Hi guys - giving a lecture next month on stroke and ICH. As we don't have a nsg program at my hospital, was hoping to poll the audience here.
Re: craniectomy for ICH, it seems there is strong evidence for posterior fossa hemorrhage, easy peasy. I'm curious what y'all are doing for supratentorial hemorrhage though. I see there's one study that if its within 1cm of the cortex that might be beneficial but does not seem to improve functional outcomes, is that how you guys practice? What about blood in the ventricles, mass effect? just an EVD? That's our practice pattern here, but idk if thats actually because taking off the skull isnt beneficial or because the PAs can come in to do the drain without an attending.
What about blood pressure? We're sticking with <160 here, seems the data on <140 is not great. Is that mostly what y'all do?
Any other pearls you'd like your EM colleagues to know?
