Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms Simple Treatment or Prevention

Our Goal

 logo

The goal of this study is to determine whether an exercise program reduces the rate of AAA enlargement and to gather information on AAA risk factors.

Aneurysms are generally treated with surgery.  One of the main purposes of this study is to test the efficacy of exercise as a non-surgical treatment of small AAA.  We want to determine if long-term exercise improves aortic aneurysms and helps to avoid surgical intervention.
