A retrospective analysis was made of surgical timing and curative effect of the surgical methods.RESULTS:The effectiveness rate of the methods was 74.12% for 1 310 patients after onemonth follow-up. In this series,the disability rate was 44.82% 3–6 months after the operation. Among the 1 310 patients,241(18.40%) patients died after the operation. If hematoma volume was >80 mL and the operation was performed within 3 hours,the mortality rate of group A was signifi cantly lower than that of groups B,C,D,and E(P<0.05). If hematoma volume was 50–80 mL and the operation was performed within 6–12 hours,the mortality rate of groups B and D was lower than that of groups A,C and E(P<0.05). If hematoma volume was 20–50 mL and the operation was performed within 6–24 hours,the mortality rate of group C was lower than that of groups A,B and D(P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Craniotomy through a bone f lap is suitable for patients with a large hematoma and hernia of the brain. Stereotactic drilling drainage is suggested for patients with hematoma volume less than 80 mL. The curative effect of HICH individualized treatment would be improved via the suitable selection of operation time and surgical method according to the position and volume of hemorrhage.展开更多

TXA2, TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1α and PGI2 were measured after operation in the three groups respectively. The postoperative blood pressure in group A, including SBP and DBP, was elevated more obviously than that in the other two groups. TXA2 and PGI2 in group A were significantly higher than those in other two groups (P〈0.01). Moreover, the ratio of TXB2 to 6-keto-PGF1α in group A was significantly higher than that in other two groups (P〈0.05). The increase of TXA2 and the relative inadequacy of prostacyclin, especially 6-keto-PGF1α, may play roles in the postoperative hypertensive crisis. And the increased value of TXB2 to 6-keto-PGF1α could provide the basis for diagnosis of postoperative hypertensive crisis.展开更多

Methods: From June 1994 to Oct., 2000, 83 patients admitted to our service with acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) were investigated retrospectively; 41 patients with his-tologically proven diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiography and 42 patients with clear history of hypertension were investigated. Results: Patients with a CAA-related ICH were significantly older than patients with a HTN-related ICH (74.0 years vs 66.5 years, P<0.05). There was a significantly higher number of hematomas> ml in CAA (85.3%) when compared with HTN (59.5%). No basal ganglional hemorrhage was seen in CAA, but in 40.5% in HTN. In CAA-related ICH, su-barachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) was seen in 26 patients (63.4%) compared to only 11 patients (26.2%) in HTN-related ICH. Intraventricular hemorrhage was seen in 24.4% in CAA, and in 26.2% in HTN. Typical features of CAA-related ICH included lobar distribution affecting mainly the lobar superficial areas, lobulated appearance, rupture into the subarachnoid space, and secondary IVH from the lobar hemorrhage. More specifically, multiplicity of hemorrhage, bilaterality, and repeated episodes also strongly suggest the diagnosis of CAA. Multiple hemorrhages, defined as 2 or more separate he-matomas in multiple lobes, accounted for 17.1% in CAA-related ICH. Conclusion: There are certain features in CAA on CT and MRI and in clinical settings. To some extent, these features may contribute to distinguishing CAA from HTN related ICH.展开更多

Methods: The clinical materials of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage patients with carniocervial CTA from January 2018 to August 2019 in Puren Hospital of Wuhan were analyzed retrospectively. The correlation and risk factors between hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage and internal carotid atherosclerosis were studied by logistic regression and descriptive analysis, at the same time, the application value of carniocervial CTA in patients with cerebral hemorrhage was evaluated. Results: There was a correlation between hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage and internal carotid atherosclerosis (χ2 = 5.319, P = 0.021 1), which indicated that internal carotid atherosclerosis was the risk factor of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, and there was no significant correlation between the location of internal carotid atherosclerosis, multiple atherosclerosis of internal carotid artery and hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. Monofactor analysis showed that the risk factors of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage with internal carotid atherosclerosis were sex, age, diabetes and hyperlipidemia. According to the logistic regression analysis, hyperlipidemia and diabetes were independent risk factors for hypertensive. Conclusion: The occurrence of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage is related to internal carotid atherosclerosis and is affected by many factors. Carniocervial CTA is helpful to the diagnosis of cerebral hemorrhage.展开更多

HICH is characteristic of high morbidity, fatality rate, disability rate and recurrence rate. HICH is the most common type of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage and various surgical interventions are one of the major treatments for HICH. Surgical treatment is to eliminate hematoma, relieve oppression of hematoma on surrounding brain tissues, lower intracranial pressure and alleviate secondary brain tissue damages, thus enabling to decrease fatality rate of patients and improve the long-term quality of life. Patients with HICH often may have different degrees of coma, pains, dysphoria, anxiety and delirium in the postoperative period. After central pivot was damaged, the sympathetic central excitability spreading is strengthened in the state of cortical inhibition, which also might be accompanied by paroxysmal sympathetic hyperexcitation syndrome to strengthen disease conditions of patients and thereby influence subsequent treatment. Several professional guidelines all recommend analgesic-sedative treatment as an important component of ICU therapy. However, it lacks support by large sample sized clinical research results of analgesic-sedative treatment of HICH in the postoperative period. This study analyzed literature concerning analgesic-sedative treatment of HICH in the postoperative period in recent years, aiming to guide specific clinical implementation.展开更多

Methods: According to random data table method, a total of 120 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage from September 2016 to May 2017 were divided into observation group and the control group, 60 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional treatment;on the basis of conventional treatment, the observation group underwent minimally invasive evacuation of intracranial hematoma. The levels of serum SF, SP, vascular endothelial function and inflammatory factors changes were compared between the two groups before and after the treatment. Results: Before treatment, the levels of serum SP, SF, NO, ET-1, hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α in the two groups were not statistically significant. The levels of hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, SF, ET-1 after treatment in two groups were significantly lower than those in the same group before treatment, and the observation group levels were significantly lower than those in the control group;the levels of SP, NO in the two groups after treatment were significantly higher than before treatment, and the observation group was higher than that the control group with significant difference. Conclusion: The minimally invasive intracranial hematoma evacuation for patients with HICH can effectively improve the levels of SP, SF, inflammatory factors and vascular endothelial function, which is helpful to relieve cerebral edema and lower intracranial pressure, and improve the quality of treatment.展开更多

Thus, intracerebral hemorrhage was controlled, and the purpose of hemostasis was achieved. Methods: Sixty-eight patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were divided into a treatment group (n = 51), and a control group (n = 35). Nimotop solution (10 mg) was administered as a fast-flowing IV infusion in the treatment group, and 250 ml 20% mannitol infusion was given to patients in the control group twice every day. Patients in both groups received treatment for seven days, and the blood pressure on the treatment day was measured. A brain Computed Tomography (CT) scan was performed as a reexamination within two weeks. Results: The blood pressure in the treatment group was decreased from 179/104 to 151/91 mmHg, averagely, and in the control group was decreased from 181/108 to 180/103 mmHg, averagely. The difference between these two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.01). Hematoma enlargement occurred in 20 patients (53.3%) in the treatment group, and four patients in the control group (8.57%). The difference between both groups was statistically significant (P < 0.01). There were eight deaths in the treatment group. Seven deaths were caused by cerebral hernia, and one was caused by complications. There was one death in the control group caused by lung infection and gastrointestinal bleeding. Conclusion: Nimodipine can dilate the arteries, reduce blood pressure, and elevate intracranial pressure, lowering pressure gradients across vessel wall which destroy the vessel wall. Also, nimodipine can prevent hemorrhage as well as recurrent hemorrhage, and can used as the first choice of rescue drug. What’s more, dehydration drugs such as mannitol should not be used in the early stage of intracerebral hemorrhage in order to prevent hematoma enlargement.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND:The present study aimed to explore the relationship between surgical methods,hemorrhage position,hemorrhage volume,surgical timing and treatment outcome of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage(HICH).METHODS:A total of 1 310 patients,who had been admitted to six hospitals from January 2004 to January 2008,were divided into six groups according to different surgical methods:craniotomy through bone fl ap(group A),craniotomy through a small bone window(group B),stereotactic drilling drainage(group C1 and group C2),neuron-endoscopy operation(group D) and external ventricular drainage(group E) in consideration of hemorrhage position,hemorrhage volume and clinical practice. A retrospective analysis was made of surgical timing and curative effect of the surgical methods.RESULTS:The effectiveness rate of the methods was 74.12% for 1 310 patients after onemonth follow-up. In this series,the disability rate was 44.82% 3–6 months after the operation. Among the 1 310 patients,241(18.40%) patients died after the operation. If hematoma volume was >80 mL and the operation was performed within 3 hours,the mortality rate of group A was signifi cantly lower than that of groups B,C,D,and E(P<0.05). If hematoma volume was 50–80 mL and the operation was performed within 6–12 hours,the mortality rate of groups B and D was lower than that of groups A,C and E(P<0.05). If hematoma volume was 20–50 mL and the operation was performed within 6–24 hours,the mortality rate of group C was lower than that of groups A,B and D(P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Craniotomy through a bone f lap is suitable for patients with a large hematoma and hernia of the brain. Stereotactic drilling drainage is suggested for patients with hematoma volume less than 80 mL. The curative effect of HICH individualized treatment would be improved via the suitable selection of operation time and surgical method according to the position and volume of hemorrhage.
文摘In order to explore the changes and the roles of TXA2 and PGI2 during postoperative hypertensive crisis in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, 31 cases subject to craniotomy were divided into three groups: group A, 9 patients with postoperative hypertensive crisis; group B, 13 patients without postoperative hypertensive crisis; and group C, 9 patients without history of hypertension and hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. TXA2, TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1α and PGI2 were measured after operation in the three groups respectively. The postoperative blood pressure in group A, including SBP and DBP, was elevated more obviously than that in the other two groups. TXA2 and PGI2 in group A were significantly higher than those in other two groups (P〈0.01). Moreover, the ratio of TXB2 to 6-keto-PGF1α in group A was significantly higher than that in other two groups (P〈0.05). The increase of TXA2 and the relative inadequacy of prostacyclin, especially 6-keto-PGF1α, may play roles in the postoperative hypertensive crisis. And the increased value of TXB2 to 6-keto-PGF1α could provide the basis for diagnosis of postoperative hypertensive crisis.

文摘There is no effective treatment for hemiplegia after hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.Considering that the branches of L4 nerve roots in the lumbar plexus root control the movement of the lower extremity anterior and posterior muscles,we investigated a potential method of nerve repair using the L4 nerve roots.Rat models of hindlimb hemiplegia after a hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage were established by injecting autogenous blood into the posterior limb of internal capsule.The L4 nerve root on the healthy side of model rats was transferred and then anastomosed with the L4 nerve root on the affected side to drive the extensor and flexor muscles of the hindlimbs.We investigated whether this method can restore the flexible movement of the hindlimbs of paralyzed rats after hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.In a beam-walking test and ladder rung walking task,model rats exhibited an initial high number of slips,but improved in accuracy on the paretic side over time.At 17 weeks after surgery,rats gained approximately 58.2%accuracy from baseline performance and performed ankle motions on the paretic side.At 9 weeks after surgery,a retrograde tracing test showed a large number of fluoro-gold-labeled motoneurons in the left anterior horn of the spinal cord that supports the L4-to-L4 nerve roots.In addition,histological and ultramicrostructural findings showed axon regeneration of motoneurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord.Electromyography and paw print analysis showed that denervated hindlimb muscles regained reliable innervation and walking coordination improved.These findings suggest that the L4-to-L4 nerve root transfer method for the treatment of hindlimb hemiplegia after hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage can improve the locomotion of hindlimb major joints,particularly of the distal ankle.Findings from study support that the L4-to-L4 nerve root transfer method can effectively repair the hindlimb hemiplegia after hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.All animal experiments were approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University(No.IACUC-1906009)in June 2019.

The correlation and risk factors between hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage and internal carotid atherosclerosis were studied by logistic regression and descriptive analysis, at the same time, the application value of carniocervial CTA in patients with cerebral hemorrhage was evaluated. Results: There was a correlation between hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage and internal carotid atherosclerosis (χ2 = 5.319, P = 0.021 1), which indicated that internal carotid atherosclerosis was the risk factor of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, and there was no significant correlation between the location of internal carotid atherosclerosis, multiple atherosclerosis of internal carotid artery and hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. Monofactor analysis showed that the risk factors of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage with internal carotid atherosclerosis were sex, age, diabetes and hyperlipidemia. According to the logistic regression analysis, hyperlipidemia and diabetes were independent risk factors for hypertensive. Conclusion: The occurrence of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage is related to internal carotid atherosclerosis and is affected by many factors. Carniocervial CTA is helpful to the diagnosis of cerebral hemorrhage.
文摘Hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) refers to intra cerebral hemorrhage at basal ganglia, thalamus, ventricle, cerebellum and brainstem in patients with history of explicit hypertension disease, excluding secondary cerebral hemorrhage caused by trauma, vascular structural disorders, coagulation disorders, hematologic diseases, systematic diseases and neoplastic diseases. HICH is characteristic of high morbidity, fatality rate, disability rate and recurrence rate. HICH is the most common type of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage and various surgical interventions are one of the major treatments for HICH. Surgical treatment is to eliminate hematoma, relieve oppression of hematoma on surrounding brain tissues, lower intracranial pressure and alleviate secondary brain tissue damages, thus enabling to decrease fatality rate of patients and improve the long-term quality of life. Patients with HICH often may have different degrees of coma, pains, dysphoria, anxiety and delirium in the postoperative period. After central pivot was damaged, the sympathetic central excitability spreading is strengthened in the state of cortical inhibition, which also might be accompanied by paroxysmal sympathetic hyperexcitation syndrome to strengthen disease conditions of patients and thereby influence subsequent treatment. Several professional guidelines all recommend analgesic-sedative treatment as an important component of ICU therapy. However, it lacks support by large sample sized clinical research results of analgesic-sedative treatment of HICH in the postoperative period. This study analyzed literature concerning analgesic-sedative treatment of HICH in the postoperative period in recent years, aiming to guide specific clinical implementation.
文摘Objective: To investigate the effects of minimally invasive evacuation of intracranial hematoma on serum SP, SF, vascular endothelial function and inflammatory factors of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods: According to random data table method, a total of 120 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage from September 2016 to May 2017 were divided into observation group and the control group, 60 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional treatment;on the basis of conventional treatment, the observation group underwent minimally invasive evacuation of intracranial hematoma. The levels of serum SF, SP, vascular endothelial function and inflammatory factors changes were compared between the two groups before and after the treatment. Results: Before treatment, the levels of serum SP, SF, NO, ET-1, hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α in the two groups were not statistically significant. The levels of hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, SF, ET-1 after treatment in two groups were significantly lower than those in the same group before treatment, and the observation group levels were significantly lower than those in the control group;the levels of SP, NO in the two groups after treatment were significantly higher than before treatment, and the observation group was higher than that the control group with significant difference. Conclusion: The minimally invasive intracranial hematoma evacuation for patients with HICH can effectively improve the levels of SP, SF, inflammatory factors and vascular endothelial function, which is helpful to relieve cerebral edema and lower intracranial pressure, and improve the quality of treatment.

文摘BACKGROUND Hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage(HICH)is the rupture and bleeding of vessels of the cerebral parenchyma caused by continuously elevated or violently fluctuating blood pressure.The condition is characterized by high disability and high mortality.Hematoma formation and resulting space-occupying effects following intracerebral hemorrhage are among the key causes of impaired neurological function and disability.Consequently,minimally invasive clearance of the hematoma is undertaken for the treatment of HICH because it can effectively relieve intracranial hypertension.Therefore,special attention should be given to the quality of medical and nursing interventions in the convalescent period after minimally invasive hematoma clearance.AIM The study aim was to determine the value of intensive intervention,including doctors,nurses,and patient families,for the prevention of rebleeding in elderly patients with HICH during the first hospitalization for rehabilitation after the ictal event METHODS A total of 150 elderly HICH patients with minimally invasive hematoma evacuation in our hospital between May 2018 and May 2020 were selected and equally divided into two groups of 75 each by their planned intervention.The control group was given conventional nursing intervention and the observation group was given tripartite intensive intervention.The length of hospital stay,cost,complication rate,satisfaction rate,and rebleeding rate during hospitalization were recorded.Changes in cerebral blood flow indicators were recorded in both groups.Changes in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score,quality of life index(QLI)score,and health behavior score were evaluated at the National Institutes of Health.RESULTS Duration of hospitalization was shorter in the in the observation group than in the control group,the hospitalization cost was less than in the control group,and the rate of rebleeding during hospitalization was lower than in the control group(all P<0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups before treatment(all P>0.05).The mean flow rate(Qmean)and mean velocity(Vmean)of the two groups increased(P<0.05),and the dynamic resistance and peripheral resistance decreased(P<0.05).The Qmean and Vmean in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Moreover,the dynamic resistance and peripheral resistance of the blood vessels were also lower in the intervention group than in the control group(P<0.05).The difference in health behavior scores between the two groups before treatment was not significant(P>0.05).In both groups,the scores for healthy behaviors such as emotion control,medication adherence,dietary management,exercise management,and selfmonitoring were higher after than before treatment(P<0.05),and the scores of healthy behaviors in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the NIHSS and QLI scores between the two groups before treatment(P>0.05).The QLI scores of the two groups increased(P<0.05),and the NIHSS scores decreased(P<0.05).The QLI scores of the intervention group were higher than those of the control group(P<0.05),and the NIHSS score was correspondingly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of respiratory infections,pressure sores,central hyperpyrexia,and deep venous thrombosis was lower in the intervention group than in the control group.Accordingly,the satisfaction rate was higher in the treatment group than that in the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Intensive intervention by doctors,nurses,and families of elderly patients with HICH reduced the rate of rebleeding during hospitalization.It also reduced the incidence of complications,promoted rehabilitation,improved the quality of life,and enhanced nerve function.Additionally,it improved satisfaction and promoted healthy behaviors.
文摘BACKGROUND Hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage is a common critical disease of the nervous system,comprising one fifth of all acute cerebrovascular diseases and has a high disability and mortality rate.It severely affects the patients’quality of life.AIM To analyze the short-term effect and long-term prognosis of neuroendoscopic minimally invasive surgery for hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.METHODS From March 2018 to May 2020,118 patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage were enrolled in our study and divided into a control group and observation group according to the surgical plan.The control group used a hard-channel minimally invasive puncture and drainage procedure.The observation group underwent minimally invasive neuroendoscopic surgery.The changes in the levels of serum P substances(SP),inflammatory factors[tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-6(IL-6),IL-10],and the National Hospital Stroke Scale(NIHSS)and Barthel index scores were recorded.Surgery related indicators and prognosis were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The operation time(105.26±28.35)of the observation group was min longer than that of the control group,and the volume of intraoperative bleeding was 45.36±10.17 mL more than that of the control group.The hematoma clearance rates were 88.58%±4.69%and 94.47%±4.02%higher than those of the control group at 48 h and 72 h,respectively.Good prognosis rate(86.44%)was higher in the observation group than in the control group,and complication rate(5.08%)was not significantly different from that of the control group(P>0.05).The SP level and Barthel index score of the two groups increased(P<0.05)and the inflam-matory factors and NIHSS score decreased(P<0.05).The cytokine levels,NIHSS score,and Barthel index score were better in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Neuroendoscopic minimally invasive surgery is more complicated than hard channel minimally invasive puncture drainage in the treatment of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage;however,hematoma clearance is more thorough,and the short-term effect and long-term prognosis are better than hard channel minimally invasive puncture drainage.
文摘Objective: To reduce the blood pressure and elevate intracranial pressure using nimodipine (Nimotop Intravenous (IV) infusion). Thus, intracerebral hemorrhage was controlled, and the purpose of hemostasis was achieved. Methods: Sixty-eight patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were divided into a treatment group (n = 51), and a control group (n = 35). Nimotop solution (10 mg) was administered as a fast-flowing IV infusion in the treatment group, and 250 ml 20% mannitol infusion was given to patients in the control group twice every day. Patients in both groups received treatment for seven days, and the blood pressure on the treatment day was measured. A brain Computed Tomography (CT) scan was performed as a reexamination within two weeks. Results: The blood pressure in the treatment group was decreased from 179/104 to 151/91 mmHg, averagely, and in the control group was decreased from 181/108 to 180/103 mmHg, averagely. The difference between these two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.01). Hematoma enlargement occurred in 20 patients (53.3%) in the treatment group, and four patients in the control group (8.57%). The difference between both groups was statistically significant (P < 0.01). There were eight deaths in the treatment group. Seven deaths were caused by cerebral hernia, and one was caused by complications. There was one death in the control group caused by lung infection and gastrointestinal bleeding. Conclusion: Nimodipine can dilate the arteries, reduce blood pressure, and elevate intracranial pressure, lowering pressure gradients across vessel wall which destroy the vessel wall. Also, nimodipine can prevent hemorrhage as well as recurrent hemorrhage, and can used as the first choice of rescue drug. What’s more, dehydration drugs such as mannitol should not be used in the early stage of intracerebral hemorrhage in order to prevent hematoma enlargement.
