Introduction: Prospective studies and secondary analyses from clinical trials have identified increased systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV) as a risk factor for poor outcomes. Evidence of this association in real-world intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) hospitalization is lacking, however. Methods: Data for adult (≥18) patients with primary ICH were retrieved from the REINAH cerebrovascular research database. Systolic blood pressure measurements from the first 24 hours of admission were retrieved and SBPV was calculated as the Coefficient of Variation (CV) = (standard deviation/mean)*100. Socioeconomic deprivation was assessed using the state Area Deprivation Index (ADI), with high deprivation assessed at ADI ≥ 8. The primary outcome was severe disability or death (SDD; modified Rankin Scale ≥4) at 90-days after discharge. Differences in SBPV across SDD were assessed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Associations between SBPV and SDD were assessed using multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for patient characteristics. Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) are reported. Results: Final cohort included 807 patients (median [IQR]: 66 [54-77], 45.6% female), with an ethno-racial distribution of 41.9% White, 25.9% Black, 23.9% Hispanic, 5.7% Asian, and 2.6% Other. The median CV was 12.07 [9.50-15.59] and 485 (60.1%) patients experienced SDD. Patients with SDD showed significantly higher SBPV than non-SDD patients (12.90 [10.33-17.11] vs 10.99 [8.72-13.72]; p<0.001). Patients with 24-hour SBPV in the 3 rd (1.86 [1.16-2.96]) and 4 th quartile (3.10 [1.89-5.09]) had higher independent odds of SDD (vs. 1 st quartile) (Figure 1). Discussion: Patients with high SBPV during the first 24 hours of admission have higher odds of severe disability or death at 90-days after discharge.
