Traumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Demographic and Clinical Study of 750 Patients from the European Brain Injury Consortium Survey of Head Injuries

Abstract

These findings for an unselected series of patients confirm previous reports of the adverse prognostic significance of tSAH. The data support the view that death among patients with tSAH is related to the severity of the initial mechanical damage, rather than to the effects of delayed vasospasm and secondary ischemic brain damage.
