Table 3.

Comparison of the frequency of thromboembolic events during the first treatment session between bare and fibered coils

bare coils
(n =1536)
fibered coils
(n = 474)
fibered coil fractions:

<50% (n=332) 50-80% (n=96) >80% (n =31)

No events 1375 (89.5%) 436 (92.0%) 300 (90.4%) 91 (94.8%) 30 (96.8%)

Events 161 (10.5%) 38 (8.0%) 32 (9.6%) 5 (5.2%) 1 (3.2%)

p-values p = 0.134 (Fischer’s exact test) p = 0.218 (χ2-test of independence)
