Interventions

  • Vectris trial leads and stimulation — DEVICE
    The electrode is placed into the epidural space using standard epidural placement techniques with paramedian approach. The initial electrode settings have been adopted from prior studies. Should any significant discomfort be elicited from the stimulation, first the amplitude will be decreased to an acceptable level. If an acceptable level of stimulation is unable to be found, the stimulation will be discontinued.
  • Sham — DEVICE
    No electrode is placed.

Study Details

The purpose of the study is to see that in addition to existing therapy, how well an additional procedure named spinal cord stimulation might reduce blood vessel spasm from aneurysm rupture.
