Managing and treating chronic subdural hematoma in children
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how to best treat and manage a chronic subdural hematoma (a collection of blood on the brain's surface) in children. It aims to find the best treatment for children who have this condition from causes other than head injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be younger than 18 years old.
- You must have a chronic subdural hematoma that is not caused by a head injury.
- You must be healthy enough to have surgery.

This study looks at how children under 18 do after surgery for a specific type of brain bleed (called an extradural or epidural hematoma) caused by a head injury. The goal is to understand what helps them heal better.
This study looks at people with a type of brain bleed called an acute subdural hematoma that happens within 3 days of a head injury. It aims to learn more about how to best treat and care for these patients.
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.
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.
This trial compares two places on the skull to drain a chronic subdural hematoma—a collection of old blood pressing on the brain. It tests whether draining from the front or the side of the head works better and is safer.
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.
