Advances and Future Trends in the Diagnosis and Management of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.

Major advances in neurocritical care and the modalities used to treat aneurysms have led to improvement in the outlook of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Yet, several knowledge gaps remain widely open. Variability in practices stems from the lack of solid evidence to guide management, which recent guidelines from professional organizations aim to mitigate. In this article, the authors review some of these gaps in knowledge, highlight important messages from recent management guidelines, emphasize aspects of our practice that we consider particularly useful to optimize patient outcomes, and suggest future areas of research.
