Coagulation of Middle Meningeal Artery During Brain Bleed Surgery
This trial tests a new technique during surgery for chronic subdural haematoma (bleeding between the brain and skull) where doctors use heat or special tools to seal a blood vessel (the middle meningeal artery) to help prevent the bleed from returning. The goal is to see if this addition to standard surgery is safe and feasible.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07291427Recruiting
Coiling for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial tests a procedure called coiling (placing tiny coils) to block the blood supply to a chronic subdural hematoma, a slow-growing blood collection around the brain. It may help reduce the need for surgery and improve recovery.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07715656Recruiting
Middle-meningeal-artery embolization for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial studies a procedure called middle-meningeal-artery embolization, which blocks the blood supply to a chronic subdural hematoma (a slow-growing blood collection around the brain). It compares outcomes in people with one-sided versus both-sided bleeds, and aims to see if this less invasive treatment can help reduce the need for surgery or improve recovery.
Burlington, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03582293RecruitingPhase 3

AmsterdamAges 50 years+ - NCT04511572Recruiting
Middle artery embolization for chronic brain bleeding
This study tests a procedure called middle meningeal artery embolization for people with a confirmed chronic subdural hematoma (a long-lasting bleed near the brain). It may help by reducing the blood supply to the area and improving symptoms after symptoms start or worsen.
AmsterdamAges 50–90 - NCT05267184Recruiting
Embolization versus surgery for long-term brain blood collections
This trial compares two ways to treat a chronic subdural hematoma (a long-lasting bleed between the brain and its covering): blocking a specific artery versus standard surgery to remove the blood. It may help you and your care team choose the safer and more effective option for your situation.
GothenburgAges 18–89 - NCT05327933Recruiting
Preventing chronic bleeding from the brain’s covering after surgery
This trial looks at whether a procedure called middle meningeal artery embolization can help stop chronic subdural hematoma (slow bleeding/collection under the brain covering) from coming back after your first surgery. It studies an added endovascular treatment right after your operation to reduce recurrence.
Berlin, State of BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT05713630RecruitingPhase 3
Tranexamic acid for symptomatic subdural blood clots
This trial studies whether tranexamic acid (a medicine that helps slow blood breakdown) can improve outcomes for people with symptomatic subdural hematoma—blood collecting between the brain and its outer covering. You may be able to join if you’re older, have bleeding seen on CT, symptoms linked to the bleed, and meet several safety and timing rules.
Toronto, OntarioAges 45 years+ - NCT06163547Recruiting
Brain artery treatment for chronic subdural hematoma
This study tests a new way to treat chronic subdural hematomas (a type of bleeding on the brain) by using a very thin tube to seal off a small artery inside the head. This may help the blood clot shrink without needing a traditional surgery.
GenevaAges 18–100 - NCT06181994Recruiting
Middle meningeal artery embolization for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial looks at how well a procedure called middle meningeal artery embolization works for people with chronic subdural hematoma (a collection of old blood on the brain's surface). It uses specific materials to block the blood supply to the hematoma, which may help the body reabsorb it without surgery.
Coral Gables, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06323434Recruiting
Spinal fluid leaks in chronic subdural hematoma
This study looks for spinal fluid leaks in people with chronic subdural hematoma (a slow buildup of blood on the brain). It uses MRI to find a possible cause, which could help improve treatment.
Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06347796Recruiting
Embolization vs surgery for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial compares a newer, less invasive treatment (embolization) with traditional surgery to treat chronic subdural hematoma (a slow bleed on the brain). It aims to see which approach works better and has fewer side effects.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 40–90 - NCT06401772Recruiting
Body posture to prevent repeat brain bleed after surgery
This trial tests whether lying in a specific body position after surgery can help prevent a chronic subdural hematoma from coming back. It is for people aged 60 and older who have had a small drainage procedure for this type of brain bleed.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 60 years+ - NCT06510582RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Bevacizumab injection for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial tests if injecting bevacizumab into the artery that supplies the covering of the brain can help treat chronic subdural hematoma (a slow-growing collection of blood on the brain's surface). It may offer an alternative to surgery for some patients.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06621407Recruiting
Best drainage method after burr hole for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial compares different ways to drain a chronic subdural hematoma after a single burr hole procedure. It aims to find which method works best to help your brain recover.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06696079Recruiting
Early vs later blood thinner restart after brain bleed surgery in atrial fibrillation
This trial compares restarting a blood thinner early (within a few days) versus later (after about a week) in people who have a chronic subdural hematoma drained and also have atrial fibrillation. The goal is to find out which timing helps prevent both new bleeding and blood clots.
Oulu, North OstrobothniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06759428Recruiting
Chronic subdural hematoma patient registry study
This study collects information from patients diagnosed with chronic subdural hematoma (a type of bleeding on the brain) to better understand the condition and its treatment. By participating, you help doctors learn more about what helps patients recover.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06772740Recruiting
Middle meningeal artery embolization for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial tests a procedure called middle meningeal artery embolization, which aims to stop the bleeding and reduce the fluid buildup from a chronic subdural hematoma. It may be an option for patients who have a hematoma at least 10mm thick and one or more risk factors such as older age, blood thinners, diabetes, or certain scan features.
Nishinomiya, HyōgoAges 18 years+ - NCT06911736Recruiting
Does head-down position after surgery reduce chronic subdural hematoma recurrence?
This study tests whether placing patients in a head-down position (Trendelenburg) after surgery for a chronic subdural hematoma reduces the chance of the hematoma coming back. It may help people who are already scheduled for surgery to drain the blood collection.
Medellín, AntioquiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07144423Recruiting
Comparing two drainage methods for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial compares two surgical techniques—using a small endoscope (camera) versus a single burr hole—to drain blood from a chronic subdural hematoma (a slow bleed on the brain surface). The goal is to see which method leads to better recovery and fewer complications.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT07240454Recruiting
Should you keep taking aspirin for a chronic brain bleed?
This trial looks at whether people with a chronic subdural hematoma (a slow bleed on the brain) who are not having surgery should keep taking aspirin or stop it. It aims to find out which approach is safer and helps the hematoma heal better.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07245264RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
TXA for preventing return of subdural hematoma
This trial is testing whether giving a medicine called tranexamic acid (TXA) during surgery helps prevent rebleeding after draining a chronic subdural hematoma. TXA helps stop bleeding, and the goal is to reduce the chance the hematoma comes back.
ChandigarhAges 18 years+ - NCT07258069Recruiting
Glue injection for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial tests whether injecting a medical glue into a specific artery in the brain can safely treat a chronic subdural hematoma (a collection of blood on the brain's surface) or a recurrent subdural hematoma. This approach may offer a less invasive alternative to traditional surgery.
