Abstract

Identification of clinical and non-clinical characteristics that might determine outcomes of patients with traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (tSAH) has the potential to enable risk stratification and treatment algorithms for these patients in the emergency department (ED). This study evaluates laboratory characteristics of patients admitted from the ED with tSAH to determine if they had laboratory abnormalities associated with co-morbid neurological injuries (including presence of any of the following: cerebral contusions, cerebral edema, intracerebral hemorrhage, intraventricular hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage, epidural hemorrhage, skull fracture, spinal fractures spinal cord compression) and if those abnormalities were associated with clinical outcomes.
