Stroke 27:238-242, Berger,K.,et al, 1996
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Interobserver agreement is high for major stroke types as well as for categories of hemorrhagic stroke on the basis of review of medical records and results of imaging data.The classification of ischemic stroke subtypes,however,is subject too substantial interobserver disagreement. Periodic reclassification of random samples of end points might be considered in long-term prospective studies to assess potential misclassification of events by different observers.
