Brief summary
The objective of this study is to verify the performance and safety of the Sugita Aneurysm Clips devices when used as intended and to identify possible risk factors. Data collected will be used to support the continuing performance and safety of the devices in the post-market use environment in Europe. Subjects who have an intracranial aneurysm that the physician intends to treat with the subject devices will be included in the study. Subjects will be followup as per hospital standard of care for 5 years.
Interventions
Aneurysm clipping is a surgical procedure used to treat brain aneurysms.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Rate of permanent aneurysm occlusions | Up to 12 months | Rate of complete permanent aneurysm occlusions according to Molyneux et al, 2005, where the category of occlusion is selected as "Complete occlusion". |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of adverse events | up to 60 months | The number and percentage of subjects experiencing any adverse event. Each adverse event type, including severity will be reported. |
| Change in Modified Rankin Scale | through 60 months | The mean, standard deviation, median, minimum, maximum, and number of evaluable observations will be reported for baseline and to each follow up visit using descriptive statistics.The absolute change from baseline will be calculated for each subject at follow up visits. |
| Amount of aneurysm retreatments | through 60 months | The amount of aneurysm retreatments will be reported as 0, 1 and \>=2 retreatments through each follow up visit. |
| Procedure success rate | within 1 week after clipping | Rate of successful aneurysm occlusions per Molyneux classification "Complete occlusion" while using a permanent clip. Frequency counts and percentages of subjects, as well as 95% confidence intervals for the percentages will be presented. |
| Rate of successful applications of temporary clips | Within 1 week after clipping | Subjects that experience a successful aneurysm occlusion according to Molyneux classification "Complete occlusion" while using temporary clips. |
