The Utilization of Palliative Care for Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Narrative Review

Year: 2026

Type: review

Abstract: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a neurosurgical ailment regarded to possess a high degree of mortality and long-term complications in patients. Despite the abundance of literature on the use of PC for neurological disorders, there remains a gap in the literature examining the use of this care specifically for patients with ICH. Herein, we conducted a narrative review of 30 included studies within the literature to examine the utilization of PC in patients with ICH. Through greater awareness, acknowledgement, and formalized training in PC skills for neurosurgeons, the needs of patients and their families suffering from ICH can be better managed and orchestrated.
