Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Grading Scales: Something Old, Something Borrowed, Something New, and Silver Sixpence in Our Shoes!
neurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remains one of the most devastating medical problems, with high A mortality and morbidity rates despite advanced surgical and medical interventions. With this rate of mortality, the estimation of outcome of patients with aSAH becomes crucial to create an effective and efficient management strategy. Thus, a standardized scale system to predict the patient’s outcome was needed. To date, various aSAH grading scales have been proposed, but only few commonly were used in the clinical practice. However, none of them have been really completely effective because patients may develop a wide spectrum of clinical signs and overlapping symptoms in each grade.
