ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of different surgical treatments for hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in older adult patients and their effects on traumatic stress and cerebral edema.Methods:A total of 100 older adult patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage who received treatment in Zhejiang Xin'an International Hospital from January 2018 to June 2020 were included in this study. They underwent either craniotomy (craniotomy group, n = 50) or hard channel minimally invasive puncture drainage (minimally invasive puncture group, n = 50) according to the willingness of patients and their close relatives. Perioperative indexes, Barthel index after treatment, nerve injury indexes before and after treatment, prognosis related indexes, trauma stress indexes and brain edema were compared between the two groups. Results:Operative time, intraoperative blood loss and postoperative hospital stay in the craniotomy group were (147.21 ± 31.35) minutes, (289.74 ± 22.75) mL and (42.74 ± 6.82 ) days, respectively, which were significantly longer or greater than (41.88 ± 7.19) minutes, (4.62 ± 0.88) mL and (16.27 ± 4.02) days in the minimally invasive puncture group ( t = 38.73, 62.17, 23.17, all P < 0.001). Barthel index at 1 and 3 months after treatment in the minimally invasive puncture group was (63.11± 9.64) and (93.51 ± 11.38), respectively, which was significantly greater than (44.78 ± 8.85) and (81.29 ± 10.37) in the craniotomy group ( t = 3.17, 6.21, both P < 0.05). Before treatment, there were no significant differences in nerve injury index, prognosis index, trauma stress index and brain edema between the two groups (all P > 0.05). At different time points after treatment, each indicator in the minimally invasive puncture group was significantly superior to that in the craniotomy group (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Hard channel minimally invasive puncture drainage exhibits advantages over traditional craniotomy in the treatment of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in older adult patients. Hard channel minimally invasive puncture drainage can more greatly reduce injury to brain tissue, better control nerve injury and brain edema, and more remarkably improve patient's quality of life than traditional craniotomy.
