Abstract

BACKGROUND: Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a major cause of morbidity after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), yet early prediction remains difficult, especially in comatose patients. Existing risk scores are largely static and do not capture dynamic pathophysiological changes. Heart rate variability (HRV), reflecting autonomic nervous system activity, may provide additional predictive…
