About this study

The study evaluates the clinical and imaging outcome of middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization with liquid embolic agent for treatment of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH)

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective one arm trial designed to assess the safety and efficacy of MMA embolization with liquid embolic agents (onyx/squid/Phil) as the main treatment of CSDH.

The subjects are enrolled in the study according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Imaging and clinical presentations of patients are recorded. Within 48 hours of embolization, patients are assessed with clinical examination and with a brain CT scan to evaluate in any change in their symptoms and CSDH volume. 2-4 weeks after embolization, patients are evaluated in clinic for any change in their symptoms and signs. 60 days after embolization patients are examined clinically and are assessed for SDH volume change in CT scan and MRI.

If there is any significant increase in CSDH volume or any deterioration of patient, evacuation of hematoma is considered.

MMA embolization is performed under general anesthesia using biplane or monoplane angiography. Femoral or radial accesses are used. Guiding catheter is advanced into external carotid artery in corresponding side. The corresponding MMA is catheterized distally by micro-catheter and is embolized by liquid embolic agents. Patients are discharge next day if they are stable.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of CSDH regression

    Volume reduction of CSDH in follow-up imaging (CT/MRI) 60 days after embolization

    Measured: 60 dyas

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Incidence of CSDH progression or recurrence

    Increase in volume of CSDH

    Measured: 60 days

  2. Incidence of new neurological deficit (ND)

    ND includes: dementia, memory loss, cognitive problems, monoparesis/hemiparesis, cranial nerve paresis, dysphasia/aphasia

    Measured: 60 days

  3. incidence of Death

    Measured: 60 days

  4. Incidence of new ischemic stroke

    new ischemia in imaging (DWI/MRI or CT scan) within 60 days of operation

    Measured: 60 days

  5. Incidence of myocardial infarction/myocardial ischemia

    new ischemic heart attack within 60 days of operation

    Measured: 60 days

  6. Incidence of embolization complication in brain

    cranial nerve palsy (especially VII), vision loss (ophthalmic/retinal artery occlusion), ...

    Measured: 48 hours

  7. incidence of embolization complication out of brain

    puncture hematoma, major artery dissection, new renal failure, ...

    Measured: 15 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Embolization of MMA in people with Chronic Subdural Hematoma, run by Mashhad University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 3 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2023. 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 Iran. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Humain Baharvahdat, MD (+98-915-110-0400, humainbv@yahoo.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of CSDH regression (time frame: 60 dyas). 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 19 May 2023.
