ABSTRACT
Background:
A simple clinical scale of intracerebral hemorrhage, comprising the Glasgow Coma Scale score, age, Infratentorial origin, ICH volume, and Intraventricular hemorrhage, was recently shown to predict 30-day mortality. We studied how well the original ICH Score would predict morbidity and mortality. Materials andmethods:
We did a retrospective study, in which records of all the patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage were reviewed. Components of the ICH Score were recorded along with other clinical characteristics. Outcome was analyzed using modified ranking scale.Results:
The mean age was 69 15 years with 45.4% males and 54.6% females. Common risk factors were smoking, diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Supratentorial lesions were 93.25% and Infratentorial lesions were 6.74 %. The overall 30 day mortality rate for ICH was 29.03%. Important predictors of mortality were, GCS score on admission (P<0.0001), hematoma volume >30ml (P <0.0001), Intraventricular extension (P <0.0001), and ICH score (P <0.0001).Conclusion:
The study shows ICH score is very useful in prognostication. The overall mortality rate with ICH is similar to the previously published studies.
