Abstract

To analyze the relationship between electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters in the acute period of hemorrhagic stroke and its poor outcome within 90 days. ECG data of 133 patients with hemorrhagic stroke recorded upon admission to the primary vascular department were analyzed. Eighteen percent out of 133 patients died within 90 days. The only ECG-predictor of the poor outcome of hemorrhagic stroke was the prolongation of corrected QT interval (QTc). The length of QTc should be taken into account while assessing patients with hemorrhagic stroke. The patients with the abnormal QTc are at higher risk of the development of cardiac complications and death.
