Introduction: Intracerebral hemorrhage represents approximately 20% of all strokes. In spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage the essential etiological factor is arterial hypertension, and the most frequent site the putamen and lobes of the cerebrum (lobar hematoma). The mortality is higher than in cerebral infarct, although the long-term prognosis is similar.
Development: We review the most relevant forms of presentation and clinical findings of intracerebral hemorrhage in adults, which show a combination of symptoms common to all types of hematoma and those symptoms which depend on their site. We also analyse the factors and studies which have sought to recognize variables predicting morbimortality.

Net Benefit of Early Anticoagulation for Stroke With Atrial Fibrillation: Post Hoc Analysis of the ELAN Randomized Clinical Trial.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Department of Neurology, Inselspital, Bern University Hospital and University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland.
Importance: The net clinical effect of early vs later direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) initiation after atrial fibrillation-associated ischemic stroke is unclear.
Objective: To investigate whether early DOAC treatment is associated with a net clinical benefit (NCB).
Design, Setting, And Participants: This was a post hoc analysis of the Early Versus Late Initiation of Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Post-Ischaemic Stroke Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (ELAN) open-label randomized clinical trial conducted across 103 sites in 15 countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia between November 6, 2017, and September 12, 2022, with a 90-day follow-up.
Patients' views on stroke prevention for atrial fibrillation after an intracerebral haemorrhage: a qualitative study.
Eur J Cardiovasc Nurs
January 2025
Liverpool Centre for Cardiovascular Science, University of Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores University, and Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, Liverpool, UK.
Aim: (i) To explore the attitudes of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) towards oral anti-coagulation (OAC) for stroke prevention post-intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and (ii) to explore factors that influence patients' decision-making process for stroke prevention.
Methods And Results: Patients with documented diagnosis of AF and history of a non-traumatic ICH, who were eligible for long-term OAC were recruited from eight hospitals in England, using purposive sampling. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and analysed using Framework analysis.
Efficacy and Safety of Mechanical Thrombectomy in Distal Medium Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion Ischemic Stroke Patients on Low-Dose Aspirin.
Int J Stroke
January 2025
Neuroendovascular Program, Massachusetts General Hospital & Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) from distal medium vessel occlusion (DMVO) presents unique treatment challenges. Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is emerging as a viable option for these patients, yet the role of pre-stroke aspirin treatment is unclear. This study evaluates the impact of pre-stroke low-dose aspirin on outcomes in DMVO patients undergoing MT.

This review summarizes the current research advances and guideline updates in neurocritical care. For the therapy of ischemic stroke, the extended treatment time window for thrombectomy and the emergence of novel thrombolytic agents and strategies have brought greater hope for patient recovery. Minimally invasive hematoma evacuation and goal-directed bundled management have shown clinical benefits in treating cerebral hemorrhage.

From the University of Miami Department of Neurology (H.B.F., I.R., R.Y., A.A., M.S., Y.H., A.A., C.M.G., V.J.D.B., R.M.S., T.R., H.G., J.G.R., N.A.), Miami, FL, USA; University of South Florida Department of Neurology (D.Z.R. A.J.), Tampa, FL, USA.
Background And Purpose: Endovascular thrombectomy outcomes are impacted by changes in stroke systems of care. During the pandemic, SARS-CoV2 positive status had major implications on hospital arrival and treatment models of non-COVID related hospital admissions. Using the Florida Stroke Registry, we compared the rates of in-hospital death and discharge outcomes of patients treated with endovascular thrombectomy who tested positive for SARS-CoV2 infection during their hospitalization.
