Study Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of the observational multicenter trial encompasses the comparison of estimation of the long-term prognosis (functional and cognitive outcomes, quality of life) after intracerebral and subarachnoid hemorrhages assessed by clinical scores, treating physicians and nurses. The scores and the assessment of the treating physicians and nurses are recorded on admission, at 7 and 14 days after symptom onset.
Detailed Description
The physicians and nurses responsible for the individual patient's care will be given a questionaire. They are asked to estimate the functional and cognitive status as well as quality of life of their patient. The patient with intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage is examined and assessed with respective established and validated prognostic scores and models at the same time points.
The actual prognosis is assessed by telephone interview and questionaires at 3 and 6 months, either from the patient or his/her caretaker.
