The Collaborative Acute Aortic Syndrome Project (CAASP) is a multi-centre service evaluation project to understand current acute aortic syndrome (AAS) pathways. The main objective of this study is to outline the current national and international diagnostic and management pathways for AAS, and inform and facilitate improvements in clinical practice. The project is being jointly run with the Vascular & Endovascular Research Network (VERN) and the Aortic Dissection Charitable Trust (TADCT), and is supported by BSIR, BSET, VSGBI and the Circulation Foundation.

Current Status: Recruiting OPEN.
