The Effect of Epileptic Seizure Occurring After Intracranial Hemorrhages on Early Mortality

Abstract

Introduction: Intracranial hemorrhages (ICH) are at high risk for long-term morbidity and morbidity in terms of complications such as epilepsy. In our study, we aimed to determine the effect of epileptic seizure seen after ICH on early mortality and to provide information to the literature. Methods: My study was done retrospectively. A total of 238 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of ICH who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. In the classification of the seizure as early and late; early seizure up to the 14th day after bleeding; Seizures observed on the 14th day and above were classified as late seizures. Results: In the demographic data There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of age. Seizure + 57.7% of cases were male; seizure – 52.7% of the cases were male and the groups were not different in terms of gender. When the effect of seizure type on 30-day mortality was examined, it was observed that mortality was significantly higher in cases with late seizures. Conclusions: We determined that the epileptic seizure seen after ICH has an effect on mortality. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful in terms of mortality in cases with seizures. Especially in cases with late seizures, mortality is higher than in cases with early seizures, so it is necessary to be careful in terms of mortality in cases with late seizures. In addition, we found that the use of antiepileptic drugs did not affect mortality.
