The primary outcome was the 4-point brain relaxation score (BRS) immediately after dural opening (1, perfectly relaxed; 2, satisfactorily relaxed; 3, firm brain; and 4, bulging brain). The secondary outcomes included subdural intracranial pressure (ICP) measured immediately before dural opening; serum osmolality and osmole gap (OG) measured immediately before mannitol infusion (T0) and at the time of dural opening (T\n                      <jats:sub>D<\/jats:sub>\n                      ); changes in serum electrolytes, lactate, and hemodynamic parameters at T0 and 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes thereafter; and fluid balance at T\n                      <jats:sub>D<\/jats:sub>\n                      .\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The time from the start of mannitol administration to dural opening was significantly longer in the early administration group than in the routine administration group (median 66 [IQR 55\u201375] vs 40 [IQR 38\u201345] minutes, p &lt; 0.001).
