Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

• The incidence of neurogenic pulmonary edema is approximately 2000 to 42900 per 100,000 individuals in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
• The incidence of neurogenic pulmonary edema is approximately 20000 per 100,000 individuals in patients with traumatic brain injury.

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

• Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage who develop neurogenic pulmonary edema have a higher mortality rate, nearing 10%
