Abstrakt: Background and Purpose: Early differentiation between acute ischaemic (AIS) and haemorrhagic stroke (ICH), based on cerebral and peripheral hemodynamic parameters, would be advantageous to allow for pre-hospital interventions. In this preliminary study, we explored the potential of multiple parameters, including dynamic cerebral autoregulation, for phenotyping and differentiating each stroke sub-type. Methods: Eighty patients were included with clinical stroke syndromes confirmed by computed tomography within 48 h of symptom onset. Continuous recordings of bilateral cerebral blood velocity (transcranial Doppler ultrasound), end-tidal CO2 (capnography), electrocardiogram (ECG), and arterial blood pressure (ABP, Finometer) were used to derive 67 cerebral and peripheral parameters. Results: A total of 68 patients with AIS (mean age 66.8 ± SD 12.4 years) and 12 patients with ICH (67.8 ± 16.2 years) were included. The median ± SD NIHSS of the cohort was 5 ± 4.6. Statistically significant differences between AIS and ICH were observed for (i) an autoregulation index (ARI) that was higher in the unaffected hemisphere (UH) for ICH compared to AIS (5.9 ± 1.7 vs. 4.9 ± 1.8 p = 0.07); (ii) coherence function for both hemispheres in different frequency bands (AH, p < 0.01; UH p < 0.02); (iii) a baroreceptor sensitivity (BRS) for the low-frequency (LF) bands that was higher for AIS (6.7 ± 4.2 vs. 4.10 ± 2.13 ms/mmHg, p = 0.04) compared to ICH, and that the mean gain of the BRS in the LF range was higher in the AIS than in the ICH (5.8 ± 5.3 vs. 2.7 ± 1.8 ms/mmHg, p = 0.0005); (iv) Systolic and diastolic velocities of the affected hemisphere (AH) that were significantly higher in ICH than in AIS (82.5 ± 28.09 vs. 61.9 ± 18.9 cm/s), systolic velocity (p = 0.002), and diastolic velocity (p = 0.05). Conclusion: Further multivariate modelling might improve the ability of multiple parameters to discriminate between AIS and ICH and warrants future prospective studies of ultra-early classification (<4 h post symptom onset) of stroke sub-types.
