Summary
All patients with acute aneurysmal hemorrhage are treated in accordance with our
institutional protocol. After securing of the aneurysm, some smokers with acute aneurysmal
hemorrhage are randomly assigned to transdermal nicotine replacement (NRT). The short- and
long-term effect of NRT will be studied comparing non-smokers, smokers without NRT and
smokers with NRT.
