What is being measured

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

  1. severity of headache after coil embolization between 2 arms

    check change of severity of headache after coil embolization between 2 arms

    Measured: prior to intervention / immediate after procedures / postoperative days 3, 7, 14, 90 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Duration of headache after coiling embolization after intervention

    check duration of headache after coil embolization

    Measured: Measure the duration of time from when a headache occurs to when it disappears, assessed up to 3 months

  2. characteristics of headache after coiling embolization between 2 arms

    identify relationship between headache location and treated aneurysm or deployed stent

    Measured: prior to intervention / immediate after procedures / postoperative days 3, 7, 14, 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing non-stent assisted coiling and stent assisted coiling in people with Headache and Aneurysm, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

severity of headache after coil embolization between 2 arms (time frame: prior to intervention / immediate after procedures / postoperative days 3, 7, 14, 90 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03359252, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 25 Oct 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
