MeSH Heading: Vasospasm, Intracranial
Tree Number(s): C10.228.140.300.900; C14.907.253.951
Unique ID: D020301
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D020301
Scope Note: Constriction of arteries in the SKULL due to sudden, sharp, and often persistent smooth muscle contraction in blood vessels. Intracranial vasospasm results in reduced vessel lumen caliber, restricted blood flow to the brain, and BRAIN ISCHEMIA that may lead to hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HYPOXIA-ISCHEMIA, BRAIN).
Entry Term(s): Angiospasm, Intracranial; Cerebral Angiospasm; Cerebral Artery Spasm; Cerebral Vasospasm; Cerebrovascular Spasm; Intracranial Angiospasm; Intracranial Vascular Spasm; Intracranial Vasospasm
NLM Classification #: WL 355
Previous Indexing: Ischemic Attack, Transient (1966-1999)
