Clinical study on hematoma puncture and catheter drainage in treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage under CT real-time guide

Abstract

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of hematoma puncture catheter drainage under CT real-time guide for treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods A total of 80 ICH patients with hematoma volume 15-30 ml were given conservative treatment (control group, 40 cases including 6 cases with hematoma volume 15-20 ml and 34 cases with hematoma volume > 20-30 ml) and hematoma puncture and catheter drainage under CT real-time guide (operation group, 40 cases with hematoma volume > 20-30 ml). Conscious states were evaluated by Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) on admission and 3 d after onset. Neurological deficits of patients were evaluated by National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) on admission and discharge. Hospitalization days and complications (including rebleeding, epilepsy, intracranial infection, severe pulmonary infection and bleeding caused by digestive tract stress ulcer) were recorded. Results The GCS scores 3 d after onset (P = 0.000) and NIHSS scores on discharge (P = 0.000) of 2 groups were significantly lower than those on admission. The GCS score of operation group was significantly higher (P = 0.003) and NIHSS score was significantly lower (P = 0.000) than that of control group. The hospitalization time of operation group was significantly lower than those of control group [(10.53 ± 2.64) d vs. (17.30 ± 4.92) d; t = 7.673, P = 0.000]. Complications including rebleeding, intracranial infection, severe pulmonary infection and bleeding caused by digestive tract stress ulcer did not occur in patients of 2 groups. Conclusions For supratentorial hemorrhage patients withhematoma volume 15-30 ml, in comparison with conservative treatment, operation with hematoma puncture and catheter drainage under CT real-time guide can save hospitalization days, relieve edema peak response and improve the prognosis.
