Association of the ICH Score With Withdrawal of Life‐Sustaining Treatment Over a 10‐Year Period
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) score was developed to enhance provider communication and facilitate early severity assessment. We examined the association of the ICH score with mortality and withdrawal of life‐sustaining treatment (WLST) in a large, multicenter stroke registry, and evaluated temporal trends in these associations.
