardiovascular patients for Aortic aNeurysms is to establish a screening programm for patients with a high risk for an AAA Aortic aneurysms in these patients should be identified at an early stage and thereby AAA-associated mortality be decreased
Detailed Description:
A recently published meta-analysis showed a higher prevalence of aortic aneurysm AAA in men requiring treatment of coronary heart disaese compared to standard population In women however the prevalence was not increased Thus the SCAN project addresses male patients who underwent coronary artery intervention in order to screen them for the presence of an AAA using duplex sonography
The SCAN project involves the following elements
1 Informing the patient with cardiovascular risk factors about the clinical picture of AAA
2 An ultrasound scan of the abdominal aorta in patients with an increased risk for AAA
3 Acquisition of patient data followed by a correlation analysis for the parameters presence of AAA and cardiovascular diseases
The cohort study is part of the SCAN project which is also conducted in an similar way by Catharina Ziekenhuis Eindhoven ClinicalTrialsgov IdentifierNCT01643317
