ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The prognosis of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is often influenced by hematoma volume, a well-established predictor of poor outcome. However, the optimal intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) volume cutoff for predicting poor outcome remains unknown. METHODS: We analyzed 313 patients with spontaneous ICH not undergoing evacuation, including 7 cases with external ventricular drainage (EVD). These patients underwent a baseline CT scan, followed by a 24-hour CT scan for measurement of both hematoma and IVH volume. We defined hematoma growth as hematoma growth > 33 % or 6 mL at follow-up CT, and poor outcome as modified Rankin Scale score≥3 at three months. Cutoffs with optimal sensitivity and specificity for predicting poor outcome were identified using receiver operating curves. RESULTS: The receiver operating characteristic analysis identified 6 mL as the optimal cutoff for predicting poor outcome. IVH volume> 6 mL was observed in 53 (16.9 %) of 313 patients. Patients with IVH volume>6 mL were more likely to be older and had higher NIHSS score and lower GCS score than those without. IVH volume>6 mL (adjusted OR 2.43, 95 % CI 1.13-5.30; P = 0.026) was found to be an independent predictor of poor clinical outcome at three months in multivariable regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS: Optimal IVH volume cutoff represents a powerful tool for improving the prediction of poor outcome in patients with ICH, particularly in the absence of clot evacuation or common use of EVD. Small amounts of intraventricular blood are not independently associated with poor outcome in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. The utilization of optimal IVH volume cutoffs may improve the clinical trial design by targeting ICH patients that will obtain maximal benefit from therapies.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence and factors associated with early cognitive impairment in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients and to describe short-term recovery trajectories among ICH patients with early cognitive impairment. METHODS: We prospectively enrolled ICH patients without baseline dementia in our institutions. Cognitive function was assessed using mini-mental state examination (MMSE), and functional outcome was evaluated at discharge, 3, and 6 months after symptoms onset using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). We used multinomial logistic regression models to investigate potential risk factors and generalized linear models to analyze the functional outcome data. RESULTS: Out of 181 patients with ICH, 167 were included in the final analysis. Early cognitive impairment occurred in 60.48% of patients with ICH. Age (odds ratio [OR] per 1-year increase, 1.037; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.003-1.071; p = 0.034), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (OR per 1-point increase, 1.146; 95% CI, 1.065-1.233; p < 0.001) and lobar ICH location (OR, 4.774; 95% CI, 1.810-12.593; p = 0.002) were associated with early cognitive impairment in ICH patients. Patients with ≥10 years of education were less likely to experience early cognitive impairment (OR, 0.323; 95% CI, 0.133-0.783; p = 0.012). Participants with early cognitive impairment had a higher risk of poor outcome (OR, 4.315; 95% CI, 1.503-12.393; p = 0.005) than those without. Furthermore, there was a significantly faster functional recovery rate for those without early cognitive impairment compared with those with at 3 and 6 months (p < 0.05). INTERPRETATION: Early cognitive impairment was prevalent and associated with poor outcomes in ICH patients, which decelerated short-term functional recovery.
