Primary outcomePrimary: Change in Interleukin-1beta Level in Blood (Picogram/Milliliter)

Summary

This study aims to determine whether in-bed cycle ergometry, early in the hospital course after a brain hemorrhage could balance damaging and reparative inflammation in the brain. Inflammatory factors of two groups of patients with brain hemorrhage will be compared, one group will receive in-bed cycling beginning 3 days after hemorrhage plus usual care and the other group will receive usual care only.
