Improving Outcomes: Early Nursing Functional Evaluation of Patients with Intracranial Aneurysms After Surgery—Preliminary Results

The study indicates that embolisation was associated with better early functional outcomes than clipping. Given the non-randomized treatment allocation, this association may reflect both the procedure type and underlying patient or aneurysm characteristics. The Waterlow score successfully predicted the risk of postoperative complications. The results highlight the importance of early and comprehensive postoperative evaluation to optimize patient care. The results reflect early postoperative recovery (days 1 and 3) and should not be directly extrapolated to long-term functional outcomes.
