Clinical Observation of the Early Treatment of Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage with Free Radical Scavenger

【Objective】To evaluate the clinical efficacy of free radical scavenger on the early treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage.【Methods】Fifty nine cases of acute cerebral hemorrhage were divided into treatment group and control group randomly.The patients in treatment group were injected intravenously twice daily with 30 mg edaravone for 14 days.Meantime,routine treatment for acute cerebral hemorrhage was carried on.The same treatment except injection with edaravone was implemented in the control group.Neurological functional deficit scores were utilized for assessment before treatment.On the 14th day after treatment,the patients were assessed again and the efficacy was recorded.【Results】After 14 days treatment,the neurological functional deficit scores of treated group were 85.8±17.1,whereas those of the control group were 68.7±22.7.There was significant difference between two groups(P0.05).There were also significant differences between two groups in terms of apparent effect rate(33.3 % in treated group and 10.2 % in control group,P0.05) and improvement rate(66.7 % in treated group,44.7 % in control group,P0.05).【Conclusion】Free radical scavenger can accelerate the recovery of neural function after acute cerebral hemorrhage.
