Cerebrospinal Fluid Hemoglobin to Monitor for Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Related Secondary Brain Injury (HeMoVal)
Hemoglobin in the Cerebrospinal Fluid to Monitor for Secondary Brain Injury After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage - a Prospective Multinational Validation Study
Study Overview
Status
Detailed Description
This is an international multicentre observational study to validate cerebrospinal fluid hemoglobin (CSF-Hb) as a monitoring biomarker for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage related secondary brain injury (SAH-SBI). It is hypothesized that there is an association between the concentration of CSF-Hb and the occurrence of SAH-SBI during the first 14 days after the bleeding (post-SAH).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the association between ventricular CSF-Hb and SAH-SBI during the first 14 days post-SAH.
The secondary objectives are to investigate:
- the association between ventricular CSF-Hb and angiographic vasospasms (aVSP), delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and delayed ischemic neurological deficits (DIND) during the first 14 days post-SAH,
- the accuracy of ventricular CSF-Hb to monitor for aVSP, DCI and DIND during the first 14 days post-SAH,
- the association between lumbar CSF-Hb and SAH-SBI, aVSP, DCI and DIND during the first 14 days post-SAH,
- the accuracy of lumbar CSF-Hb to monitor for aVSP, DCI and DIND during the first 14 days post-SAH,
- the association between baseline measures and CSF-Hb (ventricular and lumbar during the first 14 days post-SAH),
- the association between CSF-Hb (ventricular and lumbar during the first 14 days post-SAH) and co-interventions/complications,
- the association between CSF-Hb (ventricular and lumbar during the first 14 days post-SAH) and chronic hydrocephalus at 12 weeks follow-up,
- the association between CSF-Hb (ventricular and lumbar during the first 14 days post-SAH) and functional outcome at 12 weeks follow-up,
- exploratory CSF proteome/metabolome analyses to assess Hb toxicity, inflammation, neuronal, or vascular damage.

Cohorts and Interventions
Group / Cohort |
---|
Study cohort
The study population consists of patients admitted to an academic tertiary care center due to an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
The primary objective of the study focuses on patients included with external ventricular drain (EVD), while secondary objectives consider patients with both EVD and lumbar drain (LD) as well as patients without any drainage system.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage related secondary brain injury (SAH-SBI)
Time Frame: Day 1 to day 14 after the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
|
Composite outcome consisting of angiographic vasospasms (aVSP), delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), or delayed ischemic neurological deficits (DIND).
|
Day 1 to day 14 after the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Angiographic vasospasms (aVSP)
Time Frame: Day 1 to day 14 after the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
|
The definition of aVSP comprises a narrowing of cerebral arteries based on a digital subtraction angiography (DSA), CT angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).
In the absence of an appropriate imaging procedure on the respective day, this will be noted as no imaging performed.
|
Day 1 to day 14 after the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
|
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI)
Time Frame: Day 1 to day 14 after the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
|
DCI is defined as new ischemia or new infarction on CT/perfusion CT or MRI.

---|---|---|
Cerebrospinal fluid hemoglobin
Time Frame: Day 1 to day 14 after the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
|
CSF sampling: CSF sampling will be performed via EVD or LD, depending on the patient's access to the CSF space. The decision regarding the insertion of an EVD or LD is made independently of this study and according to the clinical standard of care. 2ml of CSF will be sampled on a daily basis at approximately the same time in the morning. CSF centrifugation and storage: Immediately after sample collection, the CSF will be centrifuged at 1500 G for 15 minutes. The cell-free CSF supernatant will be stored at -80°C until analysis. Spectrophotometric cerebrospinal fluid hemoglobin (CSF-Hb) measurements: Absorption spectra in the visual range between 350 and 650 nm of all CSF samples will be measured. Quantification of oxyhemoglobin in CSF (CSF-Hb) will be performed using spectral deconvolution. |
