Brief Summary

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a form of stroke in which secondary neurological deterioration is an important cause of mortality and morbidity. These secondary changes, so called delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), are caused by lysis of erythrocytes which can react to form iron, an toxic substance to the brain. Iron chelators remove the excess of iron and are standard care in iron-overloaded patients. Deferoxamine (DFO) an chelator has not been evaluated in SAH patients. This study evaluates the safety of deferoxamine in SAH patients.
