The Subarachnoid Hemorrhage International Trialists (SAHIT)

The Subarachnoid Hemorrhage International Trialists (SAHIT) Repository is a combined database of many of the most recent clinical trials that have been conducted in subarachnoid hemorrhage.

The aim of this database is to provide a pooled resource from which more representative analyses could be performed that researchers around the world use to plan future clinical trials. This pooled resource will guide clinical trials in subarachnoid hemorrhage as well as aid in the development of prognostic models of subarachnoid hemorrhage. This repository currently contains data on 14,000+ SAH patients from sites all over North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

This project includes individuals from an abundance of backgrounds participating including; St. Michael’s Hospital, University of Toronto (Canada); Heinrich Heine University (Germany); University of Iowa, Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania (United States of America); Oxford University, The General Infirmary, King’s College London (United Kingdom); Medical Center Utrecht (The Netherlands); Chinese University of Hong Kong (People’s Republic of China).
