Abstract [eng] Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a critical condition complicated by cerebral vasospasm (CV) and subsequent cerebral infarction (DCIn). One of the key challenges for SAH patient management is predicting and preventing these secondary complications, because many SAH patients survive the initial hemorrhage and possibly could be treated if these secondary complications were identified on time. While current clinical methods can assess SAH severity and patient outcomes, their use in predicting CV and DCI is limited. Emerging evidence suggests that blood degradation products (BDPs) resulting from the breakdown of leaked blood in the subarachnoid space (SAS) may play a significant role in triggering CV and DCI. The results of this study support the hypothesis that simulation of blood degradation products transport can be used to predict CVs and subsequent DCIn for aSAH patients.
