“…Defining suitability for EVAR is a complex issue and is dependent on both manufacturer guidelines as well as individual clinician judgement. Numerous studies have shown varying degrees of suitability for EVAR, ranging from 25% to 75%; [118][119][120][121][122][123][124] however, most studies struggle when trying to collect data for a reliable consecutive series of patients with AAA. Suitability for EVAR at the proximal end of the device is predominantly dependent on having an adequately long aortic neck between the top of the aneurysm and the bottom of the lowest renal artery as well as a neck that is no more than approximately 2-3 cm in diameter, depending on which graft manufacturer is selected.…”

HTA on DVD is currently free of charge worldwide.The website also provides information about the HTA programme and lists the membership of the various committees. HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeThe Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HTA programme is needs led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of projects...

“…Anatomic factors that influence suitability for EVAR include adequacy of vascular access for device introduction; aneurysm morphology; neck length and morphology; and iliac artery involvement (42)(43)(44)(45). Various series have suggested that there is considerable variability as to what percentage of patients will qualify for EVAR, depending on the criteria that are used to determine suitability (45,46).…”

“…To assure optimal success with EVAR, each endoluminal device lists strict morphological criteria in its usage instructions. Using these guidelines, the suitability for EVAR has been reported to range from as low as 20% to as high as 60%, depending on anatomical criteria or device availability [11,12]. Endograft use outside of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved instructions for use has been associated with increased complication rates [13][14][15].…”
