About two–thirds of all patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage suffer from systemic hypertension. Additionally systemic hypertension is the main factor indicating a poor prognosis of intracerebral hemorrhage. This has been shown in our statistical evaluation of 117 cases of conservatively treated spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. More than 48% of the hypertensive patients died, but only 30% of the normotensive patients (Fig. 1). In an experimental study we investigated the influence of systemic hypertension and normotension on epidural pressure and on the formation of brain edema during the first 12 h after artificial intracerebral hemorrhage.
