Abstract

Objectives

The purpose of this study was to analyze the new combined indicators on noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT) to predict functional outcome at discharge, compared to previously individual radiological NCCT signs.

Methods

Patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) who underwent baseline CT scan were retrospectively analyzed. Black hole (BH) sign, blend sign (BS), island sign (IS), swirl sign (SwS), Barras classification, any hypodensity, any irregularity, and two combined novel indicators—Combined Barras Total Score (CBTS) and Hematoma Maturity Score—were assessed independently by two radiologists blinded to clinical information. Patients were trichotomized depending on the disability or dependency at discharge according to the Modified Rankin Scale (mRS): no symptoms or no significant/mild disability (mRS 0–2); moderate or severe disability (mRS 3–5); and mortality (mRS 6).

Results

One hundred fourteen patients with spontaneous ICH confirmed by NCCT were included in the analysis. Multivariable statistical analysis was adjusted for anticoagulation, hematoma volume, ventricular expansion, hypertension, blood glucose level at admission, age, and history of atrial fibrillation and demonstrated that any hypodensity (OR 4.768, p 0.006), any irregularity (OR 4.768, p 0.006), CBTS ≥ 4 (OR 3.205, p 0.025), and the new Hematoma Maturity Score (Immature) (OR 5.872, p 0.006) are independent predictors of functional outcome at discharge.

Conclusions

The new concept of the Hematoma Maturity Score was the radiological sign on NCCT with the highest impact on clinical outcome in comparison with the rest of the evaluated radiological signs.

Key Points

• This is the first manuscript where density and shape characteristics of the ICH had been evaluated together and integrated in a new Hematoma Maturity Score.

• The new Hematoma Maturity Score is the radiological sign on NCCT with the highest impact on clinical outcome at discharge.
