Relationship between CT characteristics and prognosis in patients with primary supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage / 临床神经病学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the relationship between cranial CT characteristics and prognosis after first-ever primary supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (PSICH). Methods The data of clinic and CT in patients with first-ever PSICH were registered prospectively and followed up for 6 months. The relationship between the prognosis and the clinic data was analyzed using univariate and multivariate Logistical regression analysis.Results (1) The volume of hematoma was an independent CT predictor of death at 1st, 3rd and 6th month. (2) Both the volume of hematoma and secondary ventricular hemorrhage were independent CT predictors of death/disability at 6th month.Conclusions (1)The volume of hematoma can be used to predict death in patients with PSICH.(2)The volume of hematoma and secondary ventricular hemorrhage can be used to predict the death/disability rate of PSICH.
