Description In patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage, symptoms usually begin instantaneously and consist of headache, loss of concentration, and vomiting. These symptoms are caused by the sudden increase in ICP that results when blood rapidly disseminates through the CSF around the substance of the brain. In patients with intracerebral hemorrhage, by contrast, the hematoma develops gradually over minutes or even hours. Rarely (7%), transient neurologic deficits precede intracerebral hemorrhage.
