1/ Is the #WEB device as safe and effective as #SAC for treating #ruptured wide-necked #IntracranialAneurysms ❓❔❓🤔 Check out this thread by @AaronCalienes 🧠 discussing our latest work at @INR_WFITN journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/15…
2/ This cohort used data from 217 patients harboring #ruptured wide-necked #IntracranialAneurysms from 4 neurovascular centers. The population was divided into two groups: 👉105 were treated with the #WEB device 👉112 underwent #SAC
3/ After adjusting for the selected covariates, the difference in the odds of #complete aneurysm #occlusion at last follow up was #nonsignificant. Similarly, the ordinal #RRclassification did not differ betwen the two groups.
4/ After adjusting for the selected covariates, no association was observed for a #FavorableFunctionalOutcome with either technique.
5/ 👉There was a statistically significant higher rate of procedure-related #complications in the #SAC group. 👉Patients in the #SAC group had a significalty higher rate of #IschemicEvents. 👉The rate of #EVDhemorrhage was higher in the #SAC group.
6/ 👉We observed a #LinearRelationship 📈 between the probability of a procedure-related #complications and #ProcedureTime. 👉Upon adjusting for EVD implantantion, the probability across procedure time was #lower with #WEB compared with #SAC.
7/ Our study suggests that: 📌#SAC and #WEB embolization of #ruptured wide-necked aneurysms show comparable #efficacy 📌 However, #SAC has a higher rate of procedure-related #complications primarily driven by #IschemicEvents and higher rate of #EVDhemorrhage in #SAC patients
