Decompressive Craniectomy for Traumatic Brain Injury: Postoperative Cerebral Hemodynamic Evaluation
Conclusion: There is a wide heterogeneity of postoperative cerebral hemodynamic findings among TBI patients who underwent DC, including hemodynamic heterogeneity between their cerebral hemispheres. DC was proved to be effective for the treatment of cerebral oligoemia. Our data support the concept of heterogeneous nature of the pathophysiology of the TBI and suggest that DC as the sole treatment modality is insufficient. Introduction Decompressive craniectomy (DC) may effectively decrease intracranial pressure (ICP) and increase cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients with refracto...

The Temporospatial Role of Microcirculatory Dysfunction in the Prediction of Ischemia or Infarction in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhages (P2.281)
Conclusions:This ongoing study suggests that patients with low mean minimal pulsatility index had poor functional outcomes relative to patients that had higher mean pulsatility index.Study Supported by: This work was supported in part by a grant from the McKnight Brain Research Foundation, Brain and Spinal Cord Injury Research Trust Fund, a grant from NIH National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, a Medical Student Anesthesia Research Fellowship awarded by the Foundation for Anesthesiology Education and Research, a grant from the Medical Student Research Program at the University of Florida, and the Departmen...
