Effect of hypertensive agent on regional cerebral blood flow in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate effects of hypertensive agents on regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF)and prognosis in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH). Method Thirty patients withFILCH were divided into group A,B and C according to mean arterial pressure(MAP) with various ranges of <10%, 10 ～ 20%, and > 20%, respectively. Patients of three groups were checked with single photon emissioncomputed tomography (SPECT),and computerized tomography of head successively, 24 hours, 3 ～ 5 days, and 12～ 15 days after admission for the assessment of therapeutic effects. The rtes of the decrease in rCBF compared be-twecn groups were analyzed with t test. Neurologic function defect scale, activities of living scale and number of re-bleeding compared between two groups were analyzed by X2 test, respectively. Results There were statisticallysignificant differences in the rate of the decrease in rCBF. The neurologic function defect scale and activities of liv-ing scale at 24 hours, 3 ～ 5 days, and 12 ～ 15 days after admission compared between group C and group A, andbetween group C and group B showed significant differences ( P < 0.05). There were statistically significant differ-enees in rebleeding during acute phase of HICH between group A and group B or group C (P < 0.05).Conclusions If the systolic blood pressure is above 185mmHg or diastolic blood pressure over 95mmHg,it is ra-tional and safe to lower the MAP by about 15% with hypotensive gents so as to minimize the impact on regionalcerebral blood flow.
