Implication
ECG changes may flag higher-risk aSAH patients; leaves open whether serial monitoring improves prognostication beyond clinical scores.
Structured PICO

P
Population
61 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

Intervention
Serial electrocardiographic recording
O
Outcome
Outcome after 3 monthshard clinical
Electrocardiographic abnormalities in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage reflect adverse intracranial factors and may independently predict poor outcome at 3 months.
