The self-reported needs of patients following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).

CONCLUSION: Most subarachnoid haemorrhage survivors in both cohorts had unmet needs. Future research should aim to inform the development of post-discharge services to address the persistent long-term needs identified. Implications for rehabilitation Subarachnoid haemorrhage survivors report a number of needs 1-2 years and 3-5 years post haemorrhage. Needs relating to fatigue, memory, concentration, headache and anxiety were the most commonly reported. A large proportion of needs were described as unmet. The design of rehabilitation services for subarachnoid haemorrhage survivors should consider the self-reported needs described in this study. PMID: 30999783 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
