The DOME study is a clinical trial exploring a new treatment approach for patients who suffered a severe brain bleed due to an aneurysm.
To prospectively capture data of patients treated with the guideline-recommended, standard-of-care dome-protection approach. The data will be used to determine: * (Primary) Incidence of aneurysm re-rupture by 90 days, censored at the time of definitive aneurysm treatment or death, detected on a surveillance head CT or one obtained after a neurological decline. * (Secondary) Measure functional status of patients around 90 days (+/- 14 days) * (Secondary) Measure success of dome protection as determined by angiographic criteria and procedural complications DOME protection is a treatment approach for patients who suffered a severe brain bleed due to an aneurysm. Instead of performing immediate, extensive surgery, this study investigates a minimally invasive procedure called "dome protection", which involves placing tiny coils to patch the most fragile part of the aneurysm. This method aims to prevent re-bleeding and allow the patient to stabilize before undergoing full aneurysm repair. The findings could lead to improved health outcomes in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage by reducing procedure-related risks.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
30
Re-rupture incidence
Detected on head CT
Time frame: From procedure to 90-days post procedure.
Functional Outcome
Measured on Modified Rankin Scale (MRS) Scored 0-6 where 0-No disability, 1=no significant disability, 2= slight disability, 3=moderate disability, 4=moderately severe disability, 5=severe disability, 6=dead. The higher the score the worse the outcome.
Time frame: 90 days (+-14 days) post procedure
Accomplishment of Dome protection
Based on angiographic goals: 1) partial coil obliteration of the aneurysm dome or increased contrast stasis within the aneurysm dome compared to pre-embolization angiography, 2) filling of the aneurysm neck, 3) no filling of the aneurysm dome wall, and 4) no filling of the aneurysm rupture site or extra-aneurysmal contrast extravasation.
Time frame: From procedure through 90-days post procedure
Procedural complications during the dome-protection and delayed final procedures on the aneurysm
Collection of adverse events.
Time frame: Time of procedure through 90 days post procedure
