Effect of Deferoxamine on Outcome According to Baseline Hematoma Volume: A Post Hoc Analysis of the i-DEF Trial

Hematoma volume (HV) is a powerful determinant of outcome after intracerebral hemorrhage. We examined whether the effect of the iron chelator, deferoxamine, on functional outcome varied depending on HV in the i-DEF trial (Intracerebral Hemorrhage Deferoxamine).A post hoc analysis of the i-DEF trial; participants were classified according to baseline HV (small <10 mL, moderate 10-30 mL, and large >30 mL). Favorable outcome was defined as a...
