Abstract
544 patients who had ruptured aneurysms were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier's method and follow-up study was done by questionaries for the individual patients. Activity of daily life at discharge was well correlated to survival rate. The patients aged under 65 have a good survival rate up to maximal 8 years follow up study, however, the patients aged over 65 have a poorer survival rate especially in the group of ADL 3 through 6. At the end of follow up study, two third of the patients have relation to the hospital as for either in-patient or out-patient.
Not only the operative and postoperative management, but also improvement of activity of the daily life as better as possible is important for the patients with ruptured cerebral aneurysms.
