Overview
There are two types of stroke, ischemic and hemorrhagic. Hemorrhagic strokes are less common, only 10-15% of all strokes are hemorrhagic, but they are responsible for about 40 percent of all stroke deaths.[1]
Based on location of the hemorrhage, hemorrhagic stroke may be classified into intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)
Classification
Based on location of the hemorrhage, hemorrhagic stroke may be classified into:
