Abstract:
Objective To report a newly developed method and procedure to establish a rat model of subarachnoid hemorrhage in detail, and to provide a better model simulating the clinical subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by a ruptured aneurysm for related research.Methods One hundred and twenty healthy SPF 2-3-month old male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups, 30 rats in each group.The three experimental groups were sacrificed at 6, 24 and 72 hours after modeling.Rat models of subarachnoid hemorrhage were established by inserting a fiber core in the internal carotid artery and piercing this artery.Successful establishment of the subarachnoid hemorrhage model was confirmed by observation of breathing, pupil, defecation, urination and inspection at autopsy dissection.The controllability and reproducibility of this model were verified by observation of clinical manifestation and explored by mortality analysis.Results Subarachnoid hemorrhage was successfully induced by fiber core piercing the internal carotid artery at the needed location.Conclusions This method of model preparation is stable and understandable.The operation is nimble, with a good reproducibility.This model can be successfully performed after a short time learning, well simulate the sudden hemorrhage caused by a ruptured aneurysm, and suitable for research on early brain injury and vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage.
