About this trial

A prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled, open-label, blinded endpoint evaluation study.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age 18 or above;

Patients with a clear history of head trauma and confirmed acute epidural hematoma by head CT;

Cases that the case screening committee deems suitable for conservative treatment*;

Randomly within 6 hours after injury, and initiate treatment within 8 hours after injury;

Disqualifiers

Patients who require craniotomy surgery to remove hematoma;

Bilateral acute epidural hematoma;

Combined severe acute subdural hematoma;

Brainstem injury;

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • MMA embolization plus medical therapy

    Procedure/Surgery

    Patients assigned to the intervention group will receive endovascular embolization treatment within 2 hours after enrollment. Patients will receive the best conservative treatment recommended by the guidelines after MMA, and conservative treatment will be the same in both groups

  • Medical therapy alone

    Drug

    Patients will receive the best conservative treatment recommended by the guidelines, and conservative treatment will be the same in both groups. Conservative treatment includes medication and general treatment. Drug therapy can be divided into hemostatic treatment, antihypertensive treatment, and symptomatic treatment. Specific local clinical diagnosis and treatment standards shall prevail or refer to corresponding clinical guidelines.
