Once the diagnosis of nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been made, our job is not done. When is a CT plus CTA of the head indicated up front in the management of patients with suspected subarachnoid hemorrhage? What can we do in the ED to prevent rebleeding in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage?

Taking an anticoagulant, or blood-thinning medication, can increase one's risk of—or exacerbate—a brain bleed, also known as a brain hemorrhage, which is the deadliest type of stroke. Now, new research finds that faster treatment for these patients is associated with a greater likelihood of survival.
