Abstract

Cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) constitute the commonest debilitating disease of the nervous system. Most prevalent among the elderly, CVA occurs in 10 out of every 10 thousand people and is associated with wide- ranging complications. Hence, the use of advanced procedures of treating patients with CVA, in conjunction with complementary therapeutic methods has become the focus of attention. Since surgical management of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is often inevitable and complementary treatments can reduce the risk of rebleeding due to aneurysmal rupture, there has been a rise in application of microscopic surgery and complementary treatments such as the use of NIMODEPINE for reducing vasospasm. This study was conducted to compare the old and new methods of treating patients with SAH. This is a 10-year cross-sectional study of 100 patients in two groups. Each consisting of 50 patients. The first group was treated using microscopic surgery and complementary drugs such as NIMODEPINE. The second group underwent non microscopic surgery and was not treated with complementary drugs. Methods of study, outcome of surgery, complications, length of hospitalization and patient mortality rate were compared in respect of surgical technique and demographic indices. Data were analyzed with SPSS software package using T-student test. Women accounted for 56% and 66% of patients treated with the new and old methods. The majority of patients in both groups were aged between 40 and 60 years. Post operation complications developed in 30% of patients treated with the old method and 22% of those treated with the new method using NIMODEPINE (P>0.05). Mean length of hospitalization was 15.34 and 14.38 drugs in the old and new methods, respectively. Effort and advancements in treating patients with SAH and preventing rebleeding (which is associated with a high mortality rate) have led to development of microscopic surgical techniques alongside complementary treatments. However, climatic conditions, Lack of trained and well-coordinated surgical teams, limited resources and facilities, as well as underlying risk factors have contributed to high mortality rate due to SAH in Iran.
