Prognostic Value of Serum C-Reactive Protein in Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage: When Should We Take the Sample?

This study suggests that H24-C-reactive protein may be a more reliable marker than initial C-reactive protein in the prediction of mortality in intracerebral hemorrhage. A large multicentric study is necessary to confirm the interest of including H24-C-reactive protein to a modified intracerebral hemorrhage score for the prediction of 30-day mortality.
