Ji et al developed a score for predicting functional outcome for patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The authors are from Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, and University of North Carolina.
Patient selection: intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)
Outcome: poor modified Rankin Scale (>= 3) at 1 year
Parameters:
(1) age in years
(2) NIHSS on hospital admission
(3) Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) on admission
(4) glucose on admission in mmol/L
(5) ICH location
(6) ICH volume
(7) extension into ventricles

total score =
= SUM(points for all 7 parameters)
Interpretation:
• minimum score: 0
• maximum score: 16
• The higher the score the worse the functional outcome.

Purpose: To identify a patient who is likely to have a poor functional outcome after an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) using the ICH-FOS score of Ji et al.
