Clinical trial

Clevidipine for Vasospasm After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Name
HFHS-CLEVIDIPINE-PV
Description
Vasospasm occurs frequently after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and can lead to strokes. The investigators will investigate if infusion of a novel drug, clevidipine, will decrease vasospasm during the infusion and post infusion period using transcranial doppler monitoring of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and moderate severity vasospasm
