Abstract:Background
Methamphetamines (MA) are a frequently used drug class with potent sympathomimetic properties that can affect cerebral vasculature. Conflicting reports in literature exist about the effect of exposure to MA on vasospasm risk and clinical outcomes in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). This study aimed to characterize the impact of recent MA use on the timing, severity and features of vasospasm in aneurysmal subarachnoid as well as neurological outcomes.
