Description

A brain bleed with no aneurysm to blame still shadows most survivors years later, Wouter J Dronkers and colleagues find in a 2026 prospective study from Amsterdam and Zurich. Patients admitted with non-aneurysmal, non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage between 2015 and 2021 answered questionnaires and interviews at a median of nearly five years afterward. One hundred eleven responded, split between perimesencephalic and other patterns.

Forty percent scored at least two on the disability scale, a worse picture than earlier reports suggested. Seventy percent of previously employed patients had fully returned to work, but fifteen percent had not returned at all. Only about a quarter reported no complaints; tiredness and trouble remembering new information led the residual list.
