Objective: To study associations of clinical characteristics and treatment choice with functional outcome, mortality, and time to death in a national sample of aneurysmal subarachnoidal hemorrhage patients.
Methods: Data were extracted from a prospective nationwide multicenter study performed in September 2014 to March 2018. Glasgow Outcome Scale Extended (GOSE) grade, 1-year mortality, and survival probability were assessed at one year after ictus.
Introduction: A range of adverse events (AEs) may occur in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Endovascular treatment is commonly used to prevent aneurysm re-rupture.
Research Question: The aim of this study was to identify AEs related to endovascular treatment, analyze risk factors for AEs and how AEs affect patient outcome.
Background: Adverse events (AEs) or complications may arise secondary to the treatment of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). The aim of this study was to identify AEs associated with microsurgical occlusion of ruptured aneurysms, as well as to analyse their risk factors and impact on functional outcome.
Methods: Patients with aneurysmal SAH admitted to the neurosurgical centres in Sweden were prospectively registered during a 3.
Purpose: There is an an increasing awareness of the importance of health and lifestyle for stroke diseases like spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, the importance of pre-existing medical conditions for clinical course and mortality after SAH has not been studied. The aim of the present study was to identify pre-existing conditions contributing to mortality after SAH.
