About this trial
To assess the safety and effectiveness of the ASG device in the treatment of de novo Type A aortic dissections.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
De novo Type A aortic dissection (≤30 days from symptom onset to index endovascular procedure) compatible with the treatment requirements of the ASG device.
Primarily intended to be treated by placement of the ASG device in the ascending aorta. Distal adjunctive procedures not in contact with the ASG device may be performed during the index endovascular procedure at the discretion of the Investigator.
