Filter by:Direct laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation are associated with increases in intraocular pressure (IOP), intracranial pressure (ICP), heart rate (HR), and blood pressure. The use of supraglottic airway devices (SADs) are known to be beneficial in overcoming the disadvantages of laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation, especially ocular and pressure stress responses. In recent years, it has been reported that ultrasonographic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) can be used in the diagnosis of increased ICP. The aim of our study is to compare the effects of Proseal laryngeal mask airway (pLMA), Suprem laryngeal mask airway (sLMA) and I-gel on hemodynamic response and ONSD during insertion in adult patients.
Endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask are generally applied to secure the airway during general anesthesia. There is a widespread opinion among anesthesiologists that endotracheal intubation increases intracranial pressure. Since there were no non-invasive methods measuring intracranial pressure in the past, adequate studies on this subject could not be done. With this measurement, we aimed to show whether ETT or LMA applications have effects on intracranial pressure.
The study aims to show the effects of interscalene brachial plexus (ISBP) block on intracranial pressure by measuring optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) and internal vein collapsibility index (IJV-CI).

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) has significant associated morbidity and reduced quality of life. There is a significant risk of visual loss and patients also typically suffer with chronic disabling headaches. This trial has been designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new formulation of exenatide (Presendin) in the reduction of intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with IIH.
Invasive neuromonitoring of intracranial pressure (ICP) is an important element of neurosurgical critical care that is used primarily as an indicator of adequate cerebral perfusion in patients, when clinical observation is not an option. Due to the constraint in size and the critical structures within the posterior fossa, detection of intracranial pressure particularly in the postoperative phase has been deemed desirable in patients with surgery in this region, particularly in those subjected to prolonged procedures and critical care. The posterior fossa is an anatomically constricted compartment with narrow spaces and intracranial hypertension quickly leads to brainstem damage and neurological dysfunction. ICP in the supratentorial space not necessarily correlates with ICP in the infratentorial space. Some authors claim that it would be beneficial to measure ICP in infratentorial space after posterior fossa surgery in some cases. The relationship between the intracranial pressure profiles in the supratentorial and infratentorial compartments remain unclear. After a neurosurgical operation in the posterior fossa there are most likely pressure differences between supra- and infratentorial spaces. It is well known that the pressure within the skull is unevenly distributed, with appreciable ICP gradients. Thus, the investigators intend to apply the intracranial multimodal monitoring in both infratentorial and supratentorial compartments simultaneously. Such coincident measurements most likely will be the most sensitive way to assess focal swelling, ischemia and tissue perfusion, or other relevant complications in the posterior fossa structures. The goal of this study is to test whether direct infratentorial monitoring is a more efficacious method for detecting dynamic changes in the operative compartment and whether it is safe, in view of the critical structures within the region.
An increase of intracranial pressure (ICP) is an important cause of secondary brain damage. The gold standard for measuring ICP is represented by invasive positioning of intracranial ICP devices. The most used non-invasive methods (nICP) are obtained through bed-side ultrasound, routinely used in the management of children in Pediatric Intensive Care: arterial Trancranial Doppler (TCD) and ultrasound measurement of the diameter of the optic nerve sheath (ONSD ). In this study it is proposed to compare the measurement of nICP obtained by TCD and ONSD versus the measurement obtained by the invasive monitoring (iICP) already present.
The aim of the work is to asses the positive effect of stenotic sinus segment stenting on idiopathic intracranial hypertension with headache and papilloedema.
Prospective study, 40 patients ASA 2-3, 30-75 years old who were planned for laparoscopic hysterectomy operation will be included.One day before the operation and postoperative 1.3.7. A mini mental assessment test will be performed on these days.Standard monitoring and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy monitoring to measure cerebral oxygen saturation will be performed on the patients.NIRS sensors will be placed on the right and left sides of the forehead, 2 cm above the eyebrow, before induction of anesthesia. Before the induction of anesthesia, the measurement will begin and the FiO2 (fraction of inspiration oxygen) will be kept at 60%.General anesthesia induction will be made with propofol 2mg/kg, remifentanil 0.5 µg/kg and rocuronium 0.6mg/kg, and maintenance will be provided with 2% sevoflurane.The patient will be intubated and ventilation support will be provided so that the tidal volume is 6-8 ml/kg and the end tidal CO2 is 30-40 mmHg. PEEP (Positive end expiratory pressure) will not be applied to any patient. Intra-abdominal pressure will be maintained at 15 mmHg. All patients will be given 1gr paracetamol and 100mg tramadol for postoperative analgesia.During the measurement of optic nerve diameter, a layer of sterile water-soluble gel will be applied on the closed eyelid with a linear 10-5 MHz ultrasound probe. In our study, ONSDs of all patients will be measured by the same experienced anesthetist. Measurements will be made at 5 different times. 5 minutes after induction of anesthesia in the supine position (T0), 5 minutes after the onset of pneumoperitoneum (T1), 5 minutes after the upright trendelenburg position (T2), at the 2nd hour of the trendelenburg position (T3) and 5 minutes after returning to the supine position at the end of the surgery (T4) .ONSD measurements of the patients measured at 5 different times, peroperative NIRS values, peroperative SpO2, mean blood pressure, peak heart rate, anesthesia time, surgery time, time to stay in the trendelenburg position, partial oxygen saturation (PaO2), PCO2, end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) and peak airway pressure (pPEAK) will be recorded.
Caudal epidural block has been a widely used regional anesthesia method, especially in pediatric surgery, to provide intraoperative and postoperative analgesia. Studies on non-invasive methods used for intracranial pressure measurement have shown that optic nerve sheath diameter is related to intracranial pressure. Optic nerve sheath diameter measurement has high diagnostic accuracy for detecting increased intracranial pressure in children. The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of the caudal block on optic nerve sheath diameter in pediatric patients.
