ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI)-induced cerebral infarction is a major cause of adverse neurological outcomes following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). This study aimed to investigate the relationship between postoperative serum electrolyte levels and DCI in patients with aSAH. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We analyzed the data of patients with aSAH between 2015 and 2022. The patients were classified into two groups according to whether they experienced DCI. Electrolyte levels were categorized into three groups based on the normal ranges for electrolytes. Logistic regression models were used to study the relationship between electrolyte levels and DCI. Another logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between the different severity levels of statistically significant indicators and DCI. A restrictive cubic spline model was adopted to assess the potential linear relationship between electrolytes and DCI. Subsequently, sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the impact of collinearity among ions. Finally, subgroup analysis was performed.RESULTS:
This study included 1,099 patients. Patients with hyperchloremia were more prone to DCI than those with normal chloride levels. Subsequently, excluding the population with hypochloremia, both mild and severe hyperchloremia were found to be associated with an increased risk of DCI compared with normal chloride levels. Within the framework of a restrictive cubic spline, our findings revealed an increased incidence of DCI (P for nonlinear = 0.735) as chloride levels increased. Sensitivity analysis revealed that patients with severe hyperchloremia were more susceptible to DCI.CONCLUSIONS:
This study found that patients with aSAH and postoperative hyperchloremia are more prone to developing DCI.Palavras-chave
