Association of social vulnerability and depression incidence post intracerebral haemorrhage: a cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Survivors of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) are at high risk of incident depression, which is modified by social determinants of health (SDOH) and associated with worse functional outcomes. We sought to determine the role of prestroke SDOH in depression incidence after ICH to better characterise post-ICH outcomes.

Study design

We analysed data from a cohort study of ICH survivors without prestroke depression, presenting at Massachusetts General Hospital between 2006 and 2017. We collected information from electronic health records (EHR), follow-up interviews and CT/MRI. The relationship between social vulnerability, air quality and post-ICH depression incidence within 12 months of acute haemorrhage was investigated using logistic regression models that also inclu
