Cerebral Complications Following Measurements

چکیده
Cerebral Complications Following Measurements of Regional Cerebral Blood Flow (rCBF) With the Intra-arterial Injection Method • The rate of complications was studied following measurements of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) with the intra-arterial Xenon technique. The investigation was based upon reports of rCBF measurements in close to 4,000 patients, carried out at 18 European and American centers. Two fatalities were reported. The overall rate of complication was found to be 1.3% with permanent neurological sequelae in 0.2%. Almost all complications were reported in patients with arterial or intracranial disease. The complication rates found are equal to, or lower than, corresponding rates following cerebral angiography with carotid puncture. Based upon the experiences reported, some factors are enumerated which appear important in order to keep the rate of complication low. Additional

متن کاملCORRELATION BE TWEEN ENDOTHELIAL INJURY AND CEREBRAL VASOSPASM FOLLOWING A DOUBLE SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE IN THE RAT
While a wide array of pathological changes occur in cerebral arteries following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), the most consistent is endothelial damage. Since the endothelium normally modulates reflexes that influence vascular tone, any damage to it may represent a significant contributor to cerebral vasospasm following SAH. This experimental study investigates the correlation between end...
