Abstract

Background: Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) stroke is characterized by neurological dysfunction, caused by focal collection of blood within the brain parenchyma or ventricular system that is not caused by trauma. Hypertension is one of the main risk factors for intracerebral haemorrhage. Hypertensive crisis, which is a more severe type of uncontrolled hypertension may aggravate the cognitive outcomes. The aim of this study was to compare cognitive function between intracerebral haemorrhage stroke patients with and without hypertensive crisis. Methods: This study was a retrospective comparative analytic study, combined with a case-control study from August to November 2020. All medical records of patients with intracerebral haemorrhage, who were admitted to Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung in 2019, were collected. The total score of mini-mental state examination (MMSE) which was recorded in the medical record was taken and compared between groups using the Mann-Whitney test. The MMSE was conducted on the day of discharge, and the minimum education level of the patients was elementary school.Results: We found a total of 109 medical records with ICH, 67 of which  were with hypertensive crisis. The median MMSE score in the hypertensive crisis group was slightly higher than in the non-hypertensive crisis group. Furthermore, there was no statistical difference in MMSE scores between intracerebral haemorrhage patients with and without hypertensive crisis (p-value=0.439). Conclusion: There is no difference in cognitive function between intracerebral haemorrhage patients with and without hypertensive crisis. Further study is of great value to explore the relation between intracerebral haemorrhage patients with and without hypertensive crisis.

Abstract

Background: Pneumonia is a common complication of ischemic stroke that may worsens brain injury, leading to cognitive impairment as well as patient outcome. The aim of this study was to compare cognitive function in ischemic stroke patients with and without pneumonia.Methods: This study was a comparative numerical analytic retrospective cross-sectional study that was conducted from September 2020 to February 2021. This study used data from ischemic stroke patients treated at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital in 2019 with the total sampling method. Data were stratified into patients with pneumonia and without pneumonia. The mini mental state examination (MMSE) was used to measure cognitive function in both groups and  scores were compared using the Mann-Whitney Test.Result: Of the 164 data, 25 were patients with pneumonia and 139 without pneumonia. Male patients were predominantly prevalent in the pneumonia and non-pneumonia groups. Hemiparesis was the most common neurological deficit. The MMSE score was significantly lower in the pneumonia group (22.6 ± 5.4 vs. 24.7 ± 4.8, respectively; p-value=0.032). Conclusion: Cognitive function is more prevalent in ischemic stroke patient with pneumonia compared to non-pneumonia. However, other factors such as recurrent stroke and possible vascular risk factors should be considered for future studies to better identify the relationship between ischemic stroke and pneumonia.

Abstract

Background: There are high prevalence of cognitive impairment in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) that may worsen the patients’ outcomes. Pneumonia, as the significant infection complication in stroke patients, may aggravate the decline in the cognitive outcome of patients. This study aimed to explore the cognitive outcomes among patients with or without pneumonia among patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective analytical comparative numeric study was conducted from September 2020 to February 2021, using secondary data of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage admitted to the Department of Neurology Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital in the year 2019. A total sampling method was employed. Data on pneumonia in stroke patients was retrieved, consisting of patients with pneumonia and without pneumonia. Data on Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores as the measures of cognitive outcomes were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test.Results: There were 108 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage included. There was a statistically significant difference (p value 0.049) in MMSE scores with  median MMSE score for pneumonia patients (n = 27) and non-pneumonia patients (n = 81) were 25 and 21, respectively.Conclusions: Cognitive outcome is worse in patients with pneumonia than those without pneumonia. Early intervention is needed for intracerebral hemorrhage patients who develop pneumonia as a complication to improve the cognitive outcome.
