Abstract
This study was designed to identify the frequency and factors of in-hospital patient mortality in intracerebral hemorrhage cases. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Neurology and Medicine department of JPMC, Karachi, from 30-05-20 to 30-11-20. A total of 147 patients that were recently diagnosed with acute hemorrhage stroke were selected for the study. Patients' data about acute hemorrhage stroke, Hypertension, diabetes mellitus type II, smoking status, and ischemic heart disease was noted. Patients were examined, and an assessment of GCS was done. Height and weight were measured by tape measure and weight machine, respectively. The mean age of participants was 58.14±8.49 years. At the same time, our study's average duration of acute hemorrhagic stroke, BMI, height, weight, SBP, and DBP was 7.44±5.24 hours, 26.72±1.56 kg/m2, 158±7. Out of 147 acute hemorrhagic stroke patients, 41 (27.9%) and 106 (72.1%) had and did not have in-hospital mortality. Hypertension, GCS score, diabetes mellitus, volume of hematoma, and intraventricular hematoma are independent variables associated with poor intracerebral hemorrhage outcomes.
