Abstract TP100: Predictors of Skilled Nursing Facility Length of Stay and Discharge after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) carries high morbidity and mortality. Survivors often require extended care at skilled nursing facilities (SNF) or long-term acute care centers (LTAC). Intraventricular hemorrhage (OR 0, 95% CI 0-1.12, p=0.043), tracheostomy (OR=0.14, 95% CI 0.14-1.01, years vs. 70.29.3,

Abstract NS3: Nurse Led Interventions Improve the Timeliness of Blood Pressure Reduction in Patients Presenting With Acute Nontraumatic Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Stroke Journal

Introduction:The 2022 AHA/ASA Guidelines for Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) recommend initiating treatment and lowering blood pressure (BP) within 2 hours of ICH onset and reaching the target systolic BP of 130-150mmHg within one hour of treatment initiation.
