24-Hour ICH Score Is a Better Predictor of Outcome than Admission ICH Score.

Background: The ICH score is a validated tool for predicting 30-day morbidity and mortality in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.

Aims And/or Hypothesis: The aim of this study is to determine if the ICH score calculated 24 hours after admission is a better predictor of mortality than the ICH score calculated on admission.

Methods: Patients presenting to our center with ICH from 7/08-12/10 were retrospectively identified from our prospective stroke registry.
