Multimodal monitoring in severe brain damage different etiology regarding to optimal patients therapy and outcome
Habalová, Jiřina ; Náhlovský, Jiří (advisor) ; Galanda, Miroslav (referee) ; Smrčka, Martin (referee)
Multimodal monitoring in severe brain damage of different etiology regarding optimal pacients therapy and outcome. Objectives: The common aim during treatment of patients with brain damage is to maintain adequate cerebral oxygenation. It is necessary to monitor vulnerable areas of the brain in terms of oxygen content. This paper summarizes the theoretical and practical aspects of noninvasive continuous monitoring of regional cerebral oxygenation (rSO2) with near - infrared light of specific wavelength (infrared spectroscopy) by means of the device INVOS (In Vivo Optical Spectroscopy) in neurosurgical patients. Methods: The authors present the results of monitoring rSO2 in four groups of patients with brain damage of different etiology (n=10). Patients after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (Group 1, n1=10) were followed by rSO2 before and after treatment of reactive hypertension. In patients with vazospazm after subarachnoid hemorrhage of ruptured aneurysm (Group 2, n2=16) were measured and investigated the value of rSO2, which was resulted in remission of symptoms. In patients prior to cerebral vascular anastomosis (Group 3, n3=18) was followed rSO2 during stress test and the results were compared with SPECT examination. In patients with traumatic brain injury (Group 4, n4=30) were measured...
