Abstract

The severe complications of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) include cerebral vasospasm (CVS), hydrocephalus and symptomatic epilepsy, which seriously affect the prognosis of patients. In the early stage of these complications, most of the brain’s functions or structure has undergone early or atypical changes. This study describes the applications of electroencephalogram (EEG) and transcranial Doppler (TCD) in evaluation and prediction of SAH complications. It is pointed out that EEG and TCD may contribute to the clinical evaluation and intervention in a timely and effective manner, thus prevent the brain damage after SAH and improve the prognosis of patients with SAH.
