What is the impact of anticonvulsant use on outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage?
Naidech et al. (2009) conducted a study to investigate the impact of anticonvulsant use on outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage. They found that anticonvulsant use was associated with worse outcomes at hospital discharge, including lower modified Rankin Scale scores and higher mortality rates. Additionally, anticonvulsant use was associated with a higher risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage.
