Impaired Kidney Function Portended a Bleak Prognosis for Surgically Treated Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage Patients.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) cases caused by hypertension often have poor prognoses. The use of dehydrant agents, such as mannitol, is common to reduce intracranial pressure and alleviate cerebral edema, but they may also pose a risk of worsening kidney function. This study aimed to investigate the impact of impaired kidney function on the outcomes of surgically treated hypertensive ICH patients.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective analysis of a consecutive cohort of patients who underwent surgical intervention due to hypertension-related ICH at our institute between December 1, 2017, and January 31, 2022. Demographic, clinical, radiological, and prognostic data were collected. Patients were categorized into two groups based on 90-day mortality: group A [overall survival (OS) ≤3 months] and group B (OS >3 months). Survival analysis was performed to identify factors associated with poor outcomes.

Results

Among the 232 eligible patients, group A exhibited significantly impaired kidney function, as indicated by mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at admission, postoperative, 3-day postoperative, and 7-day postoperative time points (91.9, 82.5, 73.5, 75.2 ml/min/1.73 m²). In contrast, group B did not show significant changes in kidney function (mean eGFR for the corresponding time points: 108.1, 106.5, 111.5, 109.6 ml/min/1.73 m²). The 3-day postoperative eGFR showed the strongest predictive ability for assessing prognosis [areas under the curve (AUC): 0.617, 0.675, 0.737, 0.730]. Univariate and multivariate analyses identified low Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score (3-8), ventricle intrusion of hematomas, cardiac failure, larger hematoma volume, infection, and lower 3-day postoperative eGFR as adverse factors for survival.

Conclusions

Preserving kidney function is crucial for achieving favorable outcomes in hypertensive ICH cases. Impaired 3-day postoperative eGFR emerged as an independent risk factor for overall survival. Patients with cardiac failure, infection, and larger hematoma volume should receive careful management to improve outcomes.

Project description:The authors sought to explore whether hypertension classification was risk factor for lobar and non-lobar hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) and the prognosis in patients with hematoma. This retrospective cohort study was conducted on HICH patients admitted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University. Observations with first-ever intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) were recruited. The authors divided the brain image into three groups according to the location of ICH to predict whether there were significant differences between lobar and non-lobar ICH. A Mann-Whitney U test was used and this retrospective trial also compared the operation and mortality rates. Our cohort included 209 patients (73.7% male; median age:60.5±16.7). The overall incidence of lobar HICH was less than non-lobar HICH (24.4% vs. 68.4%), 7.2% cases of mixed HICH was included in this analysis. In a Mann-Whitney U test analyze, it indicated that there were significant differences in hypertension classification between lobar and non-lobar HICH (Z = -3.3, p<.05). And the percentage of hematoma in lobar areas with relatively slightly high blood pressure (BP) (high normal and grade 1 hypertension) accounts for 52.9% versus 30.1% in non-lobar areas. The increasing trends of the prevalent rate of lobar ICH with BP rising were not remarkable. The non-lobar HICH showed a sharper increase in the condition of grade 3 hypertension compared with lobar HICH. During the period of research, the fatality of lobar hemorrhage was 2.9% versus 7.7% (non-lobar). Besides, the fatality incidence of HICH with relatively slightly high BP (high normal and grade 1 hypertension) was lower than poorly controlled hypertensive patients (grade 2 and grade 3 hypertension). (8.0% vs. 15.7%). The increase of hypertension classification will aggravate the occurrence of non-lobar ICH and positively corrected with BP, but not in lobar areas. It is essential to understand the distinction influence of hypertension classification between lobar and non-lobar ICH.

Project description:BackgroundIntraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is often caused by irruption of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) of basal ganglia or thalamus into the ventricular system. Instillation of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) via an external ventricular drainage (EVD) has been shown to effectively decrease IVH volumes while the impact of rtPA instillation on ICH volumes remains unclear. In this series, we analyzed volumetric changes of ICH in patients with and without intrathecal lysis therapy.MethodsBetween 01/2013 and 01/2019, 36 patients with IVH caused by hemorrhage of basal ganglia, thalamus or brain stem were treated with rtPA via an EVD (Group A). Initial volumes were determined in the first available computed tomography (CT) scan, final volumes in the last CT scan before discharge. During the same period, 41 patients with ICH without relevant IVH were treated without intrathecal lysis therapy at our neurocritical care unit (Group B). Serial CT scans were evaluated separately for changes in ICH volumes for both cohorts using OsiriX DICOM viewer. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was performed for statistical analysis in not normally distributed variables.ResultsMedian initial volume of ICH for treatment Group A was 6.5 ml and was reduced to 5.0 ml after first instillation of rtPA (p < 0.01). Twenty-six patients received a second treatment with rtPA (ICH volume reduction 4.5 to 3.3 ml, p < 0.01) and of this cohort further 16 patients underwent a third treatment (ICH volume reduction 3.0 ml to 1.5 ml, p < 0.01). Comparison of first and last CT scan in Group A confirmed an overall median percentage reduction of 91.7% (n = 36, p < 0.01) of ICH volumes and hematoma resolution in Group A was significantly more effective compared to non-rtPA group, Group B (percentage reduction = 68%) independent of initial hematoma volume in the regression analysis (p = 0.07, mean 11.1, 95%CI 7.7-14.5). There were no adverse events in Group A related to rtPA instillation.ConclusionIntrathecal lysis therapy leads to a significant reduction in the intraparenchymal hematoma volume with faster clot resolution compared to the spontaneous hematoma resorption. Furthermore, intrathecal rtPA application had no adverse effect on ICH volume.
