Summary

Perihematoma edema (PHE), as the major injury for intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) involves more than the initial tissue damage induced directly by the hematoma. How to improve hypoxia in perihematoma seems to be a promising therapeutic candidate paradigm for ICH due to its pivotal role in the pathogenesis of perihematomas. Normobaric hyperoxia (NBO), supplied by a face mask (such as oxygen storage face mask) with atmosphere pressure (1ATA = 101.325 kPa, 100% O2), has been considered a safe, convenient, and promising therapy for correcting various diseases and thus garnered great attention in recent years. The previous study identified that early NBO could attenuate blood-brain barrier damage, rescue penumbra and finally improve the prognosis of ischemic stroke in patients with delayed rt-PA treatment. Therefore, given the profound effectiveness in the ischemic penumbra, we hypothesized that NBO might yield additional benefits for the ischemic-hypoxic tissues surrounding the hematoma in patients with ICH. Although many clinical trials have shown the effectiveness and safety of NBO in treating ischemic stroke, there is currently a lack of trials focusing on using NBO to treat ICH. Accordingly, we conducted a proof-of-concept, single-center, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NBO in treating ICH patients so as to explore an innovative adjuvant therapy for ICH.
