Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial[Influence of mannitol on early enlargement of hematoma in hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage].
To probe into the influence of mannitol on early enlargement of hematoma in hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage, and to discuss how to use mannitol correctly. ⋯ Improper use of mannitol within 24 h after the onset may increase the incidence of early enlargement of hematoma in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage, and exacerbate the patient's condition. For patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage with light intracranial hypertension, especialy those within 24 h after the onset, mannitol should not be used blindly, in case that it enlarges the hematoma and exacerbates patient's condition.
