What are the predictors of global cognitive impairment one year after subarachnoid hemorrhage?
Springer et al. (2009) conducted a study to assess the predictors of global cognitive impairment one year after subarachnoid hemorrhage. The study revealed that age, preoperative Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, hydrocephalus, and intraventricular hemorrhage were the independent predictors of global cognitive impairment one year after subarachnoid hemorrhage. The study concluded that age and preoperative GCS score were the most important predictors of global cognitive impairment one year after subarachnoid hemorrhage.
