268 The Effectiveness of Fasudil Hydrochloride Administration to Prevent Cerebral Vasospasm After Intervention for Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) is a complication observed in 17-40% of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Since CVS deteriorates patients' outcome, various treatments have been tried to prevent CVS. The administration of Fasudil hydrochloride (FH) is given Grade A recommendation level in Japanese stroke guidelines for CVS prevention. However, robust study analyzing the effect of FH on CVS prevention is scarce. Therefore, we decided to verify the CVS preventive effect of FH using a large database of hospitalized patients in Japan.
