Brief Summary
In the spirit of improving patient safety and quality of healthcare in our region, the Dallas-Fort Worth Hospital Council Education and Research Foundation (Foundation) and Baylor Research Institute sought and obtained federal funding support (AHRQ grant) to develop an Abdominal Aortic Aneurism (AAA) surgery registry in North Texas. Participating centers will directly benefit from this project and will have access to a de-identified version of the registry data through their collaboration. These data may be used for quality improvement initiatives and/or to conduct your own research. In summary, this effort represents a substantial investment (with no costs to facilities) in improving outcomes for patients with AAA.

Interventions
an innovative, less invasive procedure used to treat problems affecting the blood vessels, such as an aneurysm, which is a swelling or "ballooning" of the blood vessel. The surgery involves making a small incision near each hip to access the blood vessels.
