Clinical value of intracerebral hemorrhage score

Objective:To assess the value of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) score in clinical practice.Methods:Fifty-three cases of spontaneous ICH patients were evaluated by ICH score and clinical neurologic deficit scale (CNDS) at admission.The association of ICH score with 30-day mortality and neurologic deficit scale was analyzed.Results:The 30-day mortality in patients with ICH score ≥ 3 were higher than those with ICH score<3 (P<0.01).The ICH score was positively correlated with CNDS (P<0.01).Conclusions:ICH score is a simple and reliable method which can accurately predict the clinical prognosis of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.
