*

During the 12-month follow-up, before censorship for death or ICH.

Defined as a change from LMWH to DOAC or vice versa.

ICH ≥10 mL in volume, required surgical intervention, or was associated with symptoms. All the patients with major ICH were symptomatic. One LMWH-treated patient also had ICH volume ≥10 mL.

§

ICH volume ≥1 mL but <10 mL.

||

ICH volume <1 mL or unmeasurable.
