Overview
Risk factors for subarachnoid hemorrhage are smoking, hypertension (high blood pressure) and excessive alcohol intake; all are associated with a doubled risk for SAH. Some protection of uncertain significance is conferred by Caucasian ethnicity, hormone replacement therapy, a higher than normal cholesterol and the presence of diabetes mellitus.[1]
Risk Factors
- Cerebral aneurysm
- Cerebral arteriovenous malformation
