In Brief:
IMPLICATIONS: The moving correlation coefficients between slow changes of arterial blood pressure and mean or systolic flow velocity, termed “Mx” and “Sx,” respectively, characterize cerebral autoregulation but have not been applied to subarachnoid hemorrhage. A study in 15 patients revealed that Mx and Sx were significantly increased, indicating impaired autoregulation during vasospasm as compared with baseline, as well as on the side of vasospasm in comparison with the contralateral side.
