Ultraearly Hematoma Growth in Acute Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage Predicts Early and Long-Term Poor Clinical Outcomes: A Prospective, Observational Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Aims: Although prognostic importance of ultraearly hematoma growth (uHG) in acute, non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has been established for early outcomes, longer-term clinical outcomes are lacking. We aimed to determine the association of uHG with early and 1-year clinical outcomes after acute ICH in a larger and broader range of patients. Methods: We studied 589 patients with acute (<6 h) spontaneous ICH. uHG was defined as baseline ICH volume/onset-to-imaging time (OIT) (ml/h). Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to determine the association of uHG with in-hospital mortality, 90-day, and 1-year poor outcome [3 ≤ modified Rankin Scale (mRS)] after ICH. Results: The median speed of uHG was 4.8 ml/h. uHG > 9.3 ml/h was independently r
