Clinical Study on the Treatment of Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage With Panax Notoginseng Saponin
The purpose of this study is to determine whether panax notoginseng saponins are effective in
 the treatment of Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage Patients.
Patients with HICH were randomly assigned to receive either PNS integrated with conventional
 therapy. Patients were treated with conventional therapy for 3 days, then plus PNS for 14
 days. Patients in the control group received conventional therapy for 17days. Hematoma volume
 measured by CT scanning, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, Barthel
 index (BI), all the three were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect for both groups after
 two weeks of intervention.
