The Hunt and Hess scale, introduced in 1968, is one of the grading systems used to classify the severity of a subarachnoid hemorrhage based on the patient's clinical condition. It is used as a predictor of patient's prognosis/outcome, with a higher grade correlating to lower survival rate. Other scales which describe the clinical presentation of subarachnoid hemorrhage patients include the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies classification, which combines consciousness and motor deficit in its scoring ==Description grade== #Asymptomatic, mild headache, slight nuchal rigidity #Moderate to severe headache, nuchal rigidity, no neurologic deficit other than cranial nerve palsy #Drowsiness / confusion, mild focal neurologic deficit #Stupor, moderate-severe hemiparesis #Coma, decerebrate posturing It gives an index of the mortality associated with the various grades. The mortality is minimum with grade 1 and maximum with grade 5. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hunt and Hess scale」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
