Abstract 223: National and Regional Trends in Hospitalizations for Hemorrhagic Stroke after Acute Myocardial Infarction in the United States: 1999-2010 [Poster Session II]

Conclusions: From 1999 to 2010, the overall hospitalization rates of hemorrhagic stroke after AMI were relatively stable without significant changes across all subgroups. Thirty-day mortality rates remained largely unchanged over time. Stroke risk in the stroke belt was not found significantly higher comparing with non-stroke belt states.
