A Study of Human Placenta as a Model for Microsurgical Aneurysm Clipping
Rochester, MN
The purpose of this study is to obtain human placentas from obstetric patients giving birth at Mayo Clinic. We then plan to produce model aneurysms within the placentas using a validated methodology. Model placentas will then be used for training purposes in a microsurgical lab available to all neurosurgical residents.

A Study of Computer Simulation of Endovascular Repair of Cerebral Aneurysms Aneurysms
Scottsdale/Phoenix, AZ; Jacksonville, FL; Rochester, MN
This study will look at how a new investigational software program, called the Endovantage Interventional Suite (EVIS), can help your doctor better plan surgeries like yours through computer simulation. The software allows your doctor to see how the chosen medical device(s) will perform when it is placed in the blood vessel in your brain. We hope to determine if the computer simulation is realistic and indeed accurately shows your doctor exactly what happened at the time of surgery. If the computer simulation is an accurate reflection of the actual surgery, then the software could help your doctor take better care ...

Ischemic Preconditioning Prior to Cerebrovascular Interventional Procedures
Rochester, MN
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients receiving Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) prior to elective endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms will have a reduction in rates of cerebral ischemia as detected onimaging when compared to a group of historical controls. Our secondary aim is to determine if patients who receive ischemic preconditioning have any elevation in serum markers for cerebral ischemia.
