The Intra-arterial Vasospasm Trial - A Multicenter Randomized Study

The primary objective of the study is to determine the optimal intra-arterial drug treatment regimen for arterial lumen restoration after cerebral vasospasm following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The secondary objective is to evaluate clinical outcome 90 days after patient discharge following in-hospital optimal intra-arterial drug treatment for cerebral vasospasm. This study is a prospective multicenter randomized trial.
