Abstract
Bleeding often continues beyond the first hour after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and clinical deterioration is due partly to this continued bleeding. Clinical evaluation is thus far the only means for identifying patients in whom bleeding is continuing, but new tools such as near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) may promote early identification of superficial hematomas.
