What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This study looks at whether people who have had a ruptured brain aneurysm also have an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the main belly artery) that they don't know about. About 233 participants will get a painless belly ultrasound to check. The goal is to see how common this hidden aneurysm is, so doctors can decide if routine screening is worthwhile.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If this study finds a strong link, it could lead to routine screening for abdominal aneurysms in brain aneurysm survivors, potentially preventing life-threatening ruptures.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only measures how often abdominal aneurysms occur in this group, and results may not apply to all patients.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

All aSAH patients from a large prospective cohort trial in the Netherlands will be screened for eligibility(12). The Study on Prognosis of Acutely RupTured Aneurysms (SPARTA) is an observational prospective cohort trial conducted in the Netherlands in several clinical centres. The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term clinical outcome of aSAH patients who underwent neurosurgical- or endovascular treatment for their ruptured IA. The study has a population of around 900 patients. Because of the lethality of aSAH, a large proportion of this study population will be diseased or heavily incapacitated.
