A randomised controlled trial was used to compare the use of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) and open repair for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Randomised controlled trials (RCT) are studies that allow participants to be randomly allocated to different groups to measure and compare events that take place before and after they receive different interventions (Jadad, 1998). In this study patients were randomised to either open AAA repair or EVAR using a 1/1
