Abstract TP185: CRP as a Predictor for Hemorrhagic vs Ischemic Stroke

Background: Studies have found an association between elevated serum C reactive protein (CRP) levels and increased ischemic stroke risk 2,4-5 . Other studies have looked at whether CRP levels correlate with outcome and severity after ICH 1,3 . Less research has been done looking at CRP levels and the risk for hemorrhagic stroke. This study aims to confirm the association of baseline elevated serum CRP levels and increased risk for ischemic...
