ABSTRACT
Background: spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage is
the deadliest, most disabling, and least treatable form
of stroke. No therapy has proven to improve its
outcome or reduce its mortality.
Objective: to identify predictors of mortality in patients
with spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral
hemorrhage.
Methods: a single cohort study was conducted
involving 176 patients admitted consecutively to the
stroke ward of the "Carlos Manuel de Céspedes"
Provincial General Hospital with neuroimaging and
clinical diagnosis of spontaneous supratentorial
intracerebral hemorrhage from January 2013 to
November 2015. Independent predictors were obtained
using multivariable logistic regression.
Results: seventy four point four percent of the patients
were hypertensive. The median age among those who
died was 67.45 ± 14.84 years. Forty three point eight
percent of the patients under study died. Subjects with
fatal outcome had lower score on the Glasgow Coma
Scale (10.00 ± 3.47 vs. 14.00 ± 1.93), higher
hematoma volume expressed in cubic centimeters
(26.27 ± 36.86 vs. 6.19 ± 19.59), and displacement of
the midline structures (2.00 ± 5.95 vs. 0.00 ± 4.49).
The following predictors were identified: Glasgow score
≤ 10 points (Exp (B): 10.74; 95 % CI=4.69 to 24.59),
hematoma volume ≥ 20 cm3 (Exp (B): 4.44; 95 % CI=
1.95 to 10.06), and pulse pressure ≥ 60 mmHg (Exp (B):
2.42, 95 % CI=1.10 to 5.33). The area under the ROC
curve was 0.85.
Conclusions: the Glasgow Coma Scale is the most
significant independent variable to predict mortality in
patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.
