High Compliance with Scheduled Nimodipine Is Associated with Better Outcome in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Patients Cotreated with Heparin Infusion by Aaron Wessell, Matthew J. Kole, Neeraj Badjatia, Neeraj Badjatia, Neeraj Badjatia, Gunjan Parikh, Jennifer S. Albrecht, David L. Schreibman, David L. Schreibman, J. Marc Simard, J. Marc Simard, J. Marc Simard

“…Multivariable analysis showed that, along with age and World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies grade, nimodipine compliance was an independent predictor of clinical outcome; compared to missing one or more nimodipine doses, full dosing compliance was associated with increased odds of discharge to home (odds ratio 5.20; 95% confidence intervals 1.46–18.56).ConclusionIn aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients with modified Fisher scores 2 through 4 who are cotreated with a low-dose heparin infusion, full compliance with nimodipine dosing was associated with increased odds of discharge to home.…”
