Hemorragia intracerebral espontanea revisión de la literatura

Abstract

Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage remains a cause of significant morbidity and mortality around the world. After the cerebrovascular accident of ischemic origin, it constitutes the second cause of morbidity and mortality associated with vascular brain pathology. It has been shown that excellent medical care is associated with a favorable prognosis in the case of these patients. An important deterioration occurs in the first hours of development of the condition. More than 20% of patients will show a deterioration of more than 2 points in the Glasgow comma scale from diagnosis to arrival at the hospital. In view of the repercussions that this condition presents, a search of the literature was conducted in order to update the clinician on the management of this pathology in the topics related to arterial hypertension, surgical intervention, management of seizures and finally the prevention of recurrence which is very important especially in the first year of the event.
