External validation for sensitivity of the Ottawa subarachnoid hemorrhage rule in a Japanese tertiary teaching hospital

Abstract The Ottawa subarachnoid hemorrhage (OSAH) rule is a validated clinical prediction rule for ruling out subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Another SAH rule (Ottawa-like rule) was developed in Japan but was not well validated. We aimed to validate both rules by examining the sensitivity for ruling...
