What is the effect of hematocrit values on aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage?
Research has shown that there is a correlation between hematocrit values and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Studies have found that higher hematocrit values result in better cerebral oxygen delivery in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Additionally, red blood cell transfusions have been shown to increase cerebral oxygen delivery in anemic patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Therefore, it is important to monitor hematocrit levels in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in order to ensure optimal oxygen delivery to the brain.
