Dorsal root entry zone localization using direct spinal cord stimulation: an experimental study.

abstract：:OBJECTIVERebleeding remains a frequent and catastrophic event leading to poor outcome after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Reduced platelet function after the initial bleed is associated with higher risk of early rebleeding. Desmopressin (DDAVP) is a well-known hemostatic agent, and recent guidelines already suggest i...
