Question 1 of 5

The experienced nurse is instructing the new nurse on subarachnoid hemorrhage. The nurse evaluates that the new nurse understands the information when the new nurse makes which statements? Select all that apply.

Correct Answer: A,C,E

Rationale: A subarachnoid hemorrhage is usually caused by rupture of a cerebral aneurysm. Ischemic stroke in older adults, not a subarachnoid hemorrhage, often occurs during sleep when circulation and BP decrease. Irritation of the meninges from bleeding into the subarachnoid spaces causes a severe headache. Thrombolytic therapy with tPA lyses clots and is contraindicated in subarachnoid hemorrhage. Bleeding into the subarachnoid space will cause the CSF to be bloody.
