Purpose
A Randomized Clinical Trial with security and dose testing of Sildenafil Citrate in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a rupture of a cerebral aneurism for prevention of cerebral vasospasm. The cerebral vasospasm is a decrease in blood flow that occurs when the intracranial vessels lose their capability of self-control of dilations and contractions. Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage without neurological deficits who underwent endovascular or surgical correction of the aneurysm can participate in this trial. They will be randomized to a daily doses of 75 mg of Sildenafil, 150 mg of Sildenafil or Placebo from the third to the 14th day post bleeding. Today there is no proven clinical treatment for prevention of cerebral vasospasm.

Further study details as provided by Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- New neurological Deficit [ Time Frame: From third to 14th day post subarachnoid hemorrhage ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Development of clinical symptoms suggestive of vasospasm, which are: afasia, hemiparesis, disorientation, or worsening of consciousness without hydrocephalus or expanding cloth. To access level of consciousness we will use the Glasgow Coma Scale.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Transcranial Ecodoppler [ Time Frame: From the third to the 14th day after subarachnoid hemorrhage ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Signs of vasospasm in in transcranial ecodoppler.
- Mortality [ Time Frame: From the third to the 14th day before subarachnoid hemorrhage. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]General mortality (for any causes).
- Side effects [ Time Frame: From the third to the 14th day after subarachnoid hemorrhage. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Drug side effect: hypotension, visual blurring, nasal congestion, angina pectoris, asthma crisis, AV block, digestive bleeding, and priapism.
- Time to discharge [ Time Frame: From the third day after subarachnoid hemorrhage to discharge. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Time to discharge (period of hospital stay).
- Rankin Scale [ Time Frame: At discharge from the hospital. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Modified Rankin scale at discharge.
