OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical significance of early nutritional support for patients with critical hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) in a critical condition after operation, and the rationale of different methods of nutritional support.
METHODS
One hundred and seven HICH patients after operation with Glasgow coma score (GCS) 6-8 were randomly divided into three groups: early enteral nutrition (EEN) group (38 cases); early parenteral nutrition (EPN) group (35 cases), conventional treatment controls (34 cases). They were given different nutritional supports 48 hours after operation. Changes in nutritional parameters and the clinical complications in three groups after treatment were observed, and the treatment effects after 3 months were compared.
RESULTS
At the end of first week after operation, nutrition parameters including albumin (ALb), hemoglobin (Hgb) in EEN and EPN groups were better than those in control group(P<0.05); at the end of second week, they were differences among three groups but without statistical significance (P>0.05). The complications were higher in EPN and control groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The outcome was assessed 3 months after the operation in term of activity of daily life (ADL), and the result was better in EEN group than that in EPN and control groups (P<0.005).
CONCLUSIONS
Postoperative HICH patients in critical condition could be benefited with EEN, and complications could be reduced with improved prognosis.
