Abstract

Background

End stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis (HD) increases mortality among patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical characteristics and outcome of ICH patients with ESRD on HD versus propensity-score matched controls.

Methods

This is a single center retrospective study. Consecutive ICH admissions at the University of California, Irvine Medical Center from January 1, 2018 to July 31, 2022 were analyzed.

Results

Among 347 ICH admissions that met inclusion criteria, 24 patients (6.92%) had ESRD on HD. Compared to patients without ESRD, patients with ESRD on HD had significantly higher rate of diabetes mellitus (79.2% vs. 36.8%, p < 0.01) and in-hospital mortality (25% vs. 7.43%, p < 0.01). There were no significant differences in demographics, other comorbidities, clinical characteristics, good (mRS score 0–3) or poor (mRS score 4–5) functional outcomes, rate of comfort care and the time to comfort care decision between the 2 groups. After propensity score matching, the ESRD group had a significantly higher in-hospital mortality rate (27.3% vs. 8%, p = 0.012) and a lower rate of obesity (9.1% vs. 34.1%, p = 0.02). Among patients who died during admission, ESRD on HD status did not inadvertently influence end-of-life care decisions. Univariate logistic regression and area under curve analysis showed that ICH score ≥ 3 was a predictor of increased mortality in both ESRD and non-ESRD groups.

Conclusions

ICH patients with ESRD on HD had significantly higher in-hospital mortality and lower rate of obesity than propensity score matched controls, suggesting a survival benefit from obesity. ICH score ≥ 3 is an independent predictor for poor outcomes in both ESRD and non-ESRD groups.
