Emergency scores work best as structured summaries of already-observed data. ICH Score Calculator applies the implemented thresholds and weights without pretending the number alone makes a diagnosis or treatment decision.

What this calculator does

ICH Score Calculator uses GCS contribution, Age ≥80 contribution, ICH volume ≥30 mL, Intraventricular hemorrhage, and Infratentorial origin to produce the ich score used by this calculator. It only uses the fields shown in this calculator; it does not silently add tests, diagnoses, symptoms, or clinical variables that are absent from the interface. Uses standard health-calculator relationships where a stable equation exists; complex or policy-dependent tools expose assumptions/points so the result can be checked against the current clinical or public-health source.

How to use it

Enter or select GCS contribution, Age ≥80 contribution, ICH volume ≥30 mL, Intraventricular hemorrhage, and Infratentorial origin. Use the actual observations or labs from the assessment time point intended by the score. If an input is unknown, it is better to leave the calculation unresolved than to invent a value.

How the calculation works

The ICH score adds the selected contributions for GCS, age at least 80, hematoma volume at least 30 mL, intraventricular hemorrhage, and infratentorial origin. The implemented maximum is 6.

Example

Using the calculator’s prefilled demonstration values, the primary output is 0 points, labeled “ICH score”; Maximum is 6. That sample is useful for checking the calculation path, but real interpretation should use verified measurements from the same clinical or study context.

How to interpret the result

Read ich score as a structured snapshot of the entered data. The score can support communication or risk stratification, but deterioration, resuscitation needs, clinical gestalt, and diagnoses not represented in the variables can override the numeric category.

Limitations and notes

These tools summarize selected variables at one moment. They can miss rapidly evolving disease, treatment response, contraindications, and diagnoses outside the score. If the patient is unstable or the clinical concern is high, care should never be delayed by a calculator.
