    ObjectiveTo describe the potential effects of Intracranial pressure monitoring on the outcome of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).MethodsThis study is a systematic review with meta-analysis. Patients with spontaneous ICH treated with intracranial pressure monitoring were included. The primary outcome was mortality at 6 months and in-hospital mortality. The secondary outcome was poor neurological function outcome at 6 months.ResultsThis analysis compares in-hospital and 6-month mortality rates between patients with intracranial pressure monitoring (ICPm) and those without (no ICPm). Although the ICPm group had a lower in-hospital mortality rate, it was not statistically significant (24.9% vs. 34.1%; OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.20 to 1.31, P = 0.16). Excluding patients with intraventricular hemorrhage revealed a significant reduction in in-hospital mortality for the ICPm group (23.5% vs. 43%; OR 0.39, 95% CI 0.29 to 0.53, P < 0.00001). For 6-month mortality, the ICPm group showed a significant reduction (32% vs. 39.6%; OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.61 to 0.94, P = 0.01), with the effect being more pronounced after excluding intraventricular hemorrhage patients (29.1% vs. 47.2%; OR 0.45, 95% CI 0.34 to 0.60, P < 0.0001). However, there were no statistically significant differences in 6-month functional outcomes between the groups. Increased ICP was associated with higher 3-month mortality (OR 1.12, 95% CI 1.07 to 1.18, P < 0.00001) and lower likelihood of good functional outcomes (OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.18, P < 0.00001).ConclusionsElevated ICP is associated with increased mortality and poor prognosis in ICH patients. Although continuous intracranial pressure monitoring may reduce short-term mortality rates in specific subgroups of ICH patients, it does not improve neurological functional outcomes. While potential patient populations may benefit from ICP monitoring, more research is needed to screen suitable populations for ICP monitoring.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
