CORRELATION OF SERUM BRAIN NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE WITH HYPONATREMIA AND DELAYED ISCHEMIC NEUROLOGICAL DEFICITS AFTER SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE

Abstract

Increasing serum BNP levels independently were associated with hyponatremia, significantly increased the first 24 hours after onset of delayed ischemic neurological deficits, and predicted the 2-week Glasgow Coma Scale score.
