New procedure aims to stop brain bleeds from coming back

NCT ID NCT04816591

Summary

This study tested whether adding a minimally invasive procedure to standard care could better treat chronic subdural hematomas, which are slow brain bleeds. In the procedure, doctors blocked a small artery feeding the bleed. Researchers compared this approach to standard care alone in 376 patients to see if it reduced the chance of the bleed returning or needing another surgery within six months.
