What does the decision to limit care early after ICH result in?
The decision to limit care early after ICH may result in self-fulfilling prophecies of poor outcome, and studies show that current outcome prediction models are overly pessimistic because of the failure to account for these care limitations. Providers should therefore be cautious about offering precise prognoses early after ICH, especially if the purpose of prognostication is to consider withdrawal of support or DNAR orders.
