About this study

Official title: CARE: A Multicenter Case Study to Assess Radiation Exposure in Patients Treated With the Penumbra Coil 400

The primary objective of this study is to gather data on the radiation exposure in patients treated with the Penumbra Coil 400™ System (PC 400) or conventional coils per their respective indications for use.This is a multicenter case review study of patients presenting with intracranial aneurysms who are treated with coil embolization therapy using the PC 400 or conventional coils. Data for each patient are collected acutely.Up to 90 patients treated with the PC 400 or conventional coils (2:1) at up to 15 centers in the USA will be enrolled.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 1. Acute radiation exposure [air kerma, kerma-area product (KAP) or dose area product (DAP), and fluoroscopic time].

    Radiation exposure is measured by air kerma, kerma-area product (KAP) or dose area product (DAP), and fluoroscopic time.

    Measured: At immediate post-procedure

  2. 2. Procedural serious adverse events

    Measured: Procedural serious adverse events up until 3 days or discharge, whichever occurs first.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intracranial Aneurysms, run by Penumbra Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

1. Acute radiation exposure [air kerma, kerma-area product (KAP) or dose area product (DAP), and fluoroscopic time]. (time frame: At immediate post-procedure). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Apr 2019.
