What kind of changes may participation in Abdominal Aorta Aneurysm Screening generate in the individual's role in the major life areas?

Authors: Lotte Groth Jensen, Claus Loevschall, Anne Lee

Internal reviewers: Felix Gurtner, Allessandra Lo Scalzo

No studies were identified.

There is no evidence that AAA screening generates changes in social roles. Being detected with an AAA eventually leads to an operation posing a risk of death and of complications and thereby a change in social roles.

Further information on risk related to AAA screening and repair (operation) can be found in the result cards: RC-SAF1, RC-SAF2 and RC-SAF4.
