About this study

Official title: PRONTO: Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Surgery Utilizing the Artemis Neuro Evacuation Device in Patients With Intraventricular Hemorrhage in the Hyper-Acute Phase

The purpose of this prospective, single center, single arm registry is to assess technical feasibility, peri-procedural complications, post-procedure imaging outcomes, and 30-day safety outcomes in subjects with intraventricular hemorrhages utilizing the Artemis Neuro Evacuation Device in the hyper-acute phase.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this prospective, single center, single arm registry is to assess technical feasibility, peri-procedural complications, post-procedure imaging outcomes, and 30-day safety outcomes in subjects with intracerebral hemorrhages utilizing the Artemis Neuro Evacuation Device in the hyper-acute phase.

The Artemis Neuro Evacuation Device is used for the controlled aspiration of tissue and/or fluid during surgery of the Ventricular System or Cerebrum in conjunction with a Penumbra Aspiration Pump.

The Penumbra Aspiration Pump is indicated as a vacuum source for the Penumbra Aspiration Systems.

The enrollment period will end once 20 evaluable subjects have been enrolled in the registry. Each subject will be in the registry for approximately 1 month.

  • Artemis Neuro Evacuation DeviceDevice

    The Artemis Neuro Evacuation Device is used for the controlled aspiration of tissue and/or fluid during surgery of the Ventricular System or Cerebrum in conjunction with a Penumbra Aspiration Pump.

    The Penumbra Aspiration Pump is indicated as a vacuum source for the Penumbra Aspiration Systems.

    The Artemis Device will be evaluated by descriptive statistics in this registry to assess its efficiency and reliability in minimally invasive, mechanical evacuation of hematoma in patients with intracranial hemorrhage under direct visualization and control using a neuroendoscope.

IVH subjects in the Hyper-Acute PhaseThe purpose of this prospective, single center, single arm registry is to assess technical feasibility, peri-procedural complications, post-procedure imaging outcomes, and 30-day safety outcomes in approximately 20 subjects with intracerebral hemorrhages utilizing the Artemis Neuro Evacuation Device in the hyper-acute phase. For the purposes of this registry, the hyper-acute phase as defined by initiation of the MIS procedure no longer than 12 hours from initial NCCT scans and no longer than 18 hours since time patients last known well.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intracerebral Hemorrhage and Brain Hemorrhage, run by Penumbra Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Business decision to focus on other studies. No safety concern.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Efficacy Endpoint: Post-Procedural Hemorrhage reduction of ≥ 85% in hemorrhage volume assessed by CT at 24 hours (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Sep 2022.
