Poor Grade Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Multicentric Study Group
Multicentric registry study in order to define outcome, predictors, treatment effects and their modifiers in poor grade aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage patients. The search for outcome predictors is going to be subdivided into three main research areas: 1. outcome predictors in the emergency department (so called early brain injury phase). 2. outcome predictors in the neurocritical care unit (so called delayed brain injury phase). 3. Treatment strategies. Two other areas of research are identified: delayed cerebral ischemia (incidence, treatment, predictors, impact on outcome) and long term follow-up (recent evidences suggest that there may be a non-negligible proportion of poor grade subarachnoid hemorrhage patients who may benefit from substantial improvement at long-term (after 6-12 months of follow-up).
• Patients admitted to the emergency department because of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage of poor grade (IV-V) according to the WFNS classification.
