The association between the Charlson Comorbidity Index and prognosis in patients with supratentorial spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage following hematoma evacuation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) carries high mortality and morbidity. Compared to deep ICH, acute lobar ICH has distinct profiles and poorer early prognosis, frequently associated with non-hypertensive etiologies. The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) is linked to critical ICH outcomes. This study assessed the relationship between CCI and prognosis following hematoma evacuation in supratentorial spontaneous ICH patients.

Methods

Three hundred and eighty-one patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH underwent hematoma evacuation, with their CCI scores categorized into low and high comorbidity groups. Following an analysis of demographic data, medical history, clinical and imaging characteristics, and poor outcomes [modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 4-6], the
