The ICH score results range from 0 to 6, with higher scores being associated with higher predicted mortality risk. The predicted 30 day mortality is 13% for an ICH score of 1, 26% for score of 2, 72% for a score of 3, 97% for a score of 4, and 100% for a score of 5. In the initial cohort, no patient with an ICH score of 0 died and none had a score of 6.
