Death and functional outcome after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. A prospective study of 166 cases using multivariate analysis.

Abstract: Using death and functional status as end points, we prospectively analyzed the outcome 6 months after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage in 166 patients admitted to an acute-care stroke unit on the first day of their stroke. Seventy-one patients (43%) died, 69 (42%) had a satisfactory outcome, and 26 (16%) had a poor functional outcome. Early (30-day) survival was correlated with morphologic parameters on the initial computed tomogram (hemorrhage size, midline shift, and intraventricular spread of the hemorr… Show more

“…" The independent indicators for early death in our study were: pineal gland displacement, a high blood glucose level on admission (8 mmol/l or more), the eye and motor score on the GCS, and the haematoma volume. Some previous studies with multivariate analysis in patients with ICH found other indicators for prognosis, but these determined outcome on discharge,4 at 306 9 results also confirm previous studies about incontinence in patients two weeks after stroke as a predictive factor for one year mortality 23 24 The patients with ICH who survived the first two days had a similar outcome as patients with CI who were matched according to Rankin grade, age and level of consciousness. This similarity applies to the proportion of dependent patients during follow up as well as to the number of patients who died and the causes of death.…”

“…For instance, in a prospective study that included 166 patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH, Daverat and colleagues (22) found that age is the key predictor of functional outcome after ICH in human beings. In this study, Daverat et al (22) showed no significant difference between males and females in the clinical outcome; neither the hemisphere side nor the anatomic localization of the hematoma was estimated as significant variables that contribute to the clinical outcome. All of these results are in good agreement with our Macedonian experience.…”

“…When compared with young rats, ICH in aged rats causes more profound neurologic deficits, autophagy, brain swelling, microglial activation, and induction of heat shock proteins (Gong et al, 2004(Gong et al, , 2011. Age is an important predictor of functional outcome (Daverat et al, 1991), and thus likely to be a significant determinant of brain injury, following ICH in humans. Importantly, aged rats exhibit a different quantitative and temporal inflammatory profile compared with their younger counterparts (Wasserman et al, 2008).…”
