Evaluating Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Management
This chapter explores the scoring and grading systems used to assess subarachnoid hemorrhage, such as the Hunt and Hess and Fischer scores, which guide patient management and outcomes. The discussion emphasizes critical imaging assessments like CT and CTA to evaluate neurological status and identify aneurysms, alongside the decision-making processes around intubation and hemodynamic stabilization. The chapter also covers the management of complications, including hydrocephalus and hyponatremia, as well as the importance of continuous monitoring and medication management in neurocritical care.
