Abstract

Background and Purpose: There is limited information on symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) in stroke patients without thrombolysis. This study aimed to evaluate the risk factors of sICH and the association between sICH and the prognosis at 3 and 12 months in acute ischemic stroke patients without thrombolysis.Methods: Data originated from the Chinese Acute Ischemic Stroke Treatment Outcome Registry. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were used to screen the risk factors of sICH. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the association of sICH with poor outcome and all-cause mortality.Results: Totally, 9,484 patients were included, of which 69 (0.73%) had sICH. Atrial fibrillation (odds ratio [OR], 3.682; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.945–6.971; p < 0.001), history of tumors (OR, 2.956; 95% CI, 1.115–7.593; p = 0.024), and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score on admission ([6–15: OR, 2.344; 95% CI, 1.365–4.024; p = 0.002] [>15: OR, 4.731; 95% CI, 1.648–13.583; p = 0.004]) were independently associated with sICH. After adjustment of the confounders, patients with sICH had a higher risk of poor outcome (OR, 1.983; 95% CI, 1.117–3.521; p = 0.018) at 3 months and that of all-cause mortality at 3 (OR, 6.135; 95% CI, 2.328–16.169; p < 0.001) and 12 months (OR, 3.720; 95% CI, 1.513–9.148; p = 0.004).Conclusion: sICH occurred in 0.73% of acute ischemic stroke patients without thrombolysis and was associated with a worse prognosis at 3 and 12 months. Atrial fibrillation, history of tumors, and NIHSS score at admission were independent risk factors of sICH.
