1. Life after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Abstract : Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating disease with mean age of 59 years. SAH accounts for 5% of all stroke and more than one quarter of potential life years lost through stroke. With the advanced neurosurgical methods of today two thirds of the patients survive. READ MORE

2. Short- and long-term outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
Abstract : Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a sudden and devastating event with significant morbidity and mortality. The development of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a major contributor to the observed high morbidity. Prompt detection of these injuries remains a considerable challenge. READ MORE

3. Detection and haemodilutive treatment of cerebral arterial vasospasm and delayed ischaemia after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Haemorrhage
Abstract : This thesis deals with cerebral arterial vasospasm and ischaemia, a serious complication after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage. Firstly is the noninvasive transcranial Doppler ultrasound and transcranial cerebral oximetry techniques evaluated in detecting cerebral arterial vasospasm in clinical practice. READ MORE

5. Aspects on arterial dimensions with special reference to aneurysmal disease
Abstract : The incidence of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is increasing. The risk of rupture is related to diameter. However, rupture may occur also in small AAA. To evaluate the size of an aneurysm when related to the predicted normal aortic diameter might be a better predictor of risk. READ MORE
