Predictors for Functional Outcome in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Who Completed In-Hospital Rehabilitation in a Single Institution

Background: Although many studies evaluated independent prognosis factors of functional outcome in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) at a suitable time point, some patients take a long time to get functional improvement. The purpose of this study is to evaluate predictors for functional outcome in SAH patients who underwent surgical clipping and in-hospital rehabilitation in our single institution using Modified Rankin Scale (MRS) and Barthel Index (BI). Methods: Two-hundred fifty-one SAH patients were admitted to our hospital from January 2008 to December 2017.
