An observational study in Aortic Aneurysm and Dissection, sponsored by First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University. Not yet recruiting at 1 site in China. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-08-11.
Sponsored by First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University · Observational
The incidence and severity of post-procedural discomfort were evaluated in patients undergoing endovascular repair for aortic disease across six symptom-related dimensions: immobilization-related issues, puncture site discomfort, adhesive-induced skin reactions, post-stent implantation syndrome, impairment in self-care ability, and physical/psychological stress responses.
In this study, a customized postoperative discomfort symptom assessment questionnaire was developed based on patient-reported outcomes, aiming to systematically evaluate common discomfort symptoms experienced by patients with aortic disease after endovascular intervention. The questionnaire covers six core dimensions: immobilization-related discomfort, puncture site-related discomfort, adhesive-related skin reactions, post-stent implantation syndrome, decline in self-care ability, and psychosomatic stress responses. Each symptom within these dimensions was scored on a 0-4 scale according to severity: 0 indicates no symptoms; 1 indicates mild symptoms that are tolerable; 2 indicates moderate symptoms that affect daily life but are still tolerable; 3 indicates severe symptoms requiring medical intervention; and 4 indicates extremely severe symptoms that are intolerable and require emergency treatment.
Pain was evaluated using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Skin reactions such as lesions, blisters, bruises, erythema, and rashes were quantified by measuring the longest and widest parts of the lesion using a flexible measuring tape. Self-care ability was assessed using the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale combined with patient self-evaluation

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.
Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.

Patients with aortic disease who received endovascular treatment
The incidence of postoperative discomfort symptoms
Based on six dimensions-immobilization-related, puncture site-related, adhesive-related skin reactions, aortic disease-related symptoms, self-care ability, and psychosomatic stress-patients were assessed at 6, 24, and 48 hours postoperatively using a structured questionnaire. The primary objective was to assess the incidence of postoperative complications and the severity of pain.
Time frame: 6, 24, and 48 hours postoperatively
Plan to share: Yes
