Core Tip

Core Tip: We evaluated the value of tripartite intensive intervention in elderly patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) during their first rehabilitation hospitalization after onset. A tripartite intensive intervention strategy in elderly HICH patients during the convalescent period shortened their hospitalization duration, reduced hospitalization costs, and lowered the rate of rebleeding during hospitalization as well as the overall incidence of complications, including pulmonary infection, pressure sores, central high fever, and deep venous thrombosis.
