Elevated blood pressure is commonly found in acute cerebral hemorrhage and has been associated with poor prognosis. However, none of consensus is reached among the target and time for blood pressure reduction of cerebral hemorrhage. This review aims to summarize the current research status of blood pressure management in cerebral hemorrhage, including the characteristics of blood pressure in acute cerebral hemorrhage, correlation between elevated blood pressure and hematoma expansion, and blood pressure variability and prognosis, and combining the several randomized controlled trials of intensive antihypertensive therapy carried out in recent years. doi:10.3969/j.issn.1672⁃6731.2021.02.007
