Review question: What is the safety and efficacy of measures to lower blood pressure versus standard treatment in people with acute intracerebral haemorrhage?</h3></div><div id="ch5.s1.2"><h3>1.2. Introduction</h3><p>Elevated blood pressure is common after acute stroke. Patients may have pre-existing hypertension or blood pressure changes may occur as a result of disturbed cardiovascular autonomic regulation. Evidence has consistently shown that there is no benefit of lowering blood pressure acutely in ischaemic stroke however there is still clinical uncertainty regarding the safety and efficacy of lowering blood pressure in acute intracerebral haemorrhage. Uncontrolled hypertension in acute intracerebral haemorrhage may result in haemorrhagic expansion and a worse neurological outcome, however there is clinical concern that aggressive blood pressure lowering may reduce blood flow to the brain and other vital organs resulting in adverse outcomes such as cerebral and cord ischaemia, acute kidney injury, and myocardial infarction.</p><p>People with intracerebral haemorrhage have a mortality of around 40% with 60-70% of those who survive having moderate or severe disability<a class="bibr" href="#ch5.ref54" rid="ch5.ref54"><sup>54</sup></a> and there are currently no treatment options beyond supportive management. If lowering blood pressure is safe and effective this may provide the opportunity improve the outcome in this type of stroke. As a number of clinical trials addressing the safety and efficacy of blood pressure lowering in acute intracerebral haemorrhage have been completed since the original guideline was published in 2008 it was important to review the current evidence regarding this clinical question.</p></div><div id="ch5.s1.3"><h3>1.3.

At a total cost of &#x000a3;250.66 per person, the cost of treating 39 people with haemorrhagic stroke is &#x000a3;9,776 (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK577866/table/ch5.tab6/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch5tab6" rid-ob="figobch5tab6">Table 6</a>).

Resource costs</h3><p>The recommendation made by the committee based on this review (see section <b>Error! Reference source not found.</b>) that rapid blood pressure lowering should be offered in people with acute intracerebral haemorrhage and systolic blood pressure between 150 and 220 mmHg and presenting within 6 hours of symptom onset is not expected to have a substantial impact on resources to the NHS in England. The committee also made a recommendation based on this review (see section <b>Error! Reference source not found.</b>) that controlled blood pressure lowering should be &#x02018;considered&#x02019; for people with acute intracerebral haemorrhage who present beyond 6 hours of symptom onset or have a systolic Stroke and transient ischaemic attack in over 16s: evidence review E FINAL (May 2019) Restoration or maintenance of homeostasis blood pressure greater than 220 mmHg. Unlike for stronger recommendations stating that interventions should be adopted, it is not possible to make a judgement about the potential resource impact to the NHS of recommendations regarding interventions that could be used, as uptake is too difficult to predict. There was also uncertainty about current practice in this population. However, the committee noted that where this recommendation is implemented there would be additional costs relating to drug treatment to lower systolic blood pressure and there is potential for downstream cost savings if health outcomes are improved.</p></div><div id="ch5.s1.8"><h3>1.8.

The committee&#x02019;s discussion of the evidence</h3><div id="ch5.s1.9.1"><h4>1.9.1. Interpreting the evidence</h4><div id="ch5.s1.9.1.1"><h5>1.9.1.1. The outcomes that matter most</h5><p>The critical outcomes identified for this review were the mRS at 90 days and 1 year, and mortality at 24 hours and 90 days. The committee considered both outcomes to be vital in decision making. Important outcomes included symptomatic cerebral ischaemia, haemorrhagic expansion, neurological deterioration, renal failure, spinal cord infarction, myocardial infarction, and quality of life.</p><p>No evidence was available for the adverse event outcomes of symptomatic cerebral ischaemia and spinal cord infarction.</p></div><div id="ch5.s1.9.1.2"><h5>1.9.1.2. The quality of the evidence</h5><p>Seven studies were included in the review. Two large trials provided the majority of the body of evidence. The trials were all prospective randomized open blinded end-point (PROBE) trials. This meant that patient and care givers were not blinded to the intervention, but the outcome assessors were. Subjective outcomes (mRS and quality of life) were therefore downgraded for risk of bias. Outcomes such as renal failure and myocardial infarction had very few events resulting in estimates of effect with wide confidence intervals and therefore they were downgraded for imprecision.</p><p>Evidence ranged from very low to high quality, with the majority of the evidence rated as moderate quality. The good quality evidence from a large number of participants found that intensive or rapid systolic blood pressure lowering is likely to be safe therefore a strong recommendation was made.</p></div><div id="ch5.s1.9.1.3"><h5>1.9.1.3. Benefits and harms</h5><p>The committee noted that for the recommended strategy there was no evidence of blood pressure lowering causing harm in people after intracerebral haemorrhage with high blood pressure, with no signal of increased neurological deterioration due to reduced blood flow to the brain. Rapid blood pressure lowering did not adversely affect renal function in the majority of trials. The exception was in a trial that used a more aggressive blood pressure reduction protocol, with a target for systolic blood pressure of 110-139 mmHg and treatment started within 4.5 hours of onset, where there was evidence of increased renal failure with 19 more cases per 1000 compared to the control rate of 14 per 1000. The committee agreed that rapid lowering of systolic blood pressure is safe when using less aggressive protocols, and so have included detail on the blood pressure target and time window in the recommendation. While there was no clear difference in the pooled common odds ratio from the mRS ordinal shift analysis, the committee considered the absolute benefit demonstrated for the dichotomous outcome of mRS 0 to 2 to be sufficiently clinically meaningful to recommend systolic blood pressure lowering. These outcomes were supported by the evidence for quality of life at 90 days from the INTERACT2 trial (but not in the pooled data for this outcome) and haematoma growth at 24 hours, which also favoured rapid treatment with no indication of harm.</p><p>In accordance with evidence from the trials where rapid systolic blood pressure lowering was found to be safe it was recommended that treatment should start within 6 hours and continue for 7 days, and that the target should be 130-140 mmHg within 1 hour. Regarding the target range, this was consistent with what was achieved in the INTERACT-2 trial and also avoids the potenetially harmful aggressive reduction to a lower target, as in ATACH-2, that could be associated with renal failure. Also, lowering the systolic blood pressure below 130 mmHg was noted to risk of excessive reduction, requiring intervention to raise the blood pressure back to a safe level in these patients and so should be avoided.</p><p>It was noted that this should be a strong recommendation because:
<ul id="l109"><li id="lt325" class="half_rhythm"><div>There is good evidence that intensive or rapid systolic blood pressure lowering is safe and has some signal for effectiveness, which could have been underestimated by including ATACH2 in the meta-analysis, which has a more aggressive regimen in the control arm that is similar to the intervention arm of the other main trial, INTERACT-2</div></li><li id="lt326" class="half_rhythm"><div>The mortality rate from intracerebral haemorrhage without intervention is reported to be around 40% at 1 month<a class="bibr" href="#ch5.ref54" rid="ch5.ref54"><sup>54</sup></a> so any intervention to reduce this is important</div></li><li id="lt327" class="half_rhythm"><div>Up to 60% of those who survive currently have moderate or severe disability<a class="bibr" href="#ch5.ref54" rid="ch5.ref54"><sup>54</sup></a></div></li><li id="lt328" class="half_rhythm"><div>It will likely standardise care in this condition where much inconsistency is known to exist.</div></li></ul></p><p>Additionally, based on the exclusion criteria for the INTERACT-2 trial, those with an underlying structural cause (for example tumour, artereovenous malformation or aneurysm), a GCS of below 6, a massive haematoma with a poor expected prognosis or who are going to have early neurosurgery to evacuate the haematoma are not included in the recommendation as there is no evidence of benefit or absence of harm in these people because they were not included in the trial. Also, it will often not be appropriate to undertake an active management approach in these people because they are likely to be entering a palliative care pathway.</p><p>While there was limited evidence for people presenting after 6 hours (only one small study recruiting within 8 hours of presentation), the committee agreed that rapid systolic blood pressure lowering could be recommended for people presenting after 6 hours. No evidence of harm was found in the earlier presenting group, and there is no reason to believe that this would be different in the later group. Therefore, the consensus of the group was that the evidence could be extrapolated to people presenting beyond 6 hours.</p><p>Similarly, although the majority of the evidence was from trials that did not include people with a systolic blood pressure over 220 mmHg the committee agreed that current practice is to implement systolic blood pressure reduction as part of initiating secondary prevention as soon as possible. The committee also believed that this should not pose any greater harm than rapid systolic blood pressure reduction in those with a systolic blood pressure below 220 mmHg. The committee noted that the &#x02018;consider&#x02019; recommendation would allow clinical discretion in these groups for instances where rapid lowering may not be appropriate, for example if the initial systolic blood pressure was more than 230 mmHg.</p><p>Overall, it was agreed that although there was little or no evidence for those presenting beyond 6 hours and those with a systolic blood pressure over 220 mmHg, it is logical to extrapolate from the available data to these groups and that guidance on how to manage these patients is required.</p><p>The committee noted that very aggressive systolic blood pressure lowering should be avoided in all groups because of the risk for renal impairment.</p></div></div><div id="ch5.s1.9.2"><h4>1.9.2. Cost effectiveness and resource use</h4><p>No relevant economic evaluations were identified which addressed the cost effectiveness of measures to manipulate systolic blood pressure versus treatment as usual in people with acute intracerebral haemorrhage. The committee expressed that there is variation between centres and consultants in current practice of systolic blood pressure lowering. Intravenous labetalol is commonly used as the first-line treatment for systolic blood pressure lowering in the UK. In the absence of relevant economic evaluations, the committee considered the unit costs of systolic blood pressure lowering agents. Labetalol 100mg/20ml solution for injection ampoules currently have a unit cost of &#x000a3;10.44. For a two-day course of 50 mg/hour intravenous labetalol, the current total cost per person is &#x000a3;250.66.</p><p>Upon considering the cost of treatment with intravenous labetalol, the committee considered that the clinical evidence indicated that treatment of approximately 39 people within 6 hours of acute intracerebral haemorrhage would yield an additional person with an mRS score of 0-2 at 90 days. At a total cost of &#x000a3;250.66 per person, the total cost of treating 39 people with haemorrhagic stroke is &#x000a3;9,776. The committee noted that nursing costs are not included in this calculation and it may be that additional nursing time is required for monitoring, however this is difficult to quantify as people will already be being managed in a high dependency area of an emergency department or hyperacute stroke unit and the additional time required is unclear. In addition, the clinical evidence associated with rapid blood pressure lowering, found an absence of harm and a higher quality of life at 90 days in the intervention group than in the control. The committee noted, however, that very aggressive systolic blood pressure lowering (e.g. from a high baseline to a low target, as in ATACH2) could have deleterious effects on renal function and consequently impact long term costs and quality of life.</p><p>The cost of treating 39 people with haemorrhagic stroke was interpreted in light of the costs, obtained from the literature, of being in mRS 0-2 compared with mRS 3-5. A cost utility analysis from the UK NHS perspective obtained annual costs (adjusted to 2013/2014 UK pounds) of being in the independent and dependent health states from a second study. This study applied UK NHS reference costs to the resource use from a UK, single centre randomised controlled trial to calculate the costs of stroke. It did not differentiate between haemorrhagic and ischaemic strokes and excluded very mild and very severe strokes, as defined by the Barthel Index. The study assumed that mild and moderate strokes correspond to independent stroke survivors and severe stroke described the cost of dependent stroke survivors. These studies indicate that estimated cost savings of &#x000a3;7,813 within three months of stroke onset and &#x000a3;10,182 over the first year after stroke could be made by shifting one person from mRS 3-5 to mRS 0-2. Over a lifetime time horizon, further cost savings are therefore likely to be accrued. The committee therefore considered that the cost of treating 39 people with intravenous labetalol (&#x000a3;9,776) was likely to be recuperated over a year and would be cost saving over a lifetime time horizon.</p><p>The committee also noted that for the population of people with acute intracerebral haemorrhage, the distribution of mRS scores in those surviving is likely to be skewed towards higher scores, as up to 60% of survivors have moderate to severe disability. The cost differences between those with mRS scores of 5 and mRS scores 0-2 are likely to be higher than those mentioned above. In addition, the committee acknowledged the heterogeneity in the trials. The committee thought that by delivering the intervention in line with the trial with more favourable results (INTERACT 2), the treatment effect might be improved and the number needed to treat reduced, producing larger cost savings. On this basis, the committee agreed that rapid systolic blood pressure reduction could be offered to this population. While there is variation in current practice, this protocol is already being widely implemented in most trusts so the committee does not expect a very large impact on practice or a substantial resource impact to the NHS in England.</p><p>No clinical or economic evidence was identified for those presenting at 6-24 hours of symptom onset nor with systolic blood pressure exceeding 220 mmHg. The committee however agreed that rapid systolic blood pressure lowering should also be considered in this population, because haematoma expansion &#x02013; the therapeutic target for rapid blood pressure reduction &#x02013; can still occur up to 24 hours after symptom onset.</p><p>The committee noted that the unit costs of oral systolic blood pressure lowering agents are currently significantly lower than those of intravenous systolic blood pressure lowering agents. The committee stressed that after an intravenous course with an approximate duration of up to two days, people with haemorrhagic stroke should be maintained on oral systolic blood pressure drugs when possible. Oral systolic blood pressure medicines should be introduced as soon as possible to prevent rebound of systolic blood pressure when the intravenous course is discontinued and maintain smooth blood pressure control beyond the hyperacute phase.</p><p>In conclusion, no relevant economic evaluations were identified which addressed the cost effectiveness of measures to manipulate systolic blood pressure versus treatment as usual in people with haemorrhagic stroke. The committee&#x02019;s discussion was informed by evidence that a greater proportion of people have mRS 0-2 at 90 days following rapid systolic blood pressure reduction than with usual care, with concomitant cost savings exceeding the costs of the intervention. The committee was confident in recommending that rapid systolic blood pressure lowering is offered to people presenting within 6 hours of symptom onset for acute intracerebral haemorrhage as it is likely to be cost saving, and confer health benefits to people with haemorrhagic stroke. They also agreed that it was reasonable to extrapolate this evidence to those presenting after 6 hours or with a systolic blood pressure exceeding 220 mmHg and that rapid blood pressure lowering should be considered in these groups.</p></div><div id="ch5.s1.9.3"><h4>1.9.3. Other factors the committee took into account</h4><p>A recommendation to lower systolic blood pressure could encourage greater overall monitoring and drive up overall care quality. The committee were aware of emerging evidence that more intensive monitoring, which would be associated with blood pressure control, encourages a more intensive multimodal approach to patients with intracerebral haemorrhage and leads to overall improved outcomes in this patient cohort.</p><p>The committee also noted the distinction between acute treatment, which is designed to reduce effects of the index event by reducing systolic blood pressure, and secondary prevention. It was agreed that it is unclear at what point management changes from acute treatment to secondary prevention, but that one indicator may be when treatment is changed from IV to oral route of administration. However, this evidence review is primarily concerned with treatment within the first 48 hours.</p></div></div></div><div id="ch5.rl.r1"><h2 id="_ch5_rl_r1_">References</h2><dl class="temp-labeled-list"><dl class="bkr_refwrap"><dt>1.</dt><dd><div class="bk_ref" id="ch5.ref1">Anderson

<p>Studies not meeting any of the search criteria above will be excluded. Studies published before 2002, abstract-only studies and studies from non-OECD countries or the USA will also be excluded.</p>
<p>Studies published after 2002 that were included in the previous guideline will be reassessed for inclusion and may be included or selectively excluded based on their relevance to the questions covered in this update and whether more applicable evidence is also identified.</p>
<p>Each remaining study will be assessed for applicability and methodological limitations using the NICE economic evaluation checklist which can be found in <a href="#ch5.apph">appendix H</a> of Developing NICE guidelines: the manual (2014).<a class="bibr" href="#ch5.ref37" rid="ch5.ref37"><sup>37</sup></a></p>
<p><b>Inclusion and exclusion criteria</b>
<ul id="l115"><li id="lt356" class="half_rhythm"><div>If a study is rated as both &#x02018;Directly applicable&#x02019; and with &#x02018;Minor limitations&#x02019; then it will be included in the guideline.

<b>Where there is discretion</b></p>
<p>The health economist will make a decision based on the relative applicability and quality of the available evidence for that question, in discussion with the guideline committee if required. The ultimate aim is to include health economic studies that are helpful for decision-making in the context of the guideline and the current NHS setting. If several studies are considered of sufficiently high applicability and methodological quality that they could all be included, then the health economist, in discussion with the committee if required, may decide to include only the most applicable studies and to selectively exclude the remaining studies. All studies excluded on the basis of applicability or methodological limitations will be listed with explanation as excluded health economic studies in <a href="#ch5.apph">appendix H</a>.</p>
<p>The health economist will be guided by the following hierarchies.</p>
<p><i>Setting:</i>
<ul id="l116"><li id="lt359" class="half_rhythm"><div>UK NHS (most applicable).</div></li><li id="lt360" class="half_rhythm"><div>OECD countries with predominantly public health insurance systems (for example, France, Germany, Sweden).</div></li><li id="lt361" class="half_rhythm"><div>OECD countries with predominantly private health insurance systems (for example, Switzerland).</div></li><li id="lt362" class="half_rhythm"><div>Studies set in non-OECD countries or in the USA will be excluded before being assessed for applicability and methodological limitations.</div></li></ul>
