Background
The molecular mechanisms underlying development of posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) remain incompletely understood. Consequently, treatment strategies tailored towards the individual patient remain limited. This study aimed to identify proteomic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers capable of predicting shunt dependency and functional outcome in patients with SAH in order to improve informed clinical decision making.
Methods
Ventricular CSF samples were collected twice from 23 patients with SAH who required external ventricular drain (EVD) insertion (12 patients with successful EVD weaning, 11 patients in need of permanent CSF shunting due to development of PHH). The paired CSF samples were collected acutely after ictus and later upon EVD removal. Cisternal CSF samples were collected from 10 healthy control subjects undergoing vascular clipping of an unruptured aneurysm. All CSF samples were subjected to mass spectrometry-based proteomics analysis. Proteomic biomarkers were quantified using area under the curve (AUC) estimates from a receiver operating curve (ROC).
Results
CSF from patients with SAH displayed a distinct proteomic profile in comparison to that of healthy control subjects. The CSF collected acutely after ictus from patients with SAH was moreover distinct from that collected weeks later but appeared similar in the weaned and shunted patient groups. Sixteen unique proteins were identified as potential predictors of shunt dependency, while three proteins were identified as potential predictors of functional outcome assessed six months after ictus with the modified Rankin Scale.
Conclusions
We here identified several potential proteomic biomarkers in CSF from patients with SAH capable of predicting (i) shunt dependency and thus development of PHH and (ii) the functional outcome assessed six months after ictus. These proteomic biomarkers may have the potential to aid clinical decision making by predicting shunt dependency and functional outcome following SAH.
