Differentiation Between Traumatic Tap and Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Prospective Cohort Study
BMJ 350:h568, Perry, J.J.,et al, 2015
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
No xanthochromia and red blood cell count <2000x10/6/L reasonably excludes the diagnosis of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Most patients with acute headache who meet this cut off will need no further investigations and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage can be excluded as a cause of their headache.
