Background and Objective: The International Subarachnoid Aneurysm Trial (ISAT) showed a greater likelihood of survival free 1 year disability in patients undergoing endovascular coiling who were started on antiplatelet agents after SAH compared to ones undergoing neurosurgical clipping. However, data on safety of acute parental antiplatelet agents after aneurysmal coiling is lacking. We report on the safety of IV Eptifibatide (rapidly reversible Glyprotein IIbIIIa inhibitor) on patients presenting with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage undergoing endovascular coiling for aneurysmal embolization. Methods: All the patients from 2009-13 who presented to our university affiliated comprehensive stroke center with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and underwent endovascular coiling were included for the study. Patients that received IV Eptifibatide for various reasons including acute need for stent assist coiling after securing the ruptured aneurysm with endovascular coiling were reviewed. Eptifibatide was administered intra-arterially as a 135-μg/kg single-dose bolus, and then continued on intravenous infusion of 0.5-μg/kg/min post-procedurally. Charts were reviewed for all patients to assess for medical/procedural complications including symptomatic and asymptomatic intra- and extra-cranial hemorrhages, groin hematomas, epistaxis and gross hematuria. Results: Of the total of 93 patients treated with coil embolization during this period, 5 patients (mean age 56 years, 20% male [n=1]) received acute intra-procedural Eptifibatide followed by IV infusion for a mean duration of 77 hours (range 20-130 hours). Various reasons for use of Eptifibatide included: stent assist coiling [n=2], multiple stents for flow diversion [n=1], partial coil prolapse [n=1] and vascular lumen flow compromise [n=1]. None of the patients demonstrated symptomatic/asymptomatic hemorrhage, groin hematoma, epistaxis or hematuria. Conclusion: Our results may highlight safety of administering IV Eptifibatide to prevent thrombotic complications after endovascular coil embolization in select patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Multicenter prospective trials are warranted to corroborate our findings.

Abstract:Object:Our experience in Calgary was reviewed to determine the safety and clinical effectiveness of coiling in patients with high-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).Methods:Patients with Hunt-Hess grades IV and V aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage who underwent endovascular coiling between January 1999 and April 2009 at Foothills Medical Centre, Calgary, Alberta, Canada were reviewed. The primary outcome measure was the Modified Rankin Score after at least six months. Secondary outcome measures included extent of aneurysm occlusion and peri-procedural complications. In patients with favourable functional outcomes, Barthel's Index (BI), Re-integration to normal living index (RINL), and Zung depression scale (ZDS) were determined.Results:Thirty-three patients were identified (median age of 57 years; 73% female) and 69% were Hunt-Hess grade IV subarachnoid hemorrhage and 22 % were grade V Endovascular coiling resulted in absence of residual flow into the aneurysm fundus in 91%. Only seven procedure-related complications occurred with no deaths attributed to the procedure. Vasospasm, hydrocephalus, and pneumonia were the most common non-procedural complications. Average follow-up was 27 +/- 17 months. Overall mortality was 32%, but 53% of patients had good functional outcome (mRS<3). Nine patients completed the BI, RINL, and ZDS with average BI 99 +/- 2, RINL 89 +/- 14, ZDS 33 +/-11, suggesting minimal deficits in function and mood.Conclusions:Endovascular coiling in patients with high-grade subarachnoid hemorrhage is safe. While the morbidity and mortality from high-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage remains significant, favourable radiologic and functional outcomes can be achieved in a significant proportion of these critically ill patients.

ABSTRACT Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) with subdural hygroma (SH) was rarely reported after endovascular coiling. A 60-year-old male presented with impaired consciousness and convulsions due to SAH from a ruptured aneurysm. It was managed by endovascular coiling 20 h after the onset of symptoms. Serial brain imaging for 2 weeks revealed progressive bilateral SHs, more on contralateral side of leaking aneurysm. Management of SH was discussed in a multidisciplinary setting to be conservative as there was neither significant mass effect nor hydrocephalus. The patient recovered neurologically except for mild dysarthria. The SH persisted for 2 months and then cleared gradually. We concluded that SH may arise and become symptomatic as an unusual sequela of post-coiling of a ruptured intracranial aneurysm, in which the SH can complicate the clinical course of SAH. However, the symptomatic SH may resolve spontaneously and completely without any intervention, but needs meticulous neurological assessment and follow-up.

The Relationship

Background: Implementation of evidence-based performance metrics drive standardized care and improve patient outcomes. Limited performance metrics have been developed for implementation in the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) population. Timely aneurysm repair following an aSAH is associated with rebleeding prevention and mortality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate time to aneurysm repair as a candidate performance metric by testing a model that includes hospital and patient characteristics as predictors of time to aneurysm repair and mortality, with time to aneurysm repair as a potential influence on these relationships in aSAH. Methods: A retrospective, cross-sectional analysis of patient discharge data from 2014 in the state of Florida was conducted. Data were derived from The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, HealthCare Utilization Project, State Inpatient Dataset, and the American Hospital Association Annual Survey. Patients with a primary ICD-9 diagnosis of aSAH and principle procedure of clipping or coiling were included (n=387). The study outcome was in-hospital mortality. Independent variables were level of stroke center, age, race, sex, and type of aneurysm repair. Hierarchical logistic regression was used to estimate the probability of in-hospital death. Results: Patients who underwent endovascular repair of an aneurysm were more likely to be treated in <24 hours compared to those undergoing aneurysm clipping (OR = 0.54, CI = .35-.84, p =0.01). Patients treated at a comprehensive stroke center (CSC) had a 72% reduction in odds of death compared to those treated at primary stroke centers (OR =0.28, CI = 0.10-0.77, p =0.01), controlling for disease severity and comorbidity. Time to aneurysm repair was not significantly associated with mortality and did not influence the relationship between hospital and patient characteristics and mortality. Conclusions: Treatment at a certified CSC was the only significant predictor of surviving aSAH. Time to aneurysm repair did not influence the relationship between hospital and patient characteristics associated with mortality. Further research is needed to identify appropriate measures and to define what should be tracked for performance in the aSAH population.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Stent-assisted coiling in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage remains controversial. Currently, there is a paucity of data regarding the utility of this procedure and the risks of hemorrhagic and ischemic complications. OBJECTIVE: To assess the utility of stent-assisted coil embolization and pretreatment with antiplatelet agents in the management of ruptured wide-necked aneurysms. METHODS: A retrospective study of 65 patients with ruptured wide-necked aneurysms treated with stent-assisted coiling. Patients with hydrocephalus or a Hunt and Hess grade ≥ III received a ventriculostomy before endovascular intervention. Patients were treated intraoperatively with 600 mg of clopidogrel and maintained on daily doses of 75 mg of clopidogrel and 81 mg of aspirin. The Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) score was recorded at the time of discharge. We identified major bleeding complications secondary to antiplatelet therapy and cases of in-stent thrombosis that required periprocedural thrombolysis. RESULTS: Of the aneurysms, 66.2% arose within the anterior circulation; 69.2% of patients presented with hydrocephalus or a Hunt and Hess grade ≥ III and required a ventriculostomy. A good outcome (GOS of 4 or 5) was achieved in 63.1% of patients, and the overall mortality rate was 16.9%. There were 10 (15.38%) major complications associated with bleeding secondary to antiplatelet therapy (5 patients, 7.7%) or intraoperative in-stent thrombosis (5 patients, 7.7%). Three (4.6%) patients had a fatal hemorrhage. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that stent-assisted coiling and routine treatment with antiplatelet agents is a viable option in the management of ruptured wide-necked aneurysms.
