![]() Only TCD indicators of the pulsatility index from unaffected hemispheres (UPI) (OR 2.373, CI 1.299–4.335, p = 0.005) and QEEG indicators of the delta/alpha ratio (DAR) (OR 5.306, CI 1.533–18.360, p = 0.008) were independent predictors for clinical outcome. Statistical results showed there were no significant differences in brain symmetry index between survivors and nonsurvivors, nor between patients and controls (all p > 0.05). Resultsįorty-seven patients (67.3 ± 12.6 years 23 men) were studied. Univariate and multivariable analyses and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were employed to assess the relationships between variables and outcome. Quantitative brain function monitoring was performed using a TCD-QEEG recording system at the patient’s bedside (NSD-8100 Delica, China). We collected demographic data, serological data, and clinical factors, and performed neurophysiological tests at study entry. Mortality was assessed at 90-day follow-up. We prospectively enrolled patients with severe acute supratentorial (SAS)-ICH from June 2015 to December 2016. We aimed to combine TCD and QEEG to comprehensively assess brain function after ICH and provide prognostic diagnosis. ![]() Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is increasingly used as an indirect measure of ICP, and quantitative EEG (QEEG) can reflect the coupling of CBF and metabolism. Neurological deterioration after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is thought to be closely related to increased intracranial pressure (ICP), decreased cerebral blood flow (CBF), and brain metabolism. ![]()
