Abstract

This study aims to ascertain the causes, clinical findings, and incidence of traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (TSAH) in various age groups, genders, and etiologies (the mechanism of trauma that causes TSAH) in accordance with the severity of trauma as measured by the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS). Finding the TSAH risk factors in the Afghani community is the goal. The incidence of Traumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (TSAH) was determined by doing a meta-analysis and systematic review based on the available data. In order to help different healthcare professionals such as researchers, surgeons, policymakers, caregivers, and patients—identify high-risk individuals, avoid TSAH, and further explore the underlying mechanisms, the study sought to provide pooled estimates. More research is being done to determine the risk factors for TSAH. Previous research has looked at occurrence according to the severity of the trauma based on the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), gender, age groups, and the etiology of the trauma (the mechanism of trauma that causes TSAH). It is vital to comprehend the prevalence of Traumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (TSAH) in order to enhance patient outcomes and lessen the toll that it takes on both individuals and society. Healthcare providers can more effectively customize interventions, treatment programs, and preventive measures for people at high risk for TSAH by recognizing and elucidating these incidences. The results of this study could have a major impact on the creation of mitigation methods for the incidence of trauma-related subarachnoid hemorrhage (TSAH) among Afghani people.
