What is the prognosis after a brain hemorrhage? Is recovery possible? Many patients who have experienced a brain hemorrhage do survive. However, survival rates are decreased when the bleeding occurs in certain areas of the brain or if the initial bleed was very large. If a patient survives the...
Subarachnoid bleed:Subarachnoid bleeding occurs in the space beneath the arachnoid layer where the cerebrospinal fluid is located. Often there is intenseheadacheandvomitingwith subarachnoid bleeding. Because this space connects with the spinal canal, pressure buildup tends not to occur. However, this inj...

Prognosis after mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) on oral anticoagulant therapy (OAT) is uncertain. We evaluated the rate of immediate and delayed traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) comparing vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) to direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and the safety of a clinical manage...
