Comparison of scales for the evaluation of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage: a retrospective cohort study.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage is a life-threatening event that causes severe disability and leads to major complications such as delayed cerebral infarction. Accurate assessment of the amount of blood in the subarachnoid spaces on computed tomography with the Hijdra scale can better predict the risk of delayed cerebral infarct. The Hijdra scale could be a good triage tool for subarachnoid haemorrhage patients.
