The SAFIRE grading scale as a predictor of long-term outcome in the Barrow Ruptured Aneurysm Trial

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video features Joshua Caterpillar, a fourth-year resident at the Barrow Neurological Institute, presenting a study titled "The SAFIRE Gradient Scale as a Predictor of Long-Term Outcome for Patients in the Barrow Ruptured Aneurysm Trial." The study focuses on predicting outcomes for patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Factors such as age, aneurysm size, complications, hypertension, and more are considered. The SAFIRE Gradient Scale assigns a value based on these factors to predict long-term outcomes. The study uses data from the Barrow Ruptured Aneurysm Trial to validate the scale's effectiveness. The results show a correlation between higher SAFIRE grades and unfavorable recoveries. PMID: Not provided.
