Very nice paper showing benefit using a prophylactic IT approach rather than a delayed therapy. #SAH #vasospasm #DCI #intrathecal

🚨 New study in Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery on aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) management 🩸 🧠 Anticipatory initiation of Intrathecal Nicardipine (ITN)—given before clinical or imaging evidence of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI)—significantly reduces DCI parenchymal infarcts compared to controls (31.3% vs 55.2%). Key findings: 📉 Starting ITN prior to intra-arterial (IA) spasmolytics significantly lowers the need for serial IA treatments for recalcitrant vasospasm from 71.4% down to 23.1%. 🛡️ It is a safe intervention with no increased risk of EVD-related complications or meningitis. ⚠️ Timing is everything, because reactionary ITN given after DCI onset did not reduce the rate of additional infarcts or the need for serial IA treatments. Question: Does this article change your practice? #NeuroTwitter #NeuroCriticalCare #SubarachnoidHemorrhage #Vasospasm #NeuroSurgery sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
