There were 252 patients, 18% were taking prehospital antihypertensives. Of those 80% received in-hospital CCBs: 35% ≤ 1 hour of arrival, 65% received them > 1 hour of arrival. Patients were similar in their baseline characteristics. The time to in-hospital CCBs was significantly longer for patients who had a vasospasm, 1.3 vs 5.2 h, p=0.02. Those who received in-hospital CCBs ≤ 1 hour of arrival experienced a significantly lower vasospasm rate (0% vs. 38%, p=0.01), LOS (11 vs 22, p=0.006), and death rate (0% vs 38%, p=0.01) than among those who did not. These results were not replicated for patients who were not on prehospital antihypertensives; the timing to in-hospital CCB initiation had no effect on vasospasm (p=0.18), death (p=0.28), or LOS (p=0.08) for patients not on prehospital antihypertensives.
