2. 1. Cardiac arrest and therapeutic hypothermia: Prognosis and outcome

   Author : Malin Rundgren; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hypothermia; NSE; S-100B; EEG; cardiac arrest; prognosis;

   Abstract : Abstract Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is the only treatment available to reduce neurological sequels for unconscious patients following cardiac arrest (CA). TH requires sedation and muscular relaxation, obscuring the clinical neurological examination for estimation of prognosis, and clinical decision making. READ MORE

4. 2. Detection and outcome of mild traumatic brain injury in patients and sportsmen : persisting symptoms, disabilities and life satisfaction in relation to S-100B, NSE and cortisol

   Abstract : Traumatic brain injuries are common (hospitalization incidence: 250-300 per 100.000 inhabitants/year) and a great majority of these injuries (80-85%) are classified as mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI/concussion). Many patients with MTBI (20-80%) suffer from subsequent persistent and often disabling symptoms. READ MORE

5. 3. Cerebral perfusion in cardiac surgery : with special reference to circulatory arrest during profound hypothermia

   Author : Rafael Astudillo Ley; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Cardiac surgery; hypothermia; circulatory arrest; cardiopulmonary bypass; cerebral blood flow; cerebral metabolism; cerebral oxygen consuption; cerebral lactate; retograde crebral perfusion; transcranial Doppler; S-100B;

   Abstract : Thirty-nine pediatric and 82 adult patients were studied during cardiac surgery with cardio pulmonary bypass (CPB) performed with moderate hypothermia or with deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest (DHCA) with or-without retrograde cerebral perfusion (RCP). Cerebral blood flow (CBF) was estimated from Doppler measurements of the blood velocity in the middle cerebral artery (MCAv). READ MORE

6. 4. Hormones, biomarkers, genetics and prognostication of patients suffering severe traumatic brain injury

   Author : Zandra Olivecrona; Lars-Owe Koskinen; Elisabeth Ronne-Engström; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery;

   Abstract : Severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) is a significant cause of mortality and mobidity worldwide. In Umeå University Hospital, at the department of Neurosurgery, patients with sTBI are treated by the Lund concept, which can be characterized as an intracranial pressure (ICP) targeted therapy.

7. 5. Cardiac surgery and the brain - studies on cerebral blood flow autoregulation and mechanisms of cerebral injury

   Author : Björn Reinsfelt; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : Cardiac surgery; cerrebral dysfunction; cardiopulmonary bypass; anaesthetics; aortic valve replacement; transcranial Doppler; cerebraospinal fluid; blood-brain barrier;

   Abstract : Cardiac surgery and the brain - studies on cerebral blood flow autoregulation and mechanisms of cerebral injury Björn Reinsfelt Department of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care, Institute of Clinical Sciences, The Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Sweden Abstract Cerebral dysfunction (CD) occurs frequently after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The main causes of CD are thought to be cerebral hypoperfusion, cerebral microembolisation , cerebral inflammation or disruption of the blood brain barrier (BBB). READ MORE
