Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Post-treatment platelet increase: The increase in platelet count during the follow-up period compared to the platelet count during the screening period

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary endpoint Secondary endpoint for efficacy [Secondary endpoint for efficacy] Post-treatment platelet increase: The number of platelet increases during the study intervention period compared to the platelet count during the screening period Treatment costs for platelet increase (number of NBCA vials, number of metal coils used, number of catheters) Embolization rate of splenic artery: Embolization volume during the follow-up period on CT/spleen volume during the follow-up period (%) Treatment time (Time required from reaching the target blood vessel to completing embolization) Secondary safety endpoints Frequency of adverse events: Post-embolization syndrome (abdominal pain, fever), splenic abscess, pleural and abdominal effusion, splenic rupture, sepsis, disseminated intravascular coagulation, pancreatic necrosis, catheter-related adverse events (difficulty or inability to remove catheter due to NBCA, vascular damage)
