What this trial studies

This observational study aims to gather clinical data on the safety and performance of the NEXUS Aortic Arch Stent Graft System and the Custom-Made NEXUS DUO™ Aortic Arch Stent Graft System in patients with aortic aneurysms. Participants will be treated according to standard care protocols, and the study will monitor early mortality, safety outcomes, device failures, and hospitalization details over a follow-up period of up to five years. The goal is to assess how well these devices function in real-world clinical settings.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve treatment options and outcomes for patients with aortic aneurysms.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies evaluating similar aortic stent graft systems have shown promising results, indicating potential for success in this approach.
