Key result
Continuous EEG captures acute subarachnoid hemorrhage with abrupt polymorphic delta slowing and rapid attenuation.
Why the study?
Continuous EEG capture of the moment of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage had not been previously reported.
Case Report (n=1)
No
This is the first reported case capturing hyperacute generalized EEG slowing and attenuation at the exact moment of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
We describe hyperacute generalized EEG slowing and then attenuation captured at the moment of subarachnoid hemorrhage in a monitored patient. This is the first reported cEEG capture of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in the literature.

Burghardt et al. (2016) conducted a case report in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (n=1). Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage was evaluated on Electroencephalographic changes during acute subarachnoid hemorrhage. Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage was captured on continuous EEG, demonstrating an abrupt change to generalized, low-amplitude polymorphic delta followed by rapid voltage attenuation.
