What should the blood pressure control be for brainstem hemorrhage?
For patients with brainstem hemorrhage, it is important to maintain stable blood pressure after the bleeding. The ideal blood pressure should be controlled between 130/80 and 140/90. This is because the blood pressure should not be controlled too low. If the blood pressure is too low, it can lead to insufficient perfusion pressure in the brain tissue or brainstem, thus exacerbating the state of brain tissue ischemia and hypoxia, which may aggravate the local brainstem ischemia and cause new brainstem infarcts. Additionally, blood pressure should not be too high, as excessively high blood pressure can lead to primary brainstem hemorrhage, coagulation dysfunction, and situations where bleeding is difficult to stop. Moreover, it can cause rebleeding of the brainstem, also known as secondary hemorrhage, which, once it occurs, can be life-threatening for the patient.
