Clinical Burden of Angiographic Vasospasm and Its Complications After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Systematic Review.

Patients with angiographic VSP and its related complications often had poor functional, neurological, and cognitive outcomes and reduced odds of survival both in hospital and at follow-up. We estimate that angiographic VSP and its related complications, DCI and cerebral infarction, lead to an approximately threefold higher odds of poor functional and cognitive outcomes, and about a twofold increase in the odds of death.
