What is the optimal timing for restarting anticoagulation after ICH?
A survival model based on observational data indicated that the total stroke risk (both ischemic and ICH) was lowest when anticoagulation was restarted after about 10 weeks, and a delay of at least 4 weeks after ICH was recommended. However, there are no large-scale RCTs to answer the question of whether long-term anticoagulation has net benefit in ICH survivors with AF.
