To the experts,
I got forwarded this e-mail that somebody wanted me to post it on the
newsgroup,

>A patient presented with an intraventricular / intracerebral bleed
>in the right posterior horn. source ?AVM. He already had an
>external drain inserted and is currently ventilated. The question
>is that although he remains semi-conscious, he occasionally
>responds when asked to squeeze hand, he remains in extension
>most of the time. What does this mean? Would this be secondary
>to cerebral oedema, or vasospasm, or something permanent?

that's all I was given and if anyone has any opinion or answers to the above
question,
I will much appreciate it.

Regards,

Tony Koo
