Aetna considers remote ischemic conditioning experimental and investigational for the treatment of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, myocardial infarction, primary graft dysfunction following lung transplantation, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and other indications (e.g., for cardiac, cognitive, pulmonary and renal protection during cardiac surgery, endovascular aneurysm repair,...

Neuroendocrine dysfunction is a common complication of several neurosurgical conditions. In particular, central diabetes insipidus (CDI) can occur subsequent to traumatic brain injury, subarachnoid hemorrhage, cerebral tumors or as result following pituitary neurosurgery. contrast, surgical resection non-sellar does not commonly in CDI, with only few cases reported the literature. We report cas...

Terson’s Syndrome (TS) was originally described as intraocular hemorrhage associated with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)1. It is a consequence of sudden rise in intracranial pressure (IP) that reduces venous return to the cavernous sinus or obstruct the retinochoroidal anastomoses and central retinal vein, culminating in venous stasis and ocular hemorrhage (Figure). TS has also been r...

Intracranial pressure (ICP) is a dynamic and fluctuating within the cranial vault influenced by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), brain tissue, blood. Any increase in volume of its contents will vault. As response to ICP, compensation begins movement CSF from ventricle cerebral subarachnoid space increases absorption. Increased ICP state neurological emergency caused various injuries. It associated wi...

Background: Simultaneous electrocardiographic (ECG) changes are seen in hemorrhagic brain events even in the absence of associated myocardial infarction (MI). This study was designed to assess the role of ECG changes to predict true MI in patients with hemorrhagic brain trauma. Methods: Data of 153 patients with traumatic brain injury and concomitant ECG changes were recorded. Enzyme study w...

The systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) consists of an phenomenon as a the immune system against infections, well non-infectious injuries, which includes manifestations that affect multiple organs, among hyperthermia or hypothermia, leukopenia leukocytosis, tachycardia, and tachypnea. SIRS accompanies different acute brain spinal cord including subarachnoid hemorrhage, intracerebral ...

Besides its severe neurological injuries, spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) commonly causes cardiac complications. These complications could include three different aspects of cardiac diseases, that is, electrocardiographic abnormalities, myocardial injuries, and left ventricular dysfunction. These complications not only may lead to misdiagnosis of SAH as myocardial infarction, but also...
