AortaEd

Around 1,100 people in the UK are diagnosed with a type B aortic dissection each year. Most are treated with medication and monitored regularly, rather than undergoing surgery straight away. The @NIHRresearch funded @EarnestTrial is now re-examining whether this approach is still the best option. @imperialcollege tadct.org/EARNEST

We would be so grateful if aortic surgeons throughout the UK could share their experience of the impact of lung cancer screening on their aortic screening programmes form.typeform.com/to/guxCUswH?ty…

📍Live from @CXSymposium Fantastic to see Professor Bicknell present the EARNEST trial — there was great energy in the room and strong support for this much-needed RCT in Uncomplicated Type B Aortic Dissection. @NIHRresearch 👏 #ClinicalTrials #AorticDissection #VascularSurgery

The UK’s first major study into treatment options for uncomplicated type B aortic dissection is now live! We’re proud that our Patient & Public Panel helped shape the EARNEST trial, keeping the voices of those affected at the core of this vital research. aorticdissectioncharitabletrust.org/earnest-trial/
