Abstract:
Objective To explore the correlation between brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and cerebral vasospasm (CVS) following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and hyponatremia. Methods Plasma BNP levels and serum natrium were assessed at 4 different time periods (1 to 3 days, 4 to 6 days, 7 to 9 days, and 10 to 12 days after SAH) in 30 patients with SAH. Correlation analysis was carried out between plasma BNP and blood sodium level. Plasma BNP levels were compared according to patients with or without CVS, and with or without symptom. The plasma BNP levels of 18 healthy controls were measured meanwhile.Results Plasma BNP levels in SAH patients were significantly elevated compared with control subjects ( P
