Registered outcomes3

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryResting Cerebral Blood Flow During Peak Period of Vasospasm Risk7-10 days after hemorrhageResting cerebral blood flow during peak period of vasospasm risk measured by PET
PrimaryCerebral Autoregulation During Peak Period of Vasospasm Risk7-10 days after hemorrhageFraction of patients with impaired static autoregulation (% change in MAP/% change in CVR) \* 100 A value of \<60 is considered abnormal.
SecondaryImpact of Statin on Oxygen Extraction Fraction and Cerebral Metabolism During Peak Period of Vasospasm Risk7-10 days after hemorrhage
Oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) is the ratio of Oxygen delivery (ml/100 g/min) and oxygen utilization (ml/100 g/min). It describes the fraction of the oxygen that reaches the brain that it actually uses for energy production.
