Endothelin 1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoconstrictor that may play a role in cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, data regarding its pathogenic role in the development of vasospasm are controversial. We planned a prospective, observational clinical study to investigate the temporal relationship between increased ET-1 production and cerebral vasospasm or other neurological sequelae after SAH.
