Disparities in the use of seizure medications after intracerebral hemorrhage.
The researchers investigated potential disparities in the use of prophylactic seizure medications in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. They concluded that although multicenter electronic health record data showed apparent racial/ethnic disparities in the use of prophylactic seizure medications, a more complete single-center cohort found the apparent disparity to be confounded by the clinical factors of hypertension and hematoma location.
