Abstract

Purpose: The objectives of this study were to identify interventions and to analyze the characteristics of headaches among hospitalized patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage with moderate or severe headaches. Methods: A retrospective review of the electronic medical records of 210 patients who received treatment for subarachnoid hemorrhage was conducted. Data collection was done using a structured headache record sheet. Data analysis was carried out using the PASW 18.0 version program. Results: There were significant differences in number and duration of headaches of headaches according to the presence of vasospasm, increased intracranial pressure, extraventricular drainage, use of hypertonic solution, and hospitalization period (p<0.05). Patients with vasospasm and extraventricular drainage experienced the most severe headache for a duration of 3 to 7 days. Other patients experienced the most severe headache for around 1-2 days. Conclusion: Hospitalized patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage who had vasospasms experienced more headaches and the duration of these headaches were longer. In particular, the assessment and interventions for headaches should increase and be carried out actively during this time because the intensity of these headaches is severe and lasts for 3-7 days. Additionally, we emphasize the need for regular administration of analgesics in order to promote patients' well-being. On the basis of the results of this study,we suggest that evidence-based interventions for the care of headaches among hospitalized patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage should be developed.
