In this prospective observational study, the authors assess the impact of routine transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound monitoring on the diagnosis, management, and outcome of delayed ischemic neurological deficit complicating subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Over a 10-month period 186 patients admitted to a regional neurosciences center were included in the study. Three times a week, routine TCD examinations performed by neuroradiographers made an important positive contribution to the diagnosis of delayed ischemic neurological deficit in 72% of patients with this complication and altered management for the benefit of the patient in 43%. In 9% of patients with recent SAH, it was believed that the outcome might have been better if the TCD result had been acted upon appropriately. The TCD results did not adversely influence management or outcome and were accurate when compared with those obtained on angiography. The authors conclude that a routine TCD service provided by neuroradiographers is accurate and us...
