The Role of VASOGRADE as a Simple Grading Scale to Predict Delayed Cerebral Ischemia and Functional Outcome After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.

Background: The VASOGRADE is a simple aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) grading scale that combines the modified Fisher scale (mFisher) and the World Federation of Neurological Societies (WFNS) grading system, allowing the stratification of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) risk. However, the VASOGRADE accuracy in predicting functional outcomes is still to be determined.

Methods: We retrospectively evaluated a multiethnic cohort of consecutive patients with aSAH admitted to a high-volume center in Brazil from January 2016 to January 2019.

What do Cochrane systematic reviews say about cardiac arrest management?

Context And Objective: Cardiac arrest is associated with high morbidity and mortality and imposes a significant burden on the healthcare system. Management of cardiac arrest patients is complex and involves approaches with multiple interventions. Here, we aimed to summarize the available evidence regarding the interventions used in cardiac arrest cases.
