OBJECTIVE: Hypomagnesemia frequently occurs in hospitalized patients, and it is associated with poor outcome. We assessed the frequency and time distribution of hypomagnesemia after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and its relation, ship to the severity of SAH, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), and outcome after 3 months. METHODS: Serum magnesium was measured in 107 consecutive patients admitted, within 48 hours after SAH. Hypomagnesemia (serum magnesium <0.70 mmol/L) at admission was related to clinical and initial computed tomographic characteristics by means of the Mann-Whitney U test. Hypomagnesemia at admission and during the DO onset period (Days 2-12) was related to the occurrence of DO and hypomagnesemia at admission, and hypomagnesemia that occurred any time during the first 3 weeks after SAH was related to outcome. RESULTS: Hypomagnesemia at admission was found in 41 patients (38%) and was associated with more cisternal (P = 0.006) and ventricular (P = 0.005) blood, a longer duration of unconsciousness (P = 0.007), and a worse World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies scale score at admission (P = 0.001). The crude hazard ratio for DCl with hypomagnesemia at admission was 2.4 (95% confidence interval, 1.0-5.6), and after multivariate adjustment it was 1.9 (95% confidence interval, 0.7-4.7). The hazard ratio of hypomagnesemia from Days 2 to 12 for patients with DO was 3.2 (range, 1.1-8.9) after multivariate adjustment. The crude odds ratio for poor outcome, (Glasgow Outcome Scale score, 1-3) with hypomagnesemia at admission was. 2.5 (range, 1.1-5.5). Hypomagnesemia at admission did not contribute to the prediction of outcome in the multivariate model. CONCLUSION: Hypomagnesemia is frequently present after SAH and is associated with severity of SAH. Hypomagnesemia occurring between Days 2 and 12, after SAH predicts DCl.
