Prognosis of Patients Victim of Spontaneous Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Comparison between Radiologic Scales

Abstract Objective To analyze the population and the early mortality rate (up to thirty days) of patients victim of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) according to the Hunt-Hess clinical scale and the Fisher and modified Fisher radiological scales. Materials and Methods We analyzed 46 medical records and skull computed tomography (CT) scans of patients with spontaneous SAH admitted between February 2014 and December 2017 at Hospital Universitário Evangélico Mackenzie, in the city of Curitiba, state of Paraná, Brazil. The method of the study was exploratory-descriptive, transversal and retrospective, with a quantitative approach. We analyzed epidemiological (gender, age), clinical (life habits, pathologies, Glasgow coma scale and Hunt-Hess scale) and radiological (Fisher and modified Fisher scales) variables, and the Hunt-Hess and the Fisher scales were correlated with risk of death. The data was submitted to statistical analysis considering values of p
