National Vascular Registry 2021 Short Report on COVID-19

This short report on COVID-19 is an update following the report published by NVR in November 2020. It presents results on the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on provision of NHS vascular care in the UK, and its potential impact on short-term surgical outcomes. The analysis covered:

• patients who had a repair procedure for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)
• patients who had carotid endarterectomy, and
• patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) who had either lower limb revascularisation (endovascular / bypass surgery) or major amputation.

The results in this report are based on data extracted from the NVR data collection system on 28 January 2021, which covered patients whose operation was performed in 2019 and 2020.
