Outcomes after inter-hospital transfer of intensive care patients with haemorrhagic stroke: a 5-year retrospective review.

Background: Inter-hospital transfer (IHT) of intensive care patients is a limited resource. We assessed the outcomes of patients with haemorrhagic stroke requiring IHT and intensive care and aimed to identify early prognostic factors of poor neurological outcome.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study of patients admitted to a single tertiary intensive care unit (ICU) with haemorrhagic stroke after IHT between January 2014 and December 2018.

Five-year analysis of magnetic resonance imaging as a screening tool in women at hereditary risk of breast cancer.

Introduction: Women at very high risk of breast cancer are recommended to undertake enhanced surveillance with annual MRI in addition to mammography. We aimed to review the performance of breast MRI as a screening modality over its first 5 years at our institution.

Methods: The study used a retrospective review using prospectively collected data from a consecutive series of women at high risk of developing breast cancer undergoing surveillance MRI.
