Data on determinants of prognosis after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in young adults are scarce. Our aim was to identify clinical determinants of prognosis after ICH in adults aged 18-50. We investigated 98 consecutive patients with an ICH, aged 18-50 years, admitted to our hospital between 1980 and 2010. Collected ICH characteristics included presenting symptoms, etiology, location, severity and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS). Outcomes were case-fatality (death within 30 days), poor functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale >2), long-term mortality and recurrent ICH. We assessed discriminatory power of factors associated with case-fatality [area under receiver operating curve (AUC)]. Case-fatality was 20.4 % (n = 20) and well predicted by the GCS (AUC 0.83). Among 30-day survivors, a poor functional outcome at discharge was present in 51.3 %. During a mean follow-up of 11.3 years mortality was only increased in patients aged 40-50 years [standardized mortality ratio 4.8 (95 % CI 2.3-8.6)], but not in patients aged 18-40 years. Recurrent ICH occurred in 6 patients [10-year cumulative incidence 12.2 % (95 % CI 1.5-22.9 %)], all with the index ICH attributable to structural vascular malformations. Prognosis after ICH in young adults is poor, mainly due to high case-fatality, that is well predicted by the GCS. An exception is 30-day survivors <40 years, who have a similar risk of dying as the general population. Recurrence risk is especially present in patients with structural vascular malformations, whereas risk seems to be very low in other patients.
关于年轻成年人脑出血(ICH)后预后决定因素的数据很少。我们的目的是确定18 - 50岁成年人脑出血后预后的临床决定因素。我们调查了1980年至2010年间我院收治的98例年龄在18 - 50岁的连续脑出血患者。收集的脑出血特征包括出现的症状、病因、部位、严重程度和格拉斯哥昏迷量表(GCS)。结局指标为病死率(30天内死亡)、功能预后不良(改良Rankin量表>2)、长期死亡率和脑出血复发。我们评估了与病死率相关因素的辨别能力[受试者操作特征曲线下面积(AUC)]。病死率为20.4%(n = 20),GCS对其预测效果良好(AUC 0.83)。在30天幸存者中,出院时功能预后不良的占51.3%。在平均11.3年的随访期间,仅40 - 50岁患者的死亡率有所增加[标准化死亡率4.8(95%可信区间2.3 - 8.6)],而18 - 40岁患者则没有。6例患者发生脑出血复发[10年累积发病率12.2%(95%可信区间1.5 - 22.9%)],所有复发性脑出血均归因于结构性血管畸形。年轻成年人脑出血后的预后较差,主要是由于病死率高,GCS对此预测效果良好。40岁以下的30天幸存者是个例外,他们的死亡风险与一般人群相似。结构性血管畸形患者的复发风险尤其高,而其他患者的复发风险似乎很低。
