Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a retrospective observational study to investigate the clinical, analytical and neuroimaging data generated during routine clinical management of intracerebral hemorrhage. The study will review the data from about 500 patients attended during the last ten years in the Neurology Department of Hospital Parc Taulí de Sabadell. The aim is to measure the size of the lesion in neuroimage (TC and MRI), the edema, the alterations in diffusion weighted images and to correlate this data with clinical parameters and analytical measurements. With this approach investigators plan to investigate the incidence of hematoma growth, the role of perilesional edema and diffusion changes, and the relation between neuroimaging findings and clinical outcome. The study also try to establish significant correlations between clinical and analytical data, the clinical outcome and and the magnitude of changes in neuroimaging.
