Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

All patients with acute aneurysmal hemorrhage are treated in accordance with our institutional protocol. After securing of the aneurysm, some smokers with acute aneurysmal hemorrhage are randomly assigned to transdermal nicotine replacement (NRT). The short- and long-term effect of NRT will be studied comparing non-smokers, smokers without NRT and smokers with NRT.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Various aspects of the study:

* Study cerebral circulation with transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) prior to and after NRT.
* Study cardiac output and peripheral vessel resistance minimally invasive (LiDCO) prior to and after NRT in patients that already have established LiDCO.
* Monitor intracranial pressure prior to and after NRT in patients that have established an intracranial pressure sensor.
* Register the frequency of cerebral vasospasm and complications in non-smokers, smokers without NRT, and smokers with NRT.
* Register the use of opioids, opioidanesthetics, propofol og psycholeptics in non-smokers, smokers without NRT, and smokers with NRT.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

NRT

Active smokers with acute aneurysmal hemorrhage randomly assigned to transdermal nicotine replacement after securing of the aneurysm.

Patient management for all patients is according to the institutional treatment guidelines and independent of group assignment.

The dose is dependent on smoke consumption prior to the ictus. Nicorette 7 mg/day for smokers smoking 1-10 cigarettes /day Nicorette 14mg/day for smokers smoking 11-19 cigarettes/day Nicorette 21 mg/day for smokers smoking 20 or more cigarettes daily

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Nicotine (transdermal)

Intervention Type DRUG

Application of transdermal nicotine replacement in smokers with acute aneurysmal hemorrhage

no NRT

Active smokers with acute aneurysmal hemorrhage that were assigned to not receive transdermal nicotine replacement.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

non-smokers

Non-smokers with acute aneurysmal hemorrhage. Non-smokers do not receive transdermal nicotine replacement. This group is to be compared to the group of active smokers receiving transdermal nicotine replacement and to the group of active smokers not receiving transdermal nicotine replacement.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
