Objective: Acute kidney injury is common in critically ill patients and may contribute to poor outcome. However, data on the potential influence of early plasma creatinine (pCr) in patients suffering from aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) on neurological outcome is scarce. We therefore analyzed our neurovascular database in order to study the association between early pCr and functional outcome after SAH.

Methods: From 2011 to April 2016, 330 patients suffering from aneurysmal SAH were treated at the authors institution and included in this retrospective cohort study. Information, including patient characteristics, treatment modality, aneurysm size and location, laboratory values, radiological features, and functional neurological outcome were assessed and further analyzed. Patients suffering from SAH were divided into good-grade (WFNS I-III) versus poor-grade (WFNS IV-V) on admission. Outcome was assessed according to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 6 months and stratified into favourable (mRS 0-2) versus unfavourable (mRS 3-6).

Results: Overall 163 of 330 patients suffering from aneurysmal SAH achieved favourable outcome (49%). Patients with SAH and initial pCr levels ≤ 0.8 mg/dl achieved significantly more often favourable outcome compared to patients with SAH and initial pCr levels > 0.8 mg/dl (p=0.01). Patients suffering from poor-grade SAH had significantly higher levels of initial pCr, when compared to patients with good-grade SAH (p=0.02).

Conclusion: We demonstrated that increased initial plasma creatinine levels are associated with unfavourable functional outcome after SAH. The present study highlights the necessity of close surveillance of renal function in the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage population.
