ABSTRACT
Two hundred and forty-six cases of "subarachnoid haemorrhage" admitted to a general hospital over a five year period (1952-56) are presented, of which 190 were treated "medically" and 56 "surgically". The results are compared. If patients dying within the first 24 hours of admission to hospital are excluded, the comparison between those treated medically and surgically is quite favourable towards "conservatism", confuting the generally quoted figures which usually have a decided bias towards surgery and are too often derived from selected groups. Patients with persisting symptoms and signs, or with a secondary rise in pulse rate and recurrence of signs and symptoms should be promptly investigated by angiography and sent to surgery. Non-ganglion blocking hypotensive drugs should be considered in the hypertensive subject. A plea is made for a more rational approach to the problem, particularly in centres where they are admitted to the wards of a general hospital. (AU)
