cerebral hemorrhage/fever

BACKGROUND Our goal was to identify independent early predictors of 30-day mortality in patients with medically treated primary intracerebral hemorrhage (PICH), and to assess the prognostic significance of hyperthermia in these cases METHODS We prospectively studied 152 patients with supratentorial

BACKGROUND We sought to determine whether therapeutic temperature modulation (TTM) to treat fever after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with improved hospital complications and discharge outcomes. METHODS We performed a retrospective case-control study of patients admitted with

BACKGROUND Studies have shown the detrimental effect of increased temperature on brain injury. Fever is common after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The term 'central fever' is often used when no cause is identified. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to determine the correlation of fever with third

Hyperthermia worsens outcome in clinical and experimental studies of ischemic stroke. Thus, we tested whether hyperthermia aggravates intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in rats. A striatal hemorrhage was produced via an infusion of bacterial collagenase. In a preliminary experiment, we compared brain

BACKGROUND Central fever (CF) is defined as elevated temperature with no identifiable cause. We aimed to identify risk factors for developing CF among patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and to evaluate the impact of CF on outcome. METHODS Patients included in our prospective

OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence and prognostic significance of fever on presentation and during the subsequent 72 hours in patients with spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS We analyzed 251 patients. On admission, body temperature, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score,

BACKGROUND Extension of hemorrhage into the subarachnoid space in primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has recently been associated with poor outcomes, although the mechanisms underlying that association are uncertain. The objectives of this study are to confirm the association between fever and

BACKGROUND Fever is associated with worse functional outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH); however, there are few prospective data to quantify the relationship with health-related quality of life (HRQoL). We tested the hypothesis that increased burden of fever is independently associated

OBJECTIVE The deleterious effect of hyperthermia on intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has been studied. However, the results are not conclusive and new studies are needed to elucidate clinical factors that influence the poor outcome. The aim of this study was to identify the clinical factors (including

BACKGROUND Fever is common in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We sought to identify predictors of fever in patients hospitalized with ICH, and compare infectious fever with noninfectious fever. METHODS A retrospective review on consecutive spontaneous ICH patients from April 2009 to

BACKGROUND Neurological manifestations in dengue fever occur in <1 % of the patients and known to be due to multisystem dysfunction secondary to vascular leakage. Occurrence of wide spread cerebral haemorrhages with subdural hematoma during the leakage phase without profound thrombocytopenia and
