Precision Monitoring in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Management

Tuesday, March 24, 2026
11:00 AM - 12:00 PM Central Time
Location: W179

This session will explore the emerging role of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in managing patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Speakers will discuss how POCUS can aid in early diagnosis, guide fluid and hemodynamic management, and detect complications such as vasospasm and cardiac dysfunction. Speakers will review current evidence, practical applications, and the integration of POCUS into standard neurocritical care practices.

Learning Objectives:

  • Explore point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) for hemodynamic assessment to guide fluid and vasopressor management in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)
  • Identify POCUS applications for detecting intracranial complications including increased intracranial pressure and hydrocephalus
  • Examine practical strategies for integrating POCUS into neurocritical care workflows for SAH management
  • Discuss future trends and innovations in POCUS technology and their potential to enhance care for patients with SAH

Presentations:

  • 11:05 AM - 11:20 AM Central Time
