  • Vasospasm on admission as defined by angiographic evidence
  • Patients with a coagulopathy that cannot be reversed per the professional discretion of the investigator
  • Thrombocytopenia def. platelet count < 100,000
  • Patients on low molecular weight heparin e.g., Lovenox
  • Patients on Clopidogrel bisulfate (Plavix) or other chronic platelet inhibitors
  • Patients with a documented history of cirrhosis
