Improving Outcomes in Intracerebral Hemorrhagic Stroke
Stroke remains a leading cause of death and long-term disability in the United States. Hemorrhagic strokes which result from bleeding in the brain account for just 13% of the nearly 800,000 strokes that occur in the U.S. each year, yet they are responsible for more than 40% of all stroke-related deaths.1 The two primary subtypes of hemorrhagic strokes are intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).
