Filter by:Critically ill patients are generally exposed to an increased oxidative stress, which is proportional to the severity of their condition. Endogenous antioxidant (AOX) defenses are depleted particularly in those patients with intense inflammatory response. The hypothesis tested is that early I:V: administration of a combination of AOX micronutrient supplements (Se, Zn, Vit C, Vit E, Vit B1) would improve clinical outcome in selected critically ill patients, by reinforcing the endogenous AOX defenses and reducing organ failure.
This study performs assessments of pituitary functions by basal hormone levels in the acute phase after TBI and/or SAH followed by detailed endocrine tests (insulin-induced hypoglycemia or growth hormone releasing hormone-arginine-corticotropin releasing hormone-leuteinizing hormone releasing hormone [GHRH-arginine-CRH-LHRH] test) after 4 and 12 months.
Strict glycemic control improves mortality and morbidity of patients admitted to the postoperative intensive care unit (ICU). The investigators would like to know if this therapy could improve the long term neurologic and cognitive outcomes of patients treated for acute subarachnoid hemorrhage with either a surgical or intravascular approach.
The purpose of our study is to verify wherever normothermia (achieved with diclofenac administration) may improve intracranial pressure control and may limit secondary cerebral damage thus positively influencing outcome in patients with acute cerebral damage admitted to ICU.
The purpose of this research is to explore ways to improve and simplify control of blood pressure in patients with SAH or ICH. This research will be done by comparing tow different medications that are routinely used to help control blood pressure. None of the medications used in this study nor any procedures performed are experimental.
The purpose of this study is to test whether treatment with a drug called Simvastatin prevents and improves outcome in patients who have Subarachnoid bleeding. Simvastatin is currently approved for the treatment of high cholesterol levels.
Does the use of ultrasound facilitate a lumbar puncture by reducing the number of difficult and traumatic lumbar punctures?
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety of 25 percent human albumin therapy in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
The outcome of brain injury (physical or stroke) may be related to a brain electrical phenomenon known as Cortical Spreading Depression (CSD). This is a brief cessation of function in a local region of brain tissue. It has been hypothesized that CSD may occur after brain injury and may expand the damage to adjacent brain areas. Our aim is to detect CSD by means of intracranial electrodes in patients with brain injuries and asses how these events alter the outcome of the patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment guided also by ICP mean wave amplitude improves outcome compared to international standard care in patients with SAH.
