Abstract

60.8% of patients exhibited postoperative brain temperature rhythms after intracerebral hemorrhage surgery.

  • Circadian rhythms in brain temperature and heart rate were identified in 60.8% and 36.4% of patients, respectively.
  • Transitions in brain temperature and heart rate rhythms occurred in 35.1% and 43.2% of patients.
  • Age, initial Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, brain temperature rhythm during the second postoperative period, and heart rate average during the first period were identified as independent predictors of 1-year functional outcomes.
  • Only the initial GCS score was associated with mortality.
  • Dynamic changes in brain temperature and heart rate rhythms after surgery may provide additional prognostic information beyond standard clinical assessments.
