A member asked:
Could an old man of around 95 be saved if he has brain haemorrhage?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Possible not Probabl: An intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is very serious for any age group. The 30-day mortality for patients with ICH depends on many factors, including age (ref: http://stroke.ahajournals.org/content/32/4/891.full). Although many things are possible in modern medicine, the probability of saving a 95-year old man with an ICH is low, especially taking into consideration his other medical conditions.

Perhaps: It depends on many factors including the size and location of the stroke, his neurologic exam and general health.
