Slower, prolonged coagulation kinetics and weaker clot strength on admission VHA ROTEM testing, not attributable to anticoagulant use, were associated with poor long-term outcomes after ICH. Further work is needed to clarify the generalizability and the underlying mechanisms of these VHA findings to assess whether VHA guided treatments should be incorporated into ICH care.
