Coil treatment may reduce repeat brain surgery for seniors
NCT ID NCT07291427
First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 35 times
Summary
This study tests whether using detachable coils to block blood vessels in the brain can safely treat chronic subdural hematoma—a buildup of blood on the brain's surface common in older adults. About 150 participants will receive the coil procedure, with or without standard surgical drainage. The goal is to see if this approach reduces hematoma size and lowers the need for repeat treatments.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
detachable coils (Balt coils) used to block blood vessels in the brain
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a less invasive way to treat chronic subdural hematoma and lower the chance of it coming back after initial treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage registry study, not a randomized trial, so results may be less definitive. Risks include stroke, bleeding, or the procedure not working as hoped.
Conditions
