Abstract
Anemia is common after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and may exacerbate the reduction in oxygen delivery that underlies delayed cerebral ischemia. Fall in hemoglobin may relate to blood loss as well as inflammatory suppression of erythropoiesis. Identifying factors associated with anemia may facilitate targeted interventions, such as the use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents, which could minimize the burden of anemia and reduce red blood cell (RBC) transfusion requirements.Keywords
