Bret Michaels -- The odds of Survival

Originally posted 45 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
Bret Michaels doesn't just need good medical attention to survive his current condition -- he also needs luck.

According to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, people who don't receive proper medical treatment after suffering a subarachnoid hemorrhage have a 20% to 30% chance of experiencing a second bleed within the first month -- and the odds of surviving a second bleed are extremely slim.

Cedars states, "Recurrent bleeding has a 70% mortality rate."

Fortunately, Michaels is reportedly being treated in a capable medical center.

However, it appears as though Michaels is already beating the odds -- Cedars reports that roughly 1/3 of people who have a subarachnoid hemorrhage die during the hemorrhage because of extensive brain damage. Obviously, Michaels has already cleared that hurdle.

As for Michaels' treatment, Cedars warns, "Because of the ominous prognosis with delayed definitive therapy, referral to a center of excellence with experience in treating subarachnoid hemorrhage is imperative."

Bret Michaels -- Making An 'Amazing Recovery'

Originally posted May 3rd 2010 12:30 AM PDT by TMZ Staff
Bret Michaels continued to make tremendous progress in his recovery this weekend -- and one source close to the singer tells us the whole thing is nothing short of "amazing."

We're told Bret was "very aware" and in a "good mood" this weekend during an evaluation with a specialist -- the singer was even described as "somewhat talkative."

It's a major improvement from the "critical" state Bret was in after suffering a massive hemorrhage near his brain stem back on April 23 -- a condition that can often be fatal if not treated quickly by experienced professionals.

DwightShrute · 05-04-10, 04:26 PM

good to hear for him and his family!

Bret Michaels Released from Hospital

Bret Michaels has been discharged from the Arizona hospital where he's been receiving treatment after suffering a brain hemorrhage ... this according to the singer's doctor.

During a news conference moments ago, Bret's doc -- Dr. Joseph Zabramski -- said the singer was no longer in critical condition and has recently been released from the Barrow Neurological Institute at St. Joseph's Hospital in Phoenix.

The doc claims that Bret has been moved to a new undisclosed location to continue his recovery.

Dr. Zabramski said a medical team is still monitoring Bret's condition very closely -- and noted the singer is "very lucky" to be recovering so well.

And yes, the picture on the right is a CAT Scan of Bret's brain ... taken on the day he suffered the hemorrhage.
