This multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether an artificial intelligence (AI) multimodal prediction model-guided intensified follow-up strategy improves 1-year outcomes after surgery for acute Stanford type A aortic dissection. Eligible adult patients who have undergone open surgical repair or open plus endovascular/hybrid repair and are clinically stable to enter the postoperative follow-up phase will be randomized 1:1 to usual postoperative follow-up or AI-guided intensified follow-up. The AI-guided arm will receive usual follow-up plus an AI-generated risk stratification report for 1-year mortality and adverse aortic remodeling. Higher-risk patients may receive more frequent follow-up, prioritized CTA review, multidisciplinary assessment, and targeted management reminders. The primary outcome is all-cause mortality through postoperative day 365. Key secondary outcomes include aortic reintervention, adverse aortic remodeling, and ICU readmission within 1 year.
