AB - Key summary pointsAimIdentification of predictors of short-term death after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) in the elderly.FindingsThe short-term case fatality (38.7%) after SICH is high in the elderly. Hematoma volume, decreased level of consciousness and functional reserve, but not age per se, increase the risk of short-term death.MessageAge per se should not justify any decision of withholding best treatment in elderly SICH patients. Offering the best acute treatment can potentially improve the clinical outcome.
