Efficacy of prophylactic levetiracetam for improving functional outcome in the acute phase of intracerebral haemorrhage: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial PEACH 2

intracerebral haemorrhage

Functional status (death or dependency) at 6 months will be measured by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), using ordinal logistic regression, adjusted for the stratification criterion. The mRS score will be measured during a face-to-face or remotely (if needed because of patients’ clinical status) with a standardised guided interview by a certified stroke neurologist or a certified clinical research associate (only remotely) at the 6 month-follow up visit, blinded to the patient study group.
