Overview

Routine laboratory studies in patient with intracerebral hemorrhage should include complete blood count (CBC) with platelets, electrolytes, renal function, coagulation studies (prothrombin time (PT), partial thromboplastin time (PTT), and INR), toxicology screen, blood glucose level, and pregnancy test in women of childbearing age.[1][2][3][4]

Laboratory findings

Blood test Test result Rationale
Complete blood count and platelet
BMP/Osmolarity
  • Increased or decreased serum NA2+, K+, Ca2+
  • Change in osmolarity
PT/APTT/INR
  • Increased PT/APTT/INR
BUN/Creatinine
  • Increased BUN and creatinine
  • May be associated with poor prognosis in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage and hematoma expansion
Toxicology screen/Serum alcohol level
  • Increased levels of serum
HbA1C
  • Increased levels of HbA1c
Blood glucose levels[5]
  • Increased or decreased levels of blood glucose
Cardiac enzymes
  • Increased serum levels of Trop I, Trop T, CK-MB
  • Elevated Trop T levels are associated with poor prognosis
  • May suggest ongoing myocardial ischemia[6]
Pregnancy test
  • Serum and urine B-HCG
  • Rule out pregnancy in all female patients with hemorrhagic stroke
