Clinical characteristics, risk factors, and outcomes associated with neonatal hemorrhagic stroke: a population-based case-control study [published online January 17, 2017]. [neurologyadvisor.com]

Whereas neonatal hemorrhage is a relatively common occurrence, affecting 40% to 60% of infants delivered before 32 weeks of gestation, fetal intracranial hemorrhage is quite rare. [mhmedical.com]

The sample size of 1038 pregnancies was based on an intracranial hemorrhage rate of 20 percent in the placebo and less than 12 percent in the phenobarbital group; 90 percent power; a 5 percent two-tailed type 1 error; and an 8 percent noncompliance rate [clinicaltrials.gov]

Neurologic manifestations like neonatal seizure, decreased level of consciousness, increased intracranial pressure are the most common presentations of ICH in term newborns. [intechopen.com]

Signs and symptoms of intracranial hemorrhages Symptoms of intracranial hemorrhages in infants will vary based on the type and severity of the bleed, but include the following: Lethargy Neonatal seizures Apnea Feeding difficulties Irritability Bulging [abclawcenters.com]

The most common neurological manifestations included focal seizures, disturbed consciousness level, and tense anterior fontanel. The most common general manifestations included pallor, respiratory distress, and bleeding from other sites. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Clinical findings included multiple ecchymoses, gastric hemorrhage, hematuria, a tense fontanelle, head circumference at the 95th percentile, hypotonia, and ocular bobbing and nystagmus. [pediatricneurologybriefs.com]

Focal seizures, disturbed consciousness level, tense anterior fontanel, unexplained anemia, and respiratory distress were the major presenting signs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Hematocrit decreased from 29% at birth to 15% at 6 hours of age. Prothrombin time was 100 sec. Cranial ultrasound showed hemorrhage in the tentorium and hydrocephalus. CT also revealed a large cerebellar hemorrhage. [pediatricneurologybriefs.com]

The clinical manifestations and clinical findings vary widely, ranging from asymptomatic to life-threatening bleeding, including intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), with prolonged prothrombin time, normal partial thromboplastin time and normal platelet counts [dovepress.com]
