About this listen

In this AJNR Article Summary, Dr. George Vilanilam discusses the article, "Risk Stratification for Traumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Enlargement and Surgical Intervention: Guides to Follow-Up Imaging in Patients with Trauma." Not all traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhages behave the same - risk factors such as coagulopathy, concurrent intracranial hemorrhage, and low Glasgow Coma Scale scores predict hemorrhage progression and need for intervention. A risk-stratified imaging approach may reduce unnecessary repeat CT scans while focusing surveillance on patients most likely to deteriorate.
