Sex-specific extracerebral complications in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Extracerebral complications in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) often occur during their stay at the neurocritical care unit (NCCU). Their influence on outcomes is poorly studied. The identification of sex-specific extracerebral complications in patients with aSAH and their impact on outcomes might aid more personalized monitoring and therapy strategies, aiming to improve outcomes.

Methods

Consecutive patients with aSAH admitted to the NCCU over a 6-year period were evaluated for the occurrence of extracerebral complications (according to prespecified criteria). Outcomes were assessed with the Glasgow Outcome Scale Extended (GOSE) at 3 months and dichotomized as favorable (GOSE 5-8) and unfavorable (GOSE 1-4). Sex-specific extracerebral comp
