Triple H Therapy after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. A Review

  • Conference paper
Cerebral Vasospasm

Part of the book series: Acta Neurochirurgica Supplements ((NEUROCHIRURGICA,volume 77))

Abstract

Outcome in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) have improved over the past two decades with advances in neurosurgery and neurocritical care, including an emphasis on early aneurysm clipping to prevent rebleeding. However, cerebral ischemia related to vasospasm remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality, despite the beneficial effects of the calcium channel blocker nimodipine.
