NCT01472224

Brief Summary

This study investigates the ability of ultrasound to measure the volume of a brain hemorrhage in the acute phase after hospital admission. It is known that approximately 30% of patients admitted with a brain hemorrhage will suffer from enlargement of the hematoma within the first hours after admission. In this study the investigators measure the volume of the hematoma every 30 minutes up to 6 hours after admission and every 2 hours between 6-12 hours.
