Brief summary

The purpose of the present study is to explore the efficacy of small doses of oral glibenclamide on brain edema after acute primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and improving the prognosis of patients.

Detailed description

In order to explore the efficacy and safety of oral glibenclamide on brain edema after acute primary ICH, a web-based 1:1 randomization process will be employed to assign 220 subjects to Glibenclamide group (giving standard management for ICH plus glibenclamide) or Control group (giving standard management for ICH). The investigators will make a neurofunctional assessment at baseline, and 3 days, 7 days, 90 days after enrollment. The investigators also assess the midline shift, and the change in the volume of ICH and perihematomal edema (PHE) from the initial to follow-up (3 days and 7days after enrollment). The serious adverse events of all-cause mortality, cardiac-related and blood glucose-related adverse events will be collected to assess the safety of glibenclamide.

Interventions

Giving glibenclamide tablets, 1.25 mg 3 times daily, orally or through gastric tube, for 7 consecutive days after enrollment.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The proportion of death or major disability90 days after the onsetUnfavourable outcome including death and disability is defined as patients achieving modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≥3. The mRS is used for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of patients with stroke or other neurological diseases. The total score of the scale runs from 0 (perfect health without symptoms) to 6 (death).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The change in the volume of PHE from the initial to follow-up CT scans3 days after onset
The change in the volume of ICH from the initial to follow-up CT scans3 days after onset
The proportion of death or major disability3 days after onsetUnfavourable outcome including death and disability is defined as patients achieving modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≥3. The mRS is used for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of patients with stroke or other neurological diseases. The total score of the scale runs from 0 (perfect health without symptoms) to 6 (death).
National Institute of Health stroke scale3 days after onsetThe National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is used by healthcare providers to evaluate the impairment caused by stroke. The total score of the scale runs from 0 to 42. The higher score is an indicative of more severe impairment.
Glasgow Coma Scale3 days after onsetThe Glasgow Coma Scale is a scale for measuring the conscious state of patients with neurological diseases. The total score of the scale runs from 3 (deep coma or death) to 15 (fully awake person).
Barthel Index3 days after onsetThe Barthel Index scale is used to measure performance in activities of daily living (ADL). The total score of the scale runs from 0 to 100. The high score of the scale represents favourable performance in activities of daily life.
