E-194 A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial of prophylactic antidepressant medication for the prevention of depression post aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

ConclusionsThe initial results of this ongoing study illustrate the feasibility and challenges of mental health screening and prophylactic randomized treatment in the acute care setting for post-SAH patients. Recruitment has been a challenge in this patient population. Here we describe the trends we see in outcomes at 12-months compared to baseline. These trends suggest that despite clinical improvement there may be an increase in depression and anxiety development one-year post-aSAH.Disclosures J. Keen: None. D. Lim: None. K. Prijoles: None. H.
