Filter by:General anesthesia and regional anesthesia can be chosen in cesarean operations. Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation are components of general anesthesia. Endotracheal intubation has been shown to cause increased intracranial pressure. There is not enough information about the effect of spinal anesthesia on intracranial pressure during cesarean operations. Increased intracranial pressure can cause neurological complications by disrupting brain perfusion. For this reason, the investigators think that the safe anesthesia method should be determined especially in pregnant patients who are at risk of increased intracranial pressure.
Reverse Trendelenburg position has been shown to slightly reduce the intracranial pressure associated with pneumoperitoneum. However, there are no studies on the effect of the timing of reverse Trendelenburg position on intracranial pressure. This study will monitor the effect of reverse Trendelenburg position before or after pneumoperitoneum on intracranial pressure and regional cerebral oxygen saturation.
This study will test the use of video ophthalmoscope to provide information about intracranial pressure without the use of invasive methods, anesthesia or contact with the eye.
Two distinction fluids are used in operative hysteroscopy. One is monopolar and the second is bipolar. The monopolar fluid contains mannitol and the bipolar fluid contains serum physiologic. This study aims to compare intracranial pressure in patients undergoing monopolar and bipolar hysteroscopy.
This study aims to investigate the inner mechanism during different dehydration therapies such as mannitol injection and hypertonic saline. The investigators used a self-made near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instrument to monitor the physiological changes noninvasively including oxyhemoglobin ([HbO2]), deoxy-hemoglobin ([Hb]), the derived change in blood volume ([tHb]) and water concentration on the forehead of brain edema patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the change of the optic nerve sheath diameter after deflation of pneumatic tourniquet.
The aim of this study is to investigate any direct correlation between increased intrathoracic pressure, intraabdominal pressure and intracranial pressure, following a controlled elevation in intraabdominal pressure and intrathoracic pressure (PEEP). The second end-point is to investigate any correlation between elevated intracranial pressure and vasopressin release, urine output and urine and serum osmolality by measuring their values at different time-points.
Since decades, neurosurgeons and neurooncologists assumed that the mass effect of brain tumors with peritumoral edema or intratumoral hemorrhage might lead to increased ICP. Therefore, decisions on surgical procedures and medical treatments were made based on clinical and radiological findings suggesting increased ICP. But in fact, no measurement has ever confirmed increased ICP in brain tumor patients. From an ethical point of view, it is not justifiable to implant an intraparenchymal ICP probe within an invasive surgical procedure in a brain tumor patient unless the patient is comatose or present with rapid impairment of the level of consciousness. Therefore, with the new medical device for non-invasive ICP measurement presented in this study protocol, we will be able to measure absolute ICP values in patients with brain tumors.
The study is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, open label observational study. The objective of this study is to compare the accuracy of the EyeBOX to a clinical diagnosis of abnormal ICP as determined by an external ventriculostomy drain (EVD) or ventriculostomy catheter.
Severe Trauma Brain Injury (TBIs) is a public health problem and monitoring of Intracranial Pressure (ICP) is a determinant key of it prognosis. Within the noninvasive methods to estimate the ICP, the measurement of intraocular pressure has been proposed because of its biological plausibility (proximity of the eye to the encephalic contend). Objective. Correlate intraocular pressure with ICP in children with TBIs and obtain their utility values.
