September is Brain Aneurysm Awareness Month

At Rapid Medical, its our mission to continue the development of technologies to improve the treatment of #Stroke for safer and better patient outcomes. A brain aneurysm is a weak, bulging area in an artery in the brain, analogous to a thin balloon or a weak spot on a tire’s inner tube. Because its walls may be weak and thin, an aneurysm is at risk of rupturing. If an aneurysm ruptures, blood spills into the space between the skull and the brain, causing a serious type of #stroke known as a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). #Comaneci, the embolization-assist device, enables physicians to safely occlude the aneurysm with coils while maintaining continuous blood flow to the brain. The #Comaneci supports the coils ensuring they are deployed inside the aneurysm proper without occluding the parent vessel. The #Comaneci's mesh is 100% visible and the physician can control it's size by an external ratchet handle during the procedure. Finally, the coils prevents blood from flowing into the aneurysm. This causes the blood inside the aneurysm to clot, healing the aneurysm. #CommitedToTheTreatment #Comaneci #RapidMedical https://bafound.org/
