Brief summary

In 2020, IntraCerebral Haemorraghe (ICH) remains the most devastating type of stroke. Besides stroke unit care, no specific treatment has been proven effective yet. Perihaematomal oedema (PHO) could be a promising therapeutic target. However, the mechanisms, the natural history as well as the clinical impact of this PHO remain unclear. The COPITCH study has been designed to answer these questions

Interventions

Inclusion criteria

* With a spontaneous ICH, i.e. non traumatic * Admitted within 12 hours of stroke onset. For wake-up strokes, time of last seen well will be considered as stroke onset * Patient insured under the French social security * Consent form signed

Exclusion criteria

* Pure intraventricular haemorrhages * "secondary" ICH: ICH resulting from intracranial vascular malformation, intracranial venous thrombosis, head trauma or tumour; haemorrhagic transformation within an infarct * Pre-admission modified Rankin score of 4 or 5 * Life expectancy of less than 1 year related to comorbidities (end stage cancer, end stage organ failure) * Pregnancy or breastfeeding or Women of childbearing age without effective contraception (a pregnancy test will be done) * Adults who are deprived of their liberty by judicial or administrative decision * Referral from other hospitals * Contra-indication to MRI : claustrophobia, ocular metallic foreign bodies (accidental or other) or in a risk area (nervous or vascular system);irremovable implanted medical device (pacemaker, neurostimulator, cochlear implants and others);metallic heart valve (mainly old heart valves) or vascular clips previously implanted on cranial aneurysms; gadolinium allergy * No consent form

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Poor functional outcome defined as a modified Rankin Scale of 4 or moreat 3 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
overall distribution of the modified Rankin scale at 3- and 12 monthsat 3 months and 12 monthsThe modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. The scale runs from 0-6, running from perfect health without symptoms to death.
Early neurological deterioration defined as more than 4 points on the NIHSS scoreat 96 hoursThe NIHSS score (NIH Stroke Scale) is used to monitor the progression of an ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. It is rated from 0 to 42 points. Depending on the result, a distinction is made from Minor stroke to Severe stroke
all-cause mortality at 3 and 12 monthsat 3 and 12 months
Cognitive declineat 3 months, at 12 monthsCognitive decline defined as a score on MOCA test below 27
