Blood Type O Predicts Hematoma Expansion in Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Background: Hematoma expansion after acute spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is well established to result in poor prognosis. Recent studies have demonstrated that the ABO blood type system has potential implications on hemostatic properties. The purpose of this study was to explore the potential association of blood type O with hematoma expansion in patients with ICH and validate the usefulness in predicting early hematoma expansion....
