Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) is a complex neurovascular syndrome with profound systemic effects, associated with high rates of disability and mortality. Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), which encompasses all neurobiological events occurring in the subacute-late stage post-aSAH, has a complex pathogenesis and can occur even in the absence of instrumental vasospasm. Our aim was to assess the correlation between CSF lactate and glucose levels measured on the 2nd or 3rd day post-aSAH with clinical deterioration caused by DCI and with 3-month functional outcome.

Abstract

Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) is a complex neurovascular syndrome with profound systemic effects, associated with high rates of disability and mortality. Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), which encompasses all neurobiological events occurring in the subacute-late stage post-aSAH, has a complex pathogenesis and can occur even in the absence of instrumental vasospasm. Our aim was to assess the correlation between CSF lactate and glucose levels measured on the 2nd or 3rd day post-aSAH with clinical deterioration caused by DCI and with 3-month functional outcome.
