Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of limb occlusion therapy (remote ischemic conditioning, RIC) in subjects with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

The main question it aims to answer is whether RIC can improve long-term recovery in participants with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Researchers will compare levels of functional independence in participants in the RIC-group to participants in the sham-group.

Conditions

  • Subarachnoid Hemorrhage, Aneurysmal
  • Delayed Cerebral Ischemia

Interventions

DEVICE

Remote Ischemic Conditioning with Automatic Tourniquet Device

5 Cycles of Remote Ischemic Conditioning performed on the leg. One cycle consists of 5 minutes of arterial occlusion followed by 5 minutes of reperfusion. The above is repeated daily for 14 days or until patient is discharged. Patients are randomized to either active Remote Ischemic Conditioning or Sham-treatment.

DEVICE

Sham Remote Ischemic Conditioning with Automatic Tourniquet Device

5 Cycles of sham-treatment performed on the leg. One cycle consists of 5 minutes of sham-treatment followed by 5 minutes of pause. The above is repeated daily for 14 days or until patient is discharged. Patients are randomized to either active Remote Ischemic Conditioning or Sham-treatment.
