VEITH Symposium Debate: Implantable AAA Pressure Sensors (Cardiomems) And Their Value In Detecting Which AAAS Remain Excluded Long-Term

The use of remote pressure sensors can eliminate the risks associated with cross-sectional imaging, while still ensuring appropriate exclusion after the residual aneurysm sac after endovascular aortic repair (EVAR). The issue in one of the many heated debates at the VEITHsymposum, was the value of pressure sensing in detecting which abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are excluded long-term.
