Optimal outcome after aneurysmal SAH depends on careful assessment and management of patients throughout the course of hospitalization. Critical care nurses play a crucial role in this process. Efforts continue to understand the cascade of events that lead to cerebral vasospasm an...
متن کاملRisk of Shunting After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Acute aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a critical systemic condition, and survivors of the primary bleed require multidisciplinary neurointensive care. People who survive aSAH carry an increased risk for various complications including epilepsy, depression, cognitive impairment, shunt requirement for hydrocephalus, and shunt complications. Hydrocephalus after aSAH has been reported ...
