Resumen |
Background |
Management of external ventricular drainage (EVD) among aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients remain controversial, and there are no consensus guidelines reporting optimal values of intracranial pressure (ICP).
Objective |
To analyze predictors of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aSAH and the influence of ICP values on DCI.
Methods |
We prospectively collected patients with aSAH requiring EVD. Predictors of DCI (new CT hypodensities developed within the first 3 weeks not related to others causes) were studied. Vasospasm and brain hypoperfusion were studied with CTA and CTP (RAPID software).
Results |
Among 50 aSAH patients treated with EVD, 21 (42%) developed DCI, while 27 (54%) presented vasospasm. Mean ICP ranged between 2mmHg and 19mmHg. On the multivariate analysis, mean ICP (OR=2, 95% CI=1.01–3.9, P=0.04) and mean volume of the hypoperfusion on Tmax delay>6 (OR=1.2, 95% CI=1.01–1.3, P=0.02) were the only independent predictors of DCI. To predict DCI, Tmax delay>6seconds presented the highest AUC (0.956), with a cutoff value of 18mL showing sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy of 90.5% (95% CI=69%–98.8%), 86.2% (95% CI=68.4%–96%), 82.6% (95% CI=65.4%–92%), 92.5% (95% CI=77%–98%), 88% (95% CI=75%–95%), respectively. The AUC of the mean ICP was 0.825, and the best cutoff value was 6.7mmHg providing sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy of 71.4% (95% CI=48%–89%), 62% (95% CI=42%–79%), 58% (95% CI=44%–70%), 75% (95% CI=59%–86%), 66% (95% CI=51%–79%) for the prediction of DCI, respectively.
Conclusion |
ICP<7mmHg could potentially be beneficial in decreasing DCI. Whole-brain CTP allows a reliable DCI prediction, and a hypoperfusion volume larger than 18mL at Tmax delay>6seconds can predict more than 80% of DCI (Fig. 1, Fig. 2).
