Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07549893Recruiting
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.
