Brief summary

Traumatic brain injury is common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Incidence and pattern of traumatic brain injury varies in developed and developing countries. Subarachnoid haemorrhage refers to blood in subarachnoid space that lies between arachnoid and piameninges, covering brain. It is often associated with concurrent intracranial injury component. Individuals at higher risk for tSAH are those who are at higher risk for blunt head trauma. This includes adolescents, low-income individuals, men, and individuals with a history of substance abuse. The investigators present study aims to investigate prognostic factors associated with the neurological outcome among patients of post traumatic SAH.
