Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a neurological emergency of research interest; however, unlike ischemic stroke, has not been well studied in large datasets due to the lack of an established administrative claims-based definition. We aimed to evaluate both explicit diagnosis codes and machine learning methods to create a claims-based definition for this clinical phenotype.
