Baseline perihematomal edema, C-reactive protein, and 30-day mortality are not associated in intracerebral hemorrhage. Front Neurol 2024; 15:1359760. [PMID: 38645743 PMCID: PMC11026700 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2024.1359760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The relationship between baseline perihematomal edema (PHE) and inflammation, and their impact on survival after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are not well understood. Objective Assess the association between baseline PHE, baseline C-reactive protein (CRP), and early death after ICH. Methods Analysis of pooled data from multicenter ICH registries. We included patients presenting within 24 h of symptom onset, using multifactorial linear regression model to assess the association between CRP and edema extension distance (EED), and a multifactorial Cox regression model to assess the association between CRP, PHE volume and 30-day mortality. Results We included 1,034 patients. Median age was 69 (interquartile range [IQR] 59-79), median baseline ICH volume 11.5 (IQR 4.3-28.9) mL, and median baseline CRP 2.5 (IQR 1.5-7.0) mg/L. In the multifactorial analysis [adjusting for cohort, age, sex, log-ICH volume, ICH location, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), statin use, glucose, and systolic blood pressure], baseline log-CRP was not associated with baseline EED: for a 50% increase in CRP the difference in expected mean EED was 0.004 cm (95%CI 0.000-0.008, p = 0.055). In a further multifactorial analysis, after adjusting for key predictors of mortality, neither a 50% increase in PHE volume nor CRP were associated with higher 30-day mortality (HR 0.97; 95%CI 0.90-1.05, p = 0.51 and HR 0.98; 95%CI 0.93-1.03, p = 0.41, respectively). Conclusion Higher baseline CRP is not associated with higher baseline edema, which is also not associated with mortality. Edema at baseline might be driven by different pathophysiological processes with different effects on outcome.

Direct Oral Anticoagulants: An Updated Systematic Review of Their Clinical Pharmacology and Clinical Effectiveness and Safety in Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation. J Clin Pharmacol 2023; 63:383-396. [PMID: 36433678 DOI: 10.1002/jcph.2184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Direct oral anticoagulants have been an increasingly used class of drugs in the setting of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, defying vitamin K antagonists' monopoly when it comes to anticoagulation due to its several limitations. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have entered the market as a noninferior and safer option in comparison with vitamin K antagonists, as their respective phase III clinical trials proved. The aim of this article was to update and summarize data on their clinical pharmacology and to review real-world data to know their comparative effectiveness and safety. We performed a systematic review using PubMed, Google Scholar, Embase, and Web of Science as search engines. Regarding pharmacodynamics, there were no substantial changes reported from their original profile. There were many advances in the knowledge about clinical pharmacokinetics of DOACs that have had a direct impact on their clinical use, mainly related to drug-drug interactions. In a real-world setting, DOACs have shown to be noninferior in preventing thromboembolic events compared to vitamin K antagonists. In regards to safety, DOACs have shown a lower bleeding risk relative to warfarin. Comparison between DOACs has demonstrated rivaroxaban to have the highest bleeding risk. Overall, the evidence gathered showed few changes from the original data presented in phase III clinical trials, concluding that their real-world use coincides greatly with them.

Meta-analysis of haematoma volume, haematoma expansion and mortality in intracerebral haemorrhage associated with oral anticoagulant use. J Neurol 2019; 266:3126-3135. [PMID: 31541341 PMCID: PMC6851029 DOI: 10.1007/s00415-019-09536-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2019] [Revised: 09/05/2019] [Accepted: 09/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To obtain precise estimates of age, haematoma volume, secondary haematoma expansion (HE) and mortality for patients with intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) taking oral anticoagulants [Vitamin K antagonists (VKA-ICH) or non-Vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOAC-ICH)] and those not taking oral anticoagulants (non-OAC ICH) at ICH symptom onset. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing VKA-ICH or NOAC-ICH or both with non-OAC ICH. Primary outcomes were haematoma volume (in ml), HE, and mortality (in-hospital and 3-month). We calculated odds ratios (ORs) using the Mantel-Haenszel random-effects method and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) and determined the mean ICH volume difference. RESULTS We identified 19 studies including data from 16,546 patients with VKA-ICH and 128,561 patients with non-OAC ICH. Only 2 studies reported data on 4943 patients with NOAC-ICH. Patients with VKA-ICH were significantly older than patients with non-OAC ICH (mean age difference: 5.55 years, 95%CI 4.03-7.07, p < 0.0001, I2 = 92%, p < 0.001). Haematoma volume was significantly larger in VKA-ICH with a mean difference of 9.66 ml (95%CI 6.24-13.07 ml, p < 0.00001; I2 = 42%, p = 0.05). HE occurred significantly more often in VKA-ICH (OR 2.96, 95%CI 1.74-4.97, p < 0.00001; I2 = 65%). VKA-ICH was associated with significantly higher in-hospital mortality (VKA-ICH: 32.8% vs. non-OAC ICH: 22.4%; OR 1.83, 95%CI 1.61-2.07, p < 0.00001, I2 = 20%, p = 0.27) and 3-month mortality (VKA-ICH: 47.1% vs. non-OAC ICH: 25.5%; OR 2.24, 95%CI 1.52-3.31, p < 0.00001, I2 = 71%, p = 0.001). We did not find sufficient data for a meta-analysis comparing NOAC-ICH and non-OAC-ICH. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis confirms, refines and expands findings from prior studies. We provide precise estimates of key prognostic factors and outcomes for VKA-ICH, which has larger haematoma volume, increased rate of HE and higher mortality compared to non-OAC ICH. There are insufficient data on NOACs.

Predictive ability of admission neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio on short-term outcome in patients with spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhage. Medicine (Baltimore) 2019; 98:e16120.

Abstract
As one of the prototypical intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhage (SCH) is treated with different strategies by comparing with supratentorial hemorrhage (SH). Additionally, SCH patients usually suffer from worse prognosis than patients with other types of ICH. It is well documented that the unique anatomic structures of posterior cranial fossa lead to a higher risk for brainstem compression and/or brain edema in SCH patients. Recently, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was reported to possess an excellent predictive ability for the prognosis of patients with ICH, and most of those cases are SH. Thus, the potential association between NLR and the prognosis of SCH patients remains to be elucidated. Here, we aim to assess the predictive role of admission NLR and other available inflammatory parameters for the outcomes of patients with SCH.All patients with acute SCH admitting to West China Hospital from February 2010 to October 2017 were retrospectively enrolled. According to the absolute neutrophil count, absolute lymphocyte count, white blood count and absolute monocyte count extracted from electronic medical records, NLR was calculated. The multivariable logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze the associations between disease outcome and laboratory biomarkers. The comparisons of predictive powers of each biomarker were assessed by receiver operating curves (ROCs). The spearman analyses and multiple linear analyses were also conducted to identify the independent predictors for admission NLR.Admission NLR independently associated with 30-day status (odds ratio [OR] 1.785, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.463-2.666, P <.01) and exhibited a better predictive value (AUC 0.751, 95% CI 0.659-0.830, P <.001) with the best predictive cutoff point of 7.04 in 62 patients with unfavorable outcomes. Moreover, absolute neutrophil count, absolute lymphocyte count, presence of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score were also correlated with admission NLR, respectively.Admission NLR is a potential marker to independently predict the 30 days functional outcome of SCH patients. Based on our results, systemic inflammation in admission might be considered as an important player in participating the pathological process of patients with SCH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study hematoma location and morphology of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) associated with oral anticoagulants (OAC) and delineate causes and mechanism. METHODS We performed a systematic literature research and meta-analysis of studies comparing neuroimaging findings in patients with OAC-ICH compared to those with ICH not associated with OAC (non-OAC ICH). We calculated pooled risk ratios (RRs) for ICH location using the Mantel-Haenszel random-effects method and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). RESULTS We identified 8 studies including 6,259 patients (OAC-ICH n = 1,107, pooled OAC-ICH population 17.7%). There was some evidence for deep ICH location (defined as ICH in the thalamus, basal ganglia, internal capsule, or brainstem) being less frequent in patients with OAC-ICH (OAC-ICH: 450 of 1,102/40.8% vs non-OAC ICH: 2,656 of 4,819/55.1%; RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.88-1.00, p = 0.05, I 2 = 0%) while cerebellar ICH location was significantly more common in OAC-ICH (OAC-ICH: 111 of 1,069/10.4% vs non-OAC ICH: 326 of 4,787/6.8%; RR 1.45, 95% CI 1.12-1.89, p = 0.005, I 2 = 21%) compared to non-OAC ICH. There was no statistically significant relationship to OAC use for lobar (OAC-ICH: 423 of 1,107/38.2% vs non-OAC ICH: 1,884 of 5,152/36.6%; RR 1.02, 95% CI 0.89-1.17, p = 0.75, I 2 = 53%, p for heterogeneity = 0.04) or brainstem ICH (OAC-ICH: 36 of 546/6.6% vs non-OAC ICH: 172 of 2,626/6.5%; RR 1.04, 95% CI 0.58-1.87, p = 0.89, I 2 = 59%, p for heterogeneity = 0.04). The risk for intraventricular extension (OAC-ICH: 436 of 840/51.9% vs non-OAC ICH: 1,429 of 3,508/40.7%; RR 1.26, 95% CI 1.16-1.36, p < 0.001, I 2 = 0%) was significantly increased in patients with OAC-ICH. We found few data on ICH morphology in OAC-ICH vs non-OAC ICH. CONCLUSION The overrepresentation of cerebellar ICH location and intraventricular extension in OAC-ICH might have mechanistic relevance for the underlying arteriopathy, pathophysiology, or bleeding pattern of OAC-ICH, and should be investigated further.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most disastrous stroke subtype. Prognosis is considered worse with prior antithrombotic treatment. Our aim was to evaluate the association of prior antithrombotic treatment on the radiological and clinical outcome after ICH in a subgroup of patients included in a national registry. METHODS Based on the National Acute Stroke Israeli (NASIS) registry during 2004, 2007, 2010, and 2013 (2-month periods), characteristics, volumetric parameters, and prognosis of a subgroup of patients with ICH were analyzed. RESULTS Among the 634 patients with ICH in the NASIS registry, 310 (49%) were not treated previously with antithrombotic medications, 232 (37%) were treated with an antiplatelet agent, and 92 (14.5%) patients were on oral anticoagulant therapy, of them 30 patients (33%) with an international normalised ratio (INR) value below 2, 33 (36%) patients with an INR value of 2-3, and 29 patients (31%) with an INR value above 3 upon admission. Patients with deep hemorrhage on prior anticoagulants treatment had the highest probability for poor outcome at hospital discharge. Patients with low bleeding volume (0-30 cm3), were likely to have admission National Institute of Health Stroke Scale < 10 (62%), while those with higher volumes (30-59 cm3 and > 60 cm3), had only 16.7% and 14.3% chance, respectively. We did not observe a significant difference between prior antithrombotic treatment and functional outcome at discharge, yet prior anticoagulant treatment was associated with higher long-term mortality rates. CONCLUSIONS Our findings, based on a national registry, support the high mortality and poor outcome of anticoagulant related ICH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Hematoma expansion is an independent determinant of poor clinical outcome in intracerebral hemorrhage. Although the "spot sign" predicts hematoma expansion, the identification requires CT angiography, which limits its general accessibility in some hospital settings. Noncontrast CT, without the need for CT angiography, may identify sites of active extravasation, termed the "swirl sign." We aimed to determine the association of the swirl sign with hematoma expansion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage between 2007 and 2014 who underwent an initial and subsequent noncontrast CT at a single center were retrospectively identified. The swirl sign, on noncontrast CT, was defined as iso- or hypodensity within a hyperdense region that extended across 2 contiguous 5-mm axial CT sections. RESULTS A total of 212 patients met the inclusion criteria. The swirl sign was identified in 91 patients with excellent interobserver agreement (κ = 0.87). The swirl sign was associated with larger initial hematoma (P < .001) and earlier initial CT (P < .001) and hematoma expansion (P = .028). Multivariable regression modeling demonstrated that if one assumed similar initial hematoma volume, onset-to-first scan, and time between CT scans, the median absolute hematoma growth was 5.77 mL (95% CI, 2.37-9.18 mL; P = .001) and relative growth was 35.6% (95% CI, 18.5%-52.6%; P < .001) higher in patients with the swirl sign compared with those without. CONCLUSIONS The NCCT swirl sign was reliably identified and is associated with hematoma expansion. We propose that the swirl sign be included in risk stratification of intracerebral hemorrhage and considered for inclusion in clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Simultaneous multiple intracerebral hemorrhages (SMICHs) are uncommon. Few single-center studies have analyzed characteristics and outcome of SMICH. We analyzed clinical characteristics and outcome of SMICH patients from 2 comprehensive stroke centers. METHODS Baseline imaging from consecutive intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients (n=1552) from Helsinki ICH study and Royal Melbourne Hospital ICH study was screened for SMICH. ICH pathogenesis was classified according to the structural lesion, medication, amyloid angiopathy, systemic/other disease, hypertension, undetermined classification system (SMASH-U). ICH caused by trauma, tumor, and aneurysmal rupture was excluded. Baseline clinical and radiological characteristics and 90-day mortality were compared between SMICH and single ICH patients. Association of SMICH with 90-day mortality was assessed in multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for predictors of ICH outcome. RESULTS Of 1452 patients, 85 (5.9%) were classified as SMICH. SMICH were more often female (58% versus 42%; P=0.004), had lower baseline Glasgow Coma Scale (12 versus 14; P=0.008), and more frequent lobar location (59% versus 34%; P<0.001) compared with single ICH. The SMASH-U pathogenesis of SMICH patients was less often hypertensive (20% versus 37%; P=0.001), more often systemic coagulopathy (12% versus 3%; P<0.001), and trended toward more cerebral amyloid angiopathy (32% versus 23%; P=0.071). SMICH was not associated with 90-day mortality on univariate (37% versus 35%; P=0.610), multivariable (odds ratio, 0.783; 95% confidence interval, 0.401-1.529; P=0.473), or propensity score-matched analyses (odds ratio, 0.760; 95% confidence interval, 0.352-1.638; P=0.484). CONCLUSIONS SMICH occurs in ≈1 in 20 ICH, more commonly with lobar located hematomas and systemic coagulopathy with less hypertensive angiopathy. The associated mortality is similar to single ICH. Given varied etiologies, SMICH management should target the underlying pathology.

Abstract
Background Cerebellar hemorrhage (CH) has a quite different treatment strategy and prognostic factors compared with supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The prognostic role of hyperglycemia has been discussed mainly in cases of supratentorial hemorrhage; it remains to be elucidated following CH. We aimed to determine the association of hyperglycemia on admission with 6-month functional outcome in CH patients. Material/Methods We retrospectively analyzed 77 patients with acute CH between September 2010 and April 2015 in West China Hospital. Blood glucose level was measured when the patients were admitted. Primary outcome was 6-month functional outcome, which could comprehensively reflect the patient’s recovery of physical and social ability after stroke and was assessed by the modified Rankin scale (mRS). Association of hyperglycemia with functional outcome was identified in logistic regression models. Results There were 50 (64.9%) patients with poor functional outcomes. Patients with poor outcome were much older (P<0.001) and had a significantly higher glucose level on admission (P<0.001), a lower Glasgow Coma Scale score (P<0.001), a larger hematoma (P=0.003), and a higher incidence of intraventricular extension (P=0.002), brainstem compression (P=0.013), and hydrocephalus (P=0.023). Multivariate analysis showed that hyperglycemia (OR 1.50, 95% CI 1.07–2.08, P=0.017 when glucose level was analyzed as a continuous variable; OR 7.46, 95% CI 1.41–39.51, P=0.018 when glucose level was dichotomized by the critical threshold of 6.78 mmol/L) emerged as an independent predictor for adverse functional outcome at 6 months. Conclusions To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study focusing on the relationship between hyperglycemia and long-term functional outcome after CH. The study combined with previous pertinent reports definitely indicates the poor effect of hyperglycemia on both supra- and infratentorial ICH independent of hemorrhage site. Therefore, further controlled trials are urgently needed to evaluate the benefits of glucose-lowing treatment.

Abstract
Introduction Few proven therapies for intracerebral haemorrhage exist. Preliminary observational evidence suggests that sulphonylurea and metformin may be protective in ischaemic stroke. We assessed the association of pre-intracerebral haemorrhage sulphonylurea and metformin use on outcome in diabetic patients. Methods We merged datasets from the consecutive single-centre Helsinki ICH Study, the intracerebral haemorrhage arm of the Virtual International Stroke Trials Archive (VISTA-ICH) and the Royal Melbourne Hospital ICH Study. Logistic regression adjusting for known predictors of intracerebral haemorrhage outcome (age, sex, baseline Glasgow Coma Scale, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, intracerebral haemorrhage volume, infratentorial location, intraventricular extension, and pre-intracerebral haemorrhage warfarin use) estimated the association of metformin and sulphonylurea with all-cause 90-day mortality. Results From a dataset of 2404 consecutive intracerebral haemorrhage patients, we included 374 (16%) patients with diabetes. Of these, 113 (30%) died by 90 days. Metformin was used in 148 (40%) patients and sulphonylurea in 115 (31%) patients at intracerebral haemorrhage onset. After adjusting for baseline characteristics, metformin use was associated with lower 90-day mortality (OR 0.51; 95% CI 0.26-0.97; p = 0.041) irrespective of whether the drug was continued or not during the admission, while sulphonylurea use was not associated with mortality (OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.49-1.88; p = 0.906). Haematoma location or evacuation did not modify the association between metformin and mortality; neither did adding insulin use, baseline glucose and serum creatinine into the model (OR 0.50; 95% CI 0.25-0.99; p = 0.047). Conclusion Pre-intracerebral haemorrhage metformin use was associated with improved outcome in diabetic intracerebral haemorrhage patients. Our results generate hypotheses which after further validation could be tested in clinical trials.

Abstract
Anemia and bleeding are paramount concerns in neurocritical care and often relate to the severity of intracranial hemorrhage. Anemia is generally associated with worse outcomes, and efforts to minimize anemia through reduced volume of blood sampled are encouraged. Point-of-care-testing reliably detects the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that may worsen bleeding and reduce platelet activity, particularly in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. How best to monitor the effect of platelet transfusion or platelet-activating therapy is not well studied. For patients known to take novel oral anticoagulants, drug-specific coagulation tests before neurosurgical intervention are prudent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (VKA-OACs) are effective for primary and secondary prevention of embolic events. The rate of haemorrhagic neurological complications in patients admitted to neurology departments in Spain is not yet known. AIMS We aimed to determine the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of patients with intracranial haemorrhage secondary to VKA-OACs as well as the incidence of this severe complication. METHODS We conducted a retrospective, descriptive, multi-centre study using information from the medical records of all patients admitted to neurology departments, diagnosed with spontaneous intracranial haemorrhage, and treated with VKA-OACs within a 1-year period. We collected demographic and care data from centres, patients' medical records [demographic data, medical history, haemorrhage origin, vascular risk factors, concomitant treatment, and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores], and patients' outcome at 3 months [independence (modified Rankin Scale score <3) and mortality rate]. RESULTS Twenty-one hospitals serving a population of 8,155,628 inhabitants participated in the study. The total number of cases was 235, the mean age was 78.2 (SD 9.4) years, and the baseline NIHSS score was 11.6 (SD 9.5; median 9; interquartile range 14). The VKA-OACs used were acenocoumarol in 95.3% (224 patients) and warfarin in 4.7% (11 patients). The haemorrhage origin was deep in 29.8%, lobar in 25.5%, intraventricular in 11.5%, extensive in 17.4% (>100 ml), cerebellar in 12.3%, and in the brainstem in 3.4%. The international normalised ratio was within therapeutic ranges at admission (according to indication) in 29.4% (69 patients). The global incidence (cases per 100,000 inhabitants per year) is 2.88. The in-hospital mortality rate was 40%, and 24.3% of the patients were independent at 3 months, while the mortality at 3 months was 42.6%. CONCLUSION VKA-OAC treatment is associated with a large percentage of all cases of spontaneous intracranial haemorrhage, an event leading to high dependence and mortality rates.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is little evidence to guide treatment strategies for intracerebral hemorrhage on vitamin K antagonists (VKA-ICH). Treatments utilized in clinical practice include fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC). Our aim was to compare case fatality with different reversal strategies. METHODS We pooled individual ICH patient data from 16 stroke registries in 9 countries (n = 10 282), of whom 1,797 (17%) were on VKA. After excluding 250 patients with international normalized ratio < 1.3 and/or missing data required for analysis, we compared all-cause 30-day case fatality using Cox regression. RESULTS We included 1,547 patients treated with FFP (n = 377, 24%), PCC (n = 585, 38%), both (n = 131, 9%), or neither (n = 454, 29%). The crude case fatality and adjusted hazard ratio (HR) were highest with no reversal (61.7%, HR = 2.540, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.784-3.616, p < 0.001), followed by FFP alone (45.6%, HR = 1.344, 95% CI = 0.934-1.934, p = 0.112), then PCC alone (37.3%, HR = 1.445, 95% CI = 1.014-2.058, p = 0.041), compared to reversal with both FFP and PCC (27.8%, reference). Outcomes with PCC versus FFP were similar (HR = 1.075, 95% CI = 0.874-1.323, p = 0.492); 4-factor PCC (n = 441) was associated with higher case fatality compared to 3-factor PCC (n = 144, HR = 1.441, 95% CI = 1.041-1.995, p = 0.027). INTERPRETATION The combination of FFP and PCC might be associated with the lowest case fatality in reversal of VKA-ICH, and FFP may be equivalent to PCC. Randomized controlled trials with functional outcomes are needed to establish the most effective treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES For patients with non-traumatic pontine hemorrhage (PH) who will survive, determining prognosis is vital for appropriate therapeutic planning in the acute stage. This study aimed to determine reliable prognostic factors of mortality in patients with PH. MATERIALS AND METHODS The cases of a total of 118 consecutive PH patients were reviewed. We compared clinical and radiological characteristics between patients who died and survivors by the log-rank test and performed multivariate analysis by the Cox proportional hazards model using variables that were marginally or significantly associated with PH-related death on the log-rank test (P < 0.20). RESULTS The median length of follow-up was 51 days (interquartile range: 7-742 days). Sixty-six patients (56%) died and 52 (44%) survived during follow-up period. Multivariate analysis showed that Glasgow Coma Scale score <9, hyperthermia (a core temperature of ≥39°C), maximum hematoma diameter more than 27 mm, and hematoma extension to midbrain and/or thalamus were significantly related to PH-related death. The Kaplan-Meier method showed that patients without these four factors had successively longer period at PH-related death (21 patients without factors: mean 2900 days; 97 patients with at least one of four factors: mean 820 days). CONCLUSIONS Promptly identifying PH patients who are most likely die is important. The decision to stop life support in patients with PH is difficult, but factors, which are shown in this study, may be used to determine the level of care.

Kam JK, Chen Z, Liew D, Yan B. Does warfarin-related intracerebral haemorrhage lead to higher costs of management? Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2014; 126:38-42. [PMID: 25201813 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2014.08.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2014] [Revised: 08/10/2014] [Accepted: 08/20/2014] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Warfarin-related intracerebral haemorrhage is associated with significant morbidity but long term treatment costs are unknown. Our study aimed to assess the cost of warfarin-related intracerebral haemorrhage. METHODS We included all patients with intracerebral haemorrhage between July 2006 and December 2011 at a single centre. We collected data on anticoagulant use, baseline clinical variables, discharge destinations, modified Rankin Scale at discharge and in-hospital costings. First year costings were extracted from previous studies. Multiple linear regression for treatment cost was performed with stratified analysis to assess for effect modification. RESULTS There were 694 intracerebral haemorrhage patients, with 108 (15.6%) previously on warfarin. Mean age (SD) of participants was 70.3 (13.6) and 58.5% were male. Patients on warfarin compared to those not on warfarin had significantly lower rates of discharge home (12.0% versus 18.9%, p=0.013). Overall total costs between groups were similar, $AUD 25,767 for warfarin-related intracerebral haemorrhage and $AUD 27,388 for non-warfarin intracerebral haemorrhage (p=0.353). Stratified analysis showed survivors of warfarin-related intracerebral haemorrhage had higher costs compared to those without warfarin ($AUD 33,419 versus $AUD 30,193, p<0.001) as well as increased length of stay (12 days versus 8 days, p<0.001). Inpatient mortality of patients on warfarin was associated with a shorter length of stay (p=0.001) and lower costs. CONCLUSION Survival of initial haemorrhage on warfarin was associated with increased treatment cost and length of stay but this was discounted by higher rates and earlier nature of mortality in warfarinised patients.

Abstract
Primary, spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) confers significant early mortality and long-term morbidity worldwide. Advances in acute care including investigative, diagnostic, and management strategies are important to improving outcomes for patients with ICH. Physicians caring for patients with ICH should anticipate the need for emergent blood pressure reduction, coagulopathy reversal, cerebral edema management, and surgical interventions including ventriculostomy and hematoma evacuation. This article reviews the pathogenesis and diagnosis of ICH, and details the acute management of spontaneous ICH in the critical care setting according to existing evidence and published guidelines.
