Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Clinical trials aimed at preventing hematoma expansion in patients with intraparenchymal hemorrhage have failed to show benefit from experimental intervention. novel methods for identifying those patients at the highest risk of hemorrhage growth might enable better patient selection and, hence, increase the chance of demonstrating an improvement in clinical outcome.
