Abstract TP201: Factors associated with development of venous thromboembolism in patients with intracranial hemorrhage.

Stroke Journal

Background:Patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are known to have a higher risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) than patients with acute ischemic stroke, but the factors underlying this difference have not been clearly identified. Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP201-ATP201, February 1, 2025.

Abstract DP49: Time Metrics in Acute Management of Anticoagulant-Associated Acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The Need for Speed

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with poor outcomes in part due to a lack of perceived sense of urgency. HE was defined as per revised criteria (33% relative or 6 mL absolute increase in ICH volume, or new presence or 1mL increase in intraventricular hemorrhage).Results:Among

Abstract WP136: Implementation of a Standardized Timeout Procedure for Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) leads to the highest mortality among stroke patients. Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP136-AWP136, February 1, 2025. ICH expansion causes worse outcomes, especially with anticoagulant-associated ICH. The checklist tracks blood pressure (BP) management and calling a neurosurgery consult.

Abstract WP102: Evaluating Door to Blood Pressure Treatment Goals in Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Stroke Journal

Background and Purpose:2022 Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) guidelines encourage treatment of blood pressure (BP) as soon as possible following identification of ICH. Our academic comprehensive stroke center (CSC) evaluated the initiation of antihypertensive medications and target systolic BP goals for ICH patients.In

Abstract TP256: Comparison of Predictors of Seizure in Angiogram Negative Non-Perimesencephalic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage With Aneurysmal Cases

Stroke Journal

Background:While predictors of seizure in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients have been explored, predictors for seizure in patients with angiogram-negative non-perimesencephalic SAH (an-NPSAH) are less understood. Neither intracerebral hemorrhage nor aneurysm securement modality was associated with seizure.

Etiology of Primary Cerebellar Intracerebral Hemorrhage Based on Topographic Localization

Stroke Journal

BACKGROUND:Cerebellar intracerebral hemorrhage (cICH) is often attributed to hypertension or cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). METHODS:We performed a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with primary cICH admitted to a tertiary academic center between 2000 and 2022.
