Prediction of Functional Outcome in Patients With Primary Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Abstract: Background and Purpose-Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most fatal and disabling stroke subtype. Widely used tools for prediction of mortality are fundamentally limited in that they do not account for effects of withdrawal of care and are not designed to predict functional recovery. We developed an acute clinical score to predict likelihood of functional independence. Methods-We prospectively characterized 629 consecutive patients with ICH at hospital presentation. Predictors of functional independence (G… Show more

“…320, 326 The proportion of patients dying, surviving in a dependent or independent state after stroke according to the Rankin score, by age of patient, was taken from the LSR 327,328 and the ESS. 111 A Rankin score of '0-2' indicates independent survival, '3-5' indicates survival in a dependent state, and '6' is dead.…”
