The aim of this study is to evaluate the tolerance of intravenous milrinone combined to the current standard treatment for cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage. Assessment of IV milrinone safety in this setting is mandatory before the conduction of a large study assessing its effectiveness.
The aim of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the hemodynamic tolerance of intravenous milrinone for the treatment of arterial vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage. Intravenous milrinone is part of our standard care protocol for the management of cerebral vasospasm in association with nimodipine (intravenous or enteral route) and high arterial blood pressure (mean arterial pressure of 100-120 mmHg, spontaneously or induced by volume expansion and norepinephrine). All patients of our ICU who were diagnosed with cerebral arterial vasospasm during the few days following a subarachnoid hemorrhage will be included.

| Rhythmic tolerance | Other | Rhythmic intolerance is defined by the occurrence of arrhythmia prompting the initiation of an antiarrhythmic medication and the need to decrease or even to stop the infusion of milrinone | ||
| Hematological tolerance | Other | Hematological tolerance will be considered good if milrinone infusion was not interrupted owing to the occurrence of thrombocytopenia | ||
| Milrinone efficiency on cerebral vasospasm | Other | It will be assessed using ultrasound measurements of middle cerebral arteries velocities. A decrease of at least 20% of the mean velocity or of the Lindegaard index will be considered as a significant positive effect of the treatment (including milrinone). | ||
| Milrinone efficiency using the modified Rankin scale | Other | Scored as follows: 0 = No symptoms, 1 = No significant disability. Able to perform all usual activities, despite certain symptoms, 2= Slight disability. Able to take care of his own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities, 3 = Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted, 4 = Moderate severe disability. Unable to meet their own physical needs without help and unable to walk without help, 5 Severe disability. Needs constant care and attention, bedridden, incontinent, 6 = Death. |

| Hemodynamic tolerance during treatment: defined by a stable mean blood pressure of 100-120 | A good hemodynamic tolerance is defined by a stable mean blood pressure of 100-120 mmHg without neither the need to decrease milrinone infusion rate below 0.5 g.kg-1.min-1 nor the need to increase norepinephrine above 1g.kg-1.min-1 Safety Issue: No | At 6 months. |

| Hematological tolerance: will be considered good if milrinone infusion was not interrupted | Hematological tolerance will be considered good if milrinone infusion was not interrupted owing to the occurrence of thrombocytopenia Safety Issue: No | Hematological tolerance will be assessed daily through measuring platelet count for the duration of treatment. |
| Milrinone efficiency on cerebral vasospasm | It will be assessed using ultrasound measurements of middle cerebral arteries velocities. A decrease of at least 20% of the mean velocity or of the Lindegaard index will be considered as a significant positive effect of the treatment (including milrinone). Safety Issue: No | Milrinone efficiency on cerebral vasospasm will be assessed for the duration of treatment, which will be on average one month. Mean velocity and the lindegard index will be initially measured at 0, 2, 12 and 24 hours; and subsequently daily. |

Able to perform all usual activities, despite certain symptoms, 2= Slight disability. Able to take care of his own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities, 3 = Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted, 4 = Moderate severe disability. Unable to meet their own physical needs without help and unable to walk without help, 5 Severe disability.
