Serum cytokine patterns in early SAH are associated with poor functional outcomes and DCI. The significant cytokines primarily modulate the inflammatory response. This supports earlier SAH studies linking inflammation and poor outcomes. In particular, this study identifies novel cytokine patterns over time that may indicate impending DCI.
