Mini-puncture hematoma scavenging technique, traditional craniotomy operation, or medicine expectant treatment for patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage / 中华全科医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Two hundred and five patients with hypertensive intracerehral hemorrhage (HICH) received mini-puncture hematoma scavenging technique (MPST; n=80), traditional craniotomy operation (TCO; n=78), or medicine expectant treatment (MET; n=47), respectively. Clinical data demostrated that consciousness level and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) was more obviously improved in the MPST group,while postoperative complication rate was relatively lower. The MPST group and TCO group saw no significant difference in over-all matality, although both were significantly lower than the MET group. Severe disability rate in the MPST group was significantly decreased. In comparison with the TCO or MET group, 1 to 3 class activity of daily life score, language function recovery and response rate in the MPST group significantly improved (all P<0.05). We suggest that because of lower severe disability rate, less postoperative complications, and improved quality of life, MPST should be a better treatment of choice for HICH patients.
