Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 1989
To be able to understand and manage the devastating condition of subarachnoid hemorrhage due to ruptured aneurysm, the neuroscience practitioner needs to be thoroughly cognizant of its causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. This article presents a descriptive review and current update of these factors.

Spinal subarachnoid hemorrhage and aneurysms

2017
Spinal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a rare disease. Spinal aneurysms are even rarer and mostly undetected unless they rupture and become symptomatic. In this chapter we aim to review the available literature about spinal subarachnoid hematoma with special emphasis on spinal aneurysms.

Epidemiology of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2010
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a form of hemorrhagic stroke that affects up to 30,000 individuals per year in the United States. The incidence of aSAH has been shown to be associated with numerous nonmodifiable (age, gender, ethnicity, family history, aneurysm location, size) and modifiable (hypertension, body mass index, tobacco and ...

Hypomagnesemia after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Journal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology, 2003
Hypomagnesemia frequently occurs in hospitalized patients, and it is associated with poor outcome. We assessed the frequency and time distribution of hypomagnesemia after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and its relationship to the severity of SAH, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), and outcome after 3 months.Serum magnesium was measured in 107 ...

Treatment of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Archives of Neurology, 1990
In the olden days, the analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was important in clinical neurology. Those were also the early days of neuroradiology, then characterized as the test that cost the most, and told us the least. Practically every patient admitted on the neurology service of the Boston City Hospital (BCH) had both tests performed for there was

Rebleeding After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Neurocritical Care, 2011
Rebleeding after initial aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can have substantial impact on overall patient outcome. While older studies have suggested rebleeding occurs in about 4% of patients during the first day after initial aneurysmal bleed, these studies may have failed to capture very early rebleeds and, consequently, underestimated the ...

Early Management of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Neurosurgery, 1982
Abstract The Lund Clinic serves a population of 1.46 million inhabitants. During the calendar year 1981, 72 patients presented with a ruptured supratentorial aneurysm, diagnosed either at angiography or at autopsy. Upon admission, 60% of the patients were in good condition and 40% were in poor condition.

Management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

2017
Spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) affects people with a mean age of 55 years. Although there are about 9/100 000 cases per year worldwide, the young age and high morbidity and mortality lead to loss of many years of productive life. Intracranial aneurysms account for 85% of cases.

EPIDEMIOLOGY OF ANEURYSMAL SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 1997
An estimated 1% to 5% of adults have a cerebral aneurysm. Each year, approximately 1 in 10,000 North Americans suffer an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, with greater than 50% combined morbidity and mortality. Cerebral aneurysm formation and rupture is associated with a variety of factors, including increasing age, female gender, hypertension ...

Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

1995
In a study from 1950 [1] it was concluded that 60% of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) soon or later die from the lesion, while 20% become permanently disabled and only 20% have a chance of making a good recovery.
