dc.description.abstractObjective: To assess the risk factors in patients with a history of spontaneous intracerebral hematoma, to determine the effects of these risk factors on mortality and morbidity and recurrence rate during the 12-month follow up period. Material and Method: Two hundred and fifteen patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage treated between January 2008 and June 2010 in Trakya University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Neurology were included in this study. Patients who suffered from a stroke due to arteriovenous malformation, subarachnoidal, epidural and subdural hemorrhage and subdural hematoma were excluded. Results: It was determined that male gender, age and hypertension are risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage, whereas diabetes mellitus, smoking and alcohol usage are not. Due to the small number of patients using anti-aggregant and anti-coagulant medication, a statistically significant association to intracerebral hemorrhage could not be defined. Age over 65, hypertension, presence of hyperglycemia at the time of admission, size of hematoma, presence of intraventricular hemorrhage and National Health Institute Stroke Scale score at the time of admission are important prognostic factors. The influence of age 65 and older was seen to be an independent risk factor, whereas presence of hypertension was analyzed to increase the recurrence rate. Discussion: It is vital to be aware of the risk factors of intracerebral hemorrhage in order to take preventive measures. Prognostic factors in intracerebral hemorrhage must be recognized to relieve the economical burden of the healthcare system.en_US
