Abstract only Introduction: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most severe subtype of stroke with a high mortality rate and majority of survivors suffering significant disability. The Ethnic/Racial Variations of Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ERICH) study prospectively recruited 1000 white, 1000 black and 1000 Hispanic spontaneous ICH cases. Herein, we report the main results of the predictors of 3 month outcome after ICH. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that ICH Score variables of age, ICH volume, ICH location, presence of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), and presenting Glasgow Coma Scale would predict long-term disability in addition to prior validation of mortality. Methods: Between 2010-2015, cases were prospectively recruited with uniform phenotype definitions, centralized neuroimaging review and with telephone follow-up at 3 months. Apolipoprotein E genotyping was performed centrally. Individual characteristics were screened for association under a logistic regression model, 90-day mRS ≥ 4 versus 0-3, and those meeting P
