Impact of Supratentorial Cerebral Hemorrhage on the Complexity of Heart Rate Variability in Acute Stroke.

ABSTRACT: Acute stroke commonly affects cardiac autonomic responses resulting in reduced heart rate variability (HRV). Multiscale entropy (MSE) is a novel non-linear method to quantify the complexity of HRV. This study investigated the influence of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) locations and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) on the complexity of HRV. We recruited 93 supratentorial ICH patients (male 59%, mean age 61 years), and the locations of ICH included basal ganglia (n?=?40), thalamus (n?=?35), and lobar (n?=?18) group. Continuous one-hour electrocardiography signals were obtained from patients after admission, and the complexity index was defined as the area under the MSE curve. The complexity index was lower in lobar ICH (21.6?±?7.9) than basal ganglia (27.9?±?6.4) and thalamus (28.5?±?7.2) groups. The complexity index was inversely correlated with initial stroke severity (r?=?-0.26), size of hematoma (r?=?-0.35) and ICH score (r?=?-0.26), especially among patients with intraventricular hemorrhage (r?=?-0.60, -0.60, and -0.41 respectively). A higher complexity can predict a good functional outcome (adjusted odds ratio 1.09, 95% confidence intervals 1.00-1.19) at post-stroke 3 months. In summary, more severe stroke and larger hematoma volume resulted in lower complexity of HRV. Lobar hemorrhage and IVH had great impacts on the cardiac autonomic function.

Project description:BackgroundThe relationship between heart rate variability (HRV) changes potentially indicating autonomic dysregulation following spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and functional outcome has not yet been fully elucidated. This study investigated the effects of HRV during the initial 96 h after admission on 90-day functional outcome in ICH patients.MethodsWe included patients with spontaneous ICH in a prospective cohort single-center study. Continuous HR data were retrieved from the Intellispace Critical Care and Anesthesia information system (Philips Healthcare) and analyzed within the following time intervals: 0-2, 0-8, 0-12, 0-24, 0-48, 0-72, and 8-16, 16-24, 24-48, 48-72, 72-96 h after admission. HRV was determined from all available HR values by calculating the successive variability (SV), standard deviation (SD), and coefficient of variation (CV). Low HRV was set as SD ≤ 11.4 ms, and high HRV as SD > 11.4 ms. The clinical severity of ICH was assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and functional outcome using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Good functional outcome was defined as mRS 0-2.ResultsThe cohort included 261 ICH patients (mean age ± SD 69.6 ± 16.5 years, 48.7% female, median NIHSS 6 (2, 12), median ICH score 1 (0, 2), of whom 106 (40.6%) had good functional outcome. All patients had the lowest HRV at admission, which increased during the first two days. Comparing ICH patients with low HRV (n = 141) and high HRV (n = 118), those with good outcome showed significantly lower HRV during the first three days (0-72 h: HRV SD good outcome 10.6 ± 3.5 ms vs. poor outcome 12.0 ± 4.0 ms; p = 0.004). Logistic regression revealed that advanced age, high premorbid mRS, and high NIHSS at admission were significant predictors of poor functional outcome, while reduced SD of HRV showed a non-significant trend towards good functional outcome (0-72 h: OR 0.898; CI 0.800-1.008; p = 0.067).ConclusionsOur results indicate autonomic dysfunction with sympathetic hyperactivity after spontaneous ICH, as reflected by the evidence of the lower HRV in the first days. Initially increased sympathetic tone appears to have a protective effect, as suggested by the comparatively lower HRV in patients with good functional outcome at the first days.
