Purpose: Hypoalbuminemia and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) are reported in critically-ill patients, but their relationship is unclear. We sought to determine the association of admission serum albumin and SIRS with outcomes in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods: We used a multicenter, multinational registry of ICH patients to select patients in whom SIRS parameters and serum ...
Background and Purpose: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) volume, particularly if >= 30 mL, is a major determinant of poor outcome. We used a multinational ICH data registry to study the characteristics, course, and outcomes of supratentorial hematomas with volumes <30 mL. Methods: Basic characteristics, clinical and radiological course, and 30-day outcomes of these patients were recorded. Outcomes were categorize...
