May support QTc monitoring in severe SAH; leaves open predictive value for outcomes or aneurysm location.
Do specific ECG abnormalities predict poor outcome or relate to aneurysm location in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage?
Specific ECG abnormalities, such as prolonged QTc, LV hypertrophy, and U waves, are associated with hemorrhage severity and specific aneurysm locations in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Lorsheyd et al. (2003) studied this question.
