ABSTRACT: Background
Due to its high efficacy, flow diversion is increasingly used in the management of unruptured and recanalized aneurysms. Because of the need for perioperative dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT), flow diversion is not indicated for the treatment of ruptured aneurysms. To overcome this major limitation, surface modification-'coating'-of flow diverters has been developed to reduce platelet aggregation on the implanted device, reduce thromboembolic complications, and facilitate the use of coated flow diverter treatment in patients with single antiplatelet treatment (SAPT). COATING (Coating to Optimize Aneurysm Treatment in the New Flow Diverter Generation) is a prospective, randomized, multicenter trial that aims to determine whether the use of the coated flow diverter p64 M
