Resumo
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a bleeding secondary to aneurysmal rupture, collecting blood in the subarachnoid space. Subarachnoid hemorrhage is an emergency and needs immediate medical attention, which makes its diagnostic suspicion fundamental. The diagnostic suspicion will have to be carried out according to the clinic, for which the recognition of the headache warning signs is essential, since in the case of a suspicion of a headache with warning signs, complementary tests will have to be carried out, being of choice the CT scan. The treatment will be mainly endovascular and will require early treatment to improve the prognosis in the patient. In Primary Care level, a good orientation of headache is essential to distinguish between those that are urgent and those that are not.
