Objective  To investigate the outcome and prognostic factors of hospital mortality in patients with acute cerebrovascular disease requiring mechanical ventilation.Methods  Data from 94 patients with acute cerebrovascular disease in central intensive care unit(ICU) were collected and retrospectively analyzed.Prognostic factors of hospital mortality were analyzed by univariate statistics and multivariate logistic regression.Results  Hospital mortality was 53.2%(50/94).There was significance diference in parameters such as APACHE II score,blood glucose,lengh of hospital stay,lengh of ICU stay,time of mechanical ventilation,incision of trachea,lung infections,lesion loci and its naturer between the survival and non-survival groups(all P lt;0.05).Multivariate logistic regression revealed that blood glucose,lung infections,diseased region under tentorium of cerebellum,time of mechanical ventilation were independent prognostic risk factors of hospital mortality(all P lt;0.05).Whereas the lengh of ICU stay was protective factor(P lt;0.05).Conclusion  The hospital mortality is considerably high in patients with acute cerebrovascular disease requiring mechanical ventilation. The prognostic factors such as blood glucose and lung infections should be evaluate cautiously and prevented aggressively.
