Abstract:

Introduction: Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) is a vascular lesion with high prevalence and devastating outcome, especially related to morbidity. Heterogeneity of ICH case caused by various factors pose problems, one of which is predicting the outcome. Serum ferritin has shown to have a significant value in terms of predicting outcome in ICH patients.

Method: This is an analytic study with a prospective cohort design. We analyzed the Glasgow Outcome Discharge Scale (GODS) of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhages who underwent surgery and analyze its correlation with pre-operative serum ferritin value.

Result: Sixty subjects with spontaneous ICH who underwent surgical treatment was enrolled with a mean age of 54.50 years old. Twenty-nine patients (48.3%) assigned to poor GODS and 31 patients (51.7%) assigned to good GODS. Mean value of serum ferritin in poor GODS group is 342.75 ±336.019 as for good GODS group the mean ferritin value is 308.30 ±660.968 with p-value > 0.05.

Conclusion: There is no significant difference between serum ferritin value and GODS score in patients with spontaneous ICH who underwent surgical treatment. Further study with larger and less diverse subjects is needed.
