New Prediction Models of Functional Outcome in Acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The dICH Score and uICH Score.

ABSTRACT: Objectives: The original intracerebral hemorrhage (oICH) score is the severity score most commonly used in clinical intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) research but may be influenced by hematoma expansion or intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) growth in acute ICH. Here, we aimed to develop new clinical scores to improve the prediction of functional outcomes in patients with ICH. Methods: Patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University with primary ICH were prospectively enrolled in this study. Hematoma volume was measured using a semiautomated, computer-assisted technique. The dynamic ICH (dICH) score was developed by incorporating hematoma expansion and IVH growth into the oICH score. The ultra-early ICH (uICH) score was developed by adding the in
