ABSTRACT
The relationship between in-hospital hemoglobin (Hb) drift and outcomes in patients undergoing surgical clipping for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is not well studied. This study aims to investigate the association between Hb drift and mortality in this patient population. We conducted a cohort study encompassing adult patients diagnosed with aSAH who were admitted to a university hospital. These patients were stratified into distinct groups based on their Hb drift levels. We employed logistic and Cox proportional hazard models to assess the relationship between Hb drift and outcomes. Additionally, propensity score matching (PSM) was utilized to ensure comparability between patient groups. The discriminative performance of different models was evaluated using C-statistics, integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), and net reclassification improvement (NRI). Overall, our cohort comprised 671 patients, of whom 165 (24.6%) demonstrated an in-hospital Hb drift exceeding 25%. The analyses revealed elevated Hb drift was independently associated with higher likelihood of follow-up mortality (aOR 3.29, 95% CI 1.65 to 6.56; P = 0.001) and in-hospital mortality (aOR 3.44, 95% CI 1.55 to 7.63; P = 0.002). PSM analysis yielded similar results. Additionally, patients with Hb drift exhibited a notable decrease in survival rate compared to those without Hb drift (aHR 3.99, 95% CI 2.30 to 6.70; P < 0.001). Furthermore, the inclusion of Hb drift significantly improved the C-statistic (P = 0.037), IDI (2.78%; P = 0.004) and NRI metrics (41.86%; P < 0.001) for mortality prediction. In summary, our results highlight that an in-hospital Hb drift exceeding 25% serves as an independent predictor of mortality in patients who have undergone surgical clipping for aSAH.
