Trends in Incidences, Treatments and Outcomes of Spontaneous Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Korea Between 2002 and 2022
The total number of patients with spontaneous SAH remained relatively constant, whereas both the ASR and overall crude fatality rate declined. A national shift in treatment modalities was observed, with coiling surpassing clipping and admissions to secondary hospitals exceeding those to tertiary hospitals. Regional disparities in health care utilization were identified, highlighting the need for a locally accountable health care system in health care policy.
