Abstract:
Objective To investigate the predictive significance of thromboelastography ( TEG) for early neurological deterioration ( END) in patients with acute cerebral infarction. Methods This was a case-control study. From March 2016 to August 2017,a total of 195 consecutive patients with acute mild to moderate cerebral infarction (National Institute of Health stroke scale [NIHSS] score <16) within 24 h after onset were registered prospectively. The demography, clinical data, and laboratory test results were collected. The TEG examinations were completed after admission. According to whether having END or not within 3 d after admission,they were divided into either a END group (n=60) or a non-END group (n=135). A logistic regression model was established to analyze the relationship between TEG parameters and END. Results Of the 195 eligible patients,60 (30. 8%) experienced END. TEG reaction time (RT) and kinetic time ( RT) in patients of the END group were significantly less than those of the non-END group (4. 1 ± 1. 1 min vs. 4. 4 ± 1. 2 min;1. 3 ± 0. 3 min vs. 1. 5 ± 0. 4 min,t=3. 395 and 3. 093,respectively;all P<0. 01). The proportions of the shortened RT and KT in patients of the END group were significantly higher than those of the non-END group (80. 0% [48/60] vs. 63. 0% [85/135],18. 3% [11/60] vs. 8. 1% [11/135]). There were significant differences (χ2 =5. 560 and 4. 305,all P <0. 05). After adjusting for the factors of age,sex,diabetes mellitus,smoking,baseline NIHSS score,and serum hypersensitive C-reactive protein, logistic regression analysis showed that the shortened RT was independently correlated with END (OR,1. 612,95% CI 1. 094-2. 376,P=0. 016). Conclusion The shortened TEG coagulation time RT on admission has a certain predictive value for END within 3 d after onset of acute mild to moderate cerebral infarction.
