Abstract: Objective To explore the relationship between the hematoma enlargement after intracerebral and level of blood glucose after admitted.Methods Data of all patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were reviewed retrospectively.All 225 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were divided into the hematoma enlargement group and non-hematoma enlargement group according to Brott's diagnostic criteria.The relationship between the hematoma enlargement and level of blood glucose in patients after admitted was analyzed statistically.Results The incidence of hematoma enlargement correlated significantly with level of blood glucose after admitted(P<0.01).The level of blood glucose of patients with hematoma enlargement after admitted increases more than those of patients without hematoma enlargement(P<0.01).Conclusion If blood glucose over 7.8 mmol/L,the attention should be paid for occurrence of hematoma enlargement,and some effective treatment to lower the level of blood glucose should be taken to improve prognosis of the patients.
