Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]; Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Sara Mehrsefat, M.D. [2]

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][5][6]

Laboratory findings

Laboratory findings for intracerebral hemorrhage may include the following:[7]

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[3][8][9]
  • Increased PT/APTT/INR
BUN/Creatinine[4]
  • 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
Lipid profile
  • Decreased levels of lipids
  • Associated with higher incidence of ICH
Blood glucose levels[10]
  • Increased or decreased levels of blood glucose
Cardiac enzymes[11][12]
  • Increased serum levels of Trop I, Trop T, CK-MB
  • May suggest ongoing myocardial ischemia (left ventricular ischemia)
Pregnancy test
  • Serum and urine B-HCG
  • Rule out pregnancy in all female patients with hemorrhagic stroke
