Pain Management in Aneurysmatic Subarachnoid Haemorrhage: A Survey of Nordic Physicians
ABSTRACT Background Headache caused by aneurysmatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is often severe and may persist long after the ictus. Pharmacological pain management can be challenging due to poor efficacy or adverse effects. Multimodal pharmacotherapy is often required. Lack of guidelines and good quality clinical studies on pain management has led

High Resolution Magnetic Resonance Vessel Wall Imaging: A Valuable Addition to Stroke Work‐Up
ABSTRACT Background Intracranial High‐Resolution Vessel Wall (HRVW) MRI is sometimes used alongside standard ischemic stroke (IS) work‐up, yet its clinical and therapeutic interests remain debated. We aimed to assess the intracranial HRVW‐MRI findings in IS patients and their impact on the IS etiologic classification as well as on treatment ...
