Any neuro doctors here..

Can somebody (in simple words) explain to me what the difference between delayed cerebral ischemia and delayed neurological ischemic deficit is.

I know they both develop due to vasospasms after aSAH?

Thank you!

Ohhh wowwwwww I am in AWE OF YOU :smile:

Oh right. My supervisor said something about them being slightlyyyy different and he did explain it but I forgot :frown:
Would you say this book is reliable: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=eKHWDgAAQBAJ&pg=PT103&lpg=PT103&dq=DCI+and+DIND&source=bl&ots=B-QgwD870U&sig=SnjHYfvcl6waI8H3lbj7KQ1FxA8&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwifqbPooKDeAhVEecAKHXpoAQQQ6AEwCHoECAIQAQ#v=onepage&q=DCI%20and%20DIND&f=false

Also would you direct me as to where I can find new books/journal articles talking about using age thresholds for TCDs rather than generic cut-offs?

Thank you again!
