“Time is Brain” for SAH 🩸 too! Does the aSAH clock start at the door, or at the first headache? A 7-center cohort from China says the prehospital window is the outcome lever we keep undercounting. 726 adults with aneurysmal SAH. Rapid transfer (to an endovascular-capable hospital in 8 hours or less) vs delayed (after 8 hours): 🚑 386 made it in 8 hours (53%). 340 did not. 🧠 6-month mRS >2: 8% vs 23% (adjusted OR 5.3) 💔 12-month death: 4.9% vs 8.8% (adjusted OR 2.6) ⚠️ Delayed transfer also tracked with more herniation, hydrocephalus, ischemic stroke, and rebleeding Only about half of this network hit the 8-hour window. If your region still treats aSAH transfer as get-there-sometime-today, this is the number to take to the transfer committee. What cutoff does your system actually hit?
