Clinical Trial Summary

The study will compare clinical and angiographic outcomes in patients receiving Hydrocoil aneurysm treatment versus patients receiving non-HydroCoil aneurysm treatment.


Clinical Trial Description

With prospective, randomized trials in progress evaluating the effectiveness of Hydrocoils and Cerecyte coils in comparison to bare platinum coils, the next step is a direct comparison of Hydrocoils and non-HydroCoils (Cerecyte or Platinum). Considering the increased costs to society of treatment with these new coils, it is essential that the benefits of the new technology are properly evaluated against the existing platinum coil technology in a scientifically valid manner. ;
