Brief Summary:
This study evaluates the pharmacokinetic profile of levetiracetam in critically ill patients who have suffered a subarachnoid hemorrhage. The patients will be evaluated for development of augmented renal clearance and the effects and duration of effects this may have on levetiracetam clearance.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in systemic levetiracetam clearance over time [ Time Frame: 0-20 days ]
    calculated systemic levetiracetam clearance (based on plasma concentrations) within 48 hours of initial presentation to the neurointensive care unit and every 5 days thereafter up to 20 days


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in urinary clearance of levetiracetam and creatinine [ Time Frame: 0-20 days ]
    12-hour urine collections on day 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20, calculated creatinine based on 12-hour urine collections daily for 7 days following diagnosis of vasospasm, and calculation of direct renal clearance of levetiracitam based on urine collection
