1. Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is bleeding into the subarachnoid space between the brain's outermost layers caused by a ruptured aneurysm in 70% of cases. 2. Presentation includes sudden severe headache, reduced consciousness, vomiting, neck stiffness, and seizures. Investigations include CT scan and lumbar puncture to detect blood. 3. Treatment aims to prevent rebleeding through securing the aneurysm via coiling or clipping, and managing complications like hydrocephalus, vasospasm, seizures, and hyponatremia which can occur in the weeks following SAH.
