The use of assistive devices when treating unruptured aneurysms is widespread in neurointerventional practice. But there is no standard for how long patients should receive dual anti-platelet therapy after the procedure, to protect them from thrombotic complications. Durations can range from one month to one year. This episode looks at a review of patient data across 12 locations to understand the effect of therapy duration on risk of complications.
