Magnesium and aspirin treatment in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage. Comparison of effects after endovascular and neurosurgical aneurysm occlusion
2009
Objective
Aneurysm treatment with endovascular coiling is associated with a better outcome than neurosurgical clipping in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). The better outcome after coiling may decrease the risk reduction from other treatments in these patients, and thus may increase sample sizes for current or future neuroprotective trials. The influence of the method of aneurysm treatment was studied in our randomised MASH trial, which assessed in a factorial design the efficacy of magnesium and aspirin in preventing delayed cerebral ischaemia (DCI) and poor outcome.
