Trials of the Week: Landmark Nimodipine Studies Special Guest: Salia Farrokh, PharmD, BCCCP, FNCS @salia_farrokh Salia Farrokh joins to highlight two landmark studies with nimodipine, “Cerebral Arterial Spasm – A Controlled Trial of Nimodipine in Patients with Subarachnoid Hemorrhage” published in NEJM in 1983 and “Effect of Oral Nimodipine on Cerebral Infarction and Outcome after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: British Aneurysm Nimodipine Trial” published in 1989 in BMJ. We review aSAH treatments in the 1970's and 1980's and what evidence existed for nimodipine use before highlighting our two trials of the week. How does the study methodology compare from then to now? Where did our nimodipine dosing regimen come from? Is the term cerebral artery vasospasm out of date? Is it still appropriate to use evidence from the 1980's in the 2020's? Is there more to research with respect to nimodipine? What to do with missed nimodipine doses?
