  1. 1. Neurointensive Care of Children with Severe Traumatic Brain Injury : Studies of barbiturate coma treatment, intracranial compliance, pressure autoregulation and optimal cerebral perfusion pressure

    Författare :Fartein Velle; Per Enblad; Shruti Agrawal; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Traumatic brain injury; Children; Refractory intracranial hypertension; Barbiturate coma; Intracranial compensatory reserve; autoregulation; cerebral microdialysis.; Neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is among the most common causes of death and acquired disability during childhood. Management guidelines for pediatric patients are usually extrapolated from adults. Specific pediatric studies are warranted to improve the TBI management in children. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Cerebral Hemodynamics through Intracrnial Pressure

    Författare :Sima Shahsavari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Intracranial dynamics; Baroreceptor reflex; Secondary brain injury; Traumatic brain injury; Collapsible tubes; Intracranial pressure; Cushing reflex; Pulse wave propagation; Cerebral autoregulation; Cerebral compliance; Mathematical modelling;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) continues to be a major problem worldwide. Today, intensive care of patients with TBI is mainly focused on preventing and treating secondary brain injuries. High pressure inside the intracranial cavity has been found to be an important feature of disturbed cerebral dynamics and secondary injuries. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Intracranial Pressure in Traumatic Brain Injury

    Författare :Sima Shahsavari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Brain Swelling; Cerebral Autoregulation; Secondary Brain Injury; Traumatic Brain Injury; Cerebral Compliance; Intracranial Dynamics; Intracranial Pressure;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) continues to be a major problem worldwide. Today, intensive care of patients with TBI is mainely focused on preventing and treating secondary brain injuries. High pressure inside the intracranial cavity (ICP) has been found to be an important feature of disturbed cerebral dynamics and secondary injuries. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Pressure autoregulation of cerebral blood flow in traumatic brain injury and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

    Författare :Ulf Johnson; Per Enblad; Lars-Owe Koskinen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cerebral blood flow; autoregulation; traumatic brain injury; subarachnoid hemorrhage; Neurosurgery; Neurokirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : The ability of the brain to keep a stable and adequate cerebral blood flow (CBF) independently of fluctuations in systemic blood pressure is referred to as cerebral pressure autoregulation (CPA). When the brain is injured by trauma or hemorrhage, this ability may be impaired, leaving the brain vulnerable to events of high or low blood pressure. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Quality systems to avoid secondary brain injury in neurointensive care

    Författare :Lena Nyholm; Per Enblad; Camilla Fröjd; Anders Lewén; Bo-Michael Bellander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Traumatic brain injury; Subarachnoid hemorrhage; Intracranial pressure; Quality register; Checklist; Nursing interventions; Pressure autoregulation; Intracranial compliance; Hyperthermia; Cerebral energy metabolism; Microdialysis and Brain tissue oxygenation.; Neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery;

    Sammanfattning : Outcome after traumatic brain injury (TBI) depends on the extent of primary cell death and on the development of secondary brain injury. The general aim of this thesis was to find strategies and quality systems to minimize the extent of secondary insults in neurointensive care (NIC). LÄS MER
