Idiopathic intracranial hypertension

European Journal of Paediatric Neurology, 2006
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension results from cerebral oedema. The symptoms and signs of the condition are reviewed, especially the risks of visual failure if the condition is prolonged without adequate treatment. The most significant symptom in childhood is headache, and the most important sign is papilloedema.

Intracranial Hemorrhage and Intracranial Hypertension

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2019
Central nervous system hemorrhage has multiple pathophysiologic etiologies, including intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Given the nuances intrinsic to each of these etiologies and pathophysiologic processes, optimal blood pressure varies significantly and depends on type of hemorrhage and ...

Intracranial Hypotension and Intracranial Hypertension

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2010
Intracranial pressure (ICP) is the pressure within the intracranial space. Intracranial hypotension is a clinical syndrome in which low cerebrospinal fluid volume (CSF) results in orthostatic headache. Severe cases can result in nausea, vomiting, photophobia, and, rarely, decreased level of consciousness and coma. CSF opening pressure can be within the

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2002
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), also known as pseudotumor cerebri, can be a serious vision-threatening disease. Visual acuity, visual fields, and ocular fundus appearance should be followed closely in all patients with IIH. Obese patients with IIH should be encouraged to lose weight.

Management of Intracranial Hypertension

Critical Care Clinics, 2006
Effective treatment of intracranial hypertension involves meticulous avoidance of factors that precipitate or aggravate increased intracranial pressure. When intracranial pressure becomes elevated, it is important to rule out new mass lesions that should be surgically evacuated.

Pediatric Intracranial Hypertension

Pediatrics In Review, 2017
Headaches are common in the clinical setting. Fortunately, intracranial hypertension (IH) is rare, but when present it can lead to significant morbidity. Early diagnosis and proper management are important to lessen the potential morbidity. Careful headache history, ophthalmologic examination, head imaging, and lumbar puncture (LP) are crucial tools in

Doxycycline and intracranial hypertension

Neurology, 2004
The authors report seven patients from six neuro-ophthalmology referral centers who developed pseudo-tumor cerebri during treatment with doxycycline. All four female patients and one of three male patients were obese. Vision was minimally affected in most patients, but two had substantial visual acuity or visual field loss at presentation ...
