The purpose of this study was to investigate the cases diagnosed as subarachnoid hemorrhage by noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT) after the appearance of symptoms related to headache and paralysis in patients who visited a Korean medicine hospital. A search of electronic medical records of patients diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage on NCCT in W Korean medicine hospital from January 2010 to December 2017 identified five patients. The patients (four women and one man) ranged in age from 64 to 79 years old. Three were inpatients and two were outpatients. Two patients had hypertension, two patients had diabetes, two patients had heart disease, and two patients had a history of cerebral infarction. Development of a cooperative system is needed for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment of this disease in the Korean medicine clinic and for establishment of an NCCT scan application method.
