Özet
Vasospasm is a significant reason for poor clinical outcome in subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). One of the possible causes of vasospasm is attributed to the inhibition of Na+/K+-ATPase and increased intracellular calcium. Although digoxin, a cardiac glycoside (CG), inhibits the Na+/K+-ATPase, diverse and contradictory biological actions of CGs have also been reported. This study aimed to investigate the effect of digoxin on an experimental vasospasm after subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) in rats.
