Abstract

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE: Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) often appears as a complication following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), leading to poor prognosis and increased mortality rates. Previous studies have typically developed prediction models based on clinical data alone, without considering that ICH patients often undergo CT scans immediately upon admission. As a result, these models are subjective and lack real-time applicability, with low accuracy that does not meet clinical needs. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a quick and reliable model to timely predict SAP.
