10,000-Patient study monitors BALT medical devices in Real-World use
NCT ID NCT04927156
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study is collecting information from up to 10,000 people who receive BALT medical devices for conditions like brain aneurysms, stroke, and blocked arteries. Researchers will track how well the devices work and if any safety issues arise during routine care. The goal is to gather real-world data to confirm the devices perform as expected.
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 successful, this study will provide real-world evidence on the safety and performance of BALT devices, helping doctors choose the best treatments for vascular conditions.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may be influenced by differences in patient care across hospitals.
