Where this comes from

Abstract

So here's the case: a 41-year-old respiratory therapist comes in with a history of a bad headache, now much better. She looks like a rose in the emergency department. Goes for a head computed tomographic (CT) scan, which shows a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Returns to the department and promptly crashes, needs intubation, and starts posturing. She dies about 1 week later.
