Constriction of the large and medium-sized cerebral arteries following an aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) is a well-known condition that primarily affects the anterior circulation supplied by the internal carotid arteries. SAH is a rare but potentially fatal type of stroke. Across the literature, authors have defined vasospasm using terms such as "symptomatic vasospasm," "delayed cerebral ischemia" (DCI), "transcranial Doppler vasospasm," and "angiographic vasospasm." Because posthemorrhagic vasospasm causes significant neurologic morbidity and death, there has been a great deal of interest and research into its physiologic basis and developing effective preventative and treatment strategies. The triple-H therapy hemodynamic augmentation technique, which includes hypertension, hemodilution, and hypervolemia, has been an important part of the treatment. In this article, we'll look at cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid haemorrhage, including its causes, epidemiology, evaluation, and, most importantly, management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
