Traumatic Intracranial Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Clinical Trial
Official title:
Appropriateness of MHS Inter-facility Transfers of Traumatic Intracranial Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Spontaneous Bleeds for Level-1 Advanced Surgical Intervention
Brain injuries are common and challenging problems faced by emergency physicians. These diagnoses may include traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, ruptured cerebral aneurysms, unruptured cerebral aneurysms, and arteriovenous malformations, which require neurological, neurosurgical, and/or endovascular treatment.
Brain injuries are common and challenging problems faced by emergency physicians. These diagnoses may include traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, ruptured cerebral aneurysms, unruptured cerebral aneurysms, and arteriovenous malformations, which require neurological, neurosurgical, and/or endovascular treatment. Depending on the indication and its severity, transfer to a comprehensive stroke center for access to advanced neuro-critical care may be necessary. Comprehensive stroke centers are widely supported and have the resources and infrastructure to have in-house expert stroke providers, teams, operating rooms, and interventional radiology suites that are always available. ;
