Overview

These factors may merit monitoring after subarachnoid hemorrhage; hypothesis-generating for trials targeting correction.

Structured PICO

P
Population
580 patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage enrolled in the Columbia University SAH Outcomes Project between July 1996 and May 2002
O
Outcome
Poor outcome defined as death or severe disability (modified Rankin score, 4-6) at 3 monthscomposite

Fever, anemia, and hyperglycemia are common medical complications after subarachnoid hemorrhage and are significantly associated with mortality and poor functional outcome at 3 months.
