External ventricular drain placement is associated with lower mortality after intracerebral hemorrhage with intraventricular hemorrhage

Table 4 Factors associated with 90-day mortality

Variable	No death within 90 days (n = 1578)	Death within 90 days (n = 908)	p-Value

Previous ICH	10%	11%	0.361
Hypertension	80%	83%	0.079
ICH volume	9 (3–21)	48.5 (17–88)	< 0.001
IVH volume	0 (0–1.4)	7.2 (0–26.9)	< 0.001
Lobar location	46%	48%	0.386
Deep location	43%	39%	0.08
Cerebellar location	8%	6%	0.117
Anticoagulated	19%	28%	< 0.001

Data with normal distribution were shown as mean ± SD. Nominal data were displayed with the prevalence. Ordinal data were shown as median (25–75%)
