NCT03718312

Brief Summary

Patients having a planned open surgery of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms and enrolled in the study will be randomized the day of the surgery in 2 groups:

  • Arm 1 : Patients with aortic clamping with pre-conditioning
  • Arm 2 : Patients with aortic clamping without pre-conditioning Patients will be then followed, during 60 days after surgery.

Study Arms (2)

Arm 1

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with aortic clamping withpre-conditioning

Procedure: clamping with pre-conditioning (PCl)

Arm 2

NO INTERVENTION

Interventions

PCI procedure: clamping of the supracellular thoracic aorta for 5 minutes followed by a 5-minutes de-clamping period. PCI procedure is repeated twice.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patient \> 18 and \<85 years old
  • Patient having a planned surgery for a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm by direct approach,
  • Patient with aortic aneurysm requiring supra-visceral aortic clamping and visceral artery reconstruction,
  • Aortic aneurysmal patient with or without distal femoral circulatory assistance,
  • Patient with aortic aneurysm of atheromatous or dissecting etiology,

  • Patient requiring emergency aortic surgery
  • Patient under treatment known as interfering with PCI (Nicorandil or oral antidiabetic agents),
  • Pregnant or lactating woman (negative result of baseline blood test)
  • Participation in another interventional study within 28 days before randomization or during this study
  • Person deprived of liberty by an administrative or judicial decision or person subject to a legal measure for the protection of adults,
