Can a sleep patch be harmful to a person that has had a cranial aneurysm?

If by "sleep patch" you are referring to the "LifeWave Rest Quiet Sleep Patch" (or similar knock off), then it is almost certainly safe to use in this case. The LifeWave patch contains only amino acids, water, stabilized oxygen, and natural organic compounds--while LifeWave company does not specify what these compounds are, the company does stress that the patch is not transdermal, meaning nothing enters the body. However, I see no possible way the patch actually does anything to promote sleep, including act as a "cellular antenna" as the company says it does. The plus side of that is safety--if it doesn't do anything to begin with, then it won't be able to do anything bad. If you do have a problem, it will likely be a reaction to the adhesive. This would depend on your skin sensitivity. All that being said, anyone with who has had a cranial aneurysm (or who has any potentially serious medical condition) should consult their doctor before beginning any treatment. This is especially true for patients who are taking medications--in the case of someone who is recovering from an aneurysm, these may include painkillers, calcium channel blockers, anticonvulsants, etc.

What do they do with aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery?
They do the same with that as they do with any other aneurysm. Today they run a tube up through a leg artery with a piece of rolled up screen like material on it. They twist it around until they find the aneurysm. Then they unroll the piece of screen like material inside the artery. It provides a patch. If the aneurysm has burst, they may need to go inside the body and do emergency surgery. In that case they may put a patch on the outsides of the artery like a hose. It depends on the type of situation.
