Twenty-four-hour emergency intervention versus early intervention in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

CONCLUSIONS At a single tertiary academic center, the overall rebleeding rate was 7.6% (95% CI 4.7-10.5) for those presenting with ruptured aneurysms. Implementation of a 24-hour ultra-early aneurysm repair protocol would only result in, at most, a 0.3% (95% CI -0.3 to 0.9) reduction in the incidence of rebleeding.
