Summary
A 60-year-old woman presents to the emergency department with a history of “the worst headache of her life.” Paramedics report that although she is presently drowsy, she did briefly lose consciousness in the ambulance. Her blood pressure is 175/80 mm Hg with a heart rate of 60. Her other vital signs are all stable. A CT scan reveals a grade 3 subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The neurosurgical team posts the case as an aneurysm clipping scheduled for the following morning. What are your concerns? How will you evaluate the patient? How will you induce and maintain general anesthesia in this patient?
