Can Patients be Anticoagulated After Intracerebral Hemorrhage?
Stroke 34:1710-1716, Eckman,M.H.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Survivors of lobar ICH with atrial fibrillation should not be offered long-term anticoagulation. Similarly, most patients with deep hemispheric ICH and atrial fibrillation should not receive anticoagulant therapy. However, patients with deep hemispheric ICH at particularly high risk for thromboembolic stroke or low risk of ICH recurrence might benefit from long-term anticoagulation.
