Abstract

Descriptive observational study aimed to describe the clinical and radiographic features of cerebral vasospasm within the first 72 hours from onset in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage from 09/2022 to 07/2023 at Bach Mai hospital. A total of 193 patients, 60.6% (117/193) were female and mean age was 58.5 ± 12.9 years, 53.9% (104/193) had history of hypertension. The majority of patients had cerebral vasospasm within the first 72 hours at different levels (76.2%; 147/193) and 51.3% (99/193) had vasospasm in a segment of artery. Moderate and severe vasospasms accounted for 45.1% (87/193).
