Blood pressure and outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

ABSTRACT: Blood pressure management is crucial in the treatment of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Possible association between the blood pressure increase and the risk of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and different systemic complications after aSAH is still a matter of debate. This study aims to elucidate the influence of blood pressure levels on the outcome of aSAH. All consecutive aSAH patients (n = 690) treated between 01/2003 and 06/2016 were included. The mean value of the mean arterial pressure (MAP) during 14 days after ictus was calculated for each individual. According to the institutional standards of vasospasm management, the mean 14 days MAP ≥ 95 mmHg was referred as increased (IMAP) and the patients with and without vasospasm were analyzed separately.
