Algorithm for the management of subarachnoid hemorrhage–associated hydrocephalus. External ventricular drain (EVD) challenge is generally initiated within 1 week of EVD placement. Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunting is appropriate for patients with persistent hydrocephalus. ICP, intracranial pressure; SAH, subarachnoid hemorrhage.
