Abstract
Prognostic decision-making is an essential task for the clinician dealing with acute stroke. Inadequate decisions may lead to overtreatment and undertreatment. Therefore prognosis should be based on high-quality scientific studies. This chapter reviews and illustrates evidence-based principles of prognostic decision studies in the field of acute stroke. The advantages and limitations of prognostic scores that have been proposed are discussed and the studies that have assessed the prognosis of neurological impairments, mortality, and functional outcome are reviewed. An overview is provided of studies assessing prognosis of intracerebral haemorrhage.
