Immunodepression following neurosurgical procedures
Critical Care Medicine, 1995To determine the influence of a selective, sterile central nervous system surgery on immune reactivity, particularly whether a decrease of monocytic human leukocyte antigen-DR expression, indicating immunodepression, occurs after neurosurgery and if this measurement is useful for identification of patients with a high risk of infection.Prospective ...

Abstract Many atlases describe the specific techniques that are employed in neurosurgical operations. The intent of this chapter is to present a brief introduction to neurosurgical techniques without being ex¬haustive. Routine neurosurgical procedures will first be described along with several anesthetic considerations that are pertinent

Electrocardiographic alterations after neurosurgical procedures
American Heart Journal, 1961Abstract The electrocardiographic alterations are reported in 37 patients who underwent various neurosurgical procedures. Striking changes were observed, the chief of which consisted of alterations in the T wave, prolongation of the Q-T interval, and increase in the amplitude of the U wave.

Anaesthesia for endoscopic neurosurgical procedures
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2010Endoscopic neurosurgical procedures are becoming more frequent and popular in the treatment of intracranial disease. When endoscopy involves the intraventricular structures, irrigating solutions are required and may contribute to sudden and sharp increases in intracranial pressure. More recently, nasal endoscopic approach has been used to perform skull

Measuring Outcomes for Neurosurgical Procedures
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2015Health care evolution has led to focused attention on clinical outcomes of care. Surgical disciplines are increasingly asked to provide evidence of treatment efficacy. As the technological advances push the surgical envelope further, it becomes imperative that postoperative outcomes are studied in a prospective fashion to assess the quality of care ...

ANESTHESIA FOR NEUROSURGICAL PROCEDURES
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1954Anoxia, swelling of the brain, and excessive bleeding create the greatest dangers to successful neurosurgical procedures. Anoxia starts a vicious cycle by causing increased permeability of the capillaries, which results in loss of fluid into the tissues, and this, in turn, leads to greater degrees of tissue anoxia.

‘Diprifusor’ for neurosurgical procedures
Anaesthesia, 1998The pharmacokinetic profile of propofol is an advantage in neurosurgery, where the rapid return of cognitive function is essential for an early postoperative assessment of neurological status. Administration of propofol by ‘Diprifusor’ target controlled infusion allows induction of anaesthesia in neurosurgical patients without significant reduction of ...

Basic Neurosurgical Procedures
2014Basic neurosurgical procedures used to treat neurological conditions and emergencies include creating a burr hole, doing a craniotomy for access to the brain, laminectomy for access to the spinal cord, and placing a cerebral shunt. A burr hole is a small opening in the skull that is drilled to reach the dura mater.

Retinal hemorrhage after pediatric neurosurgical procedures
Journal of American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, 2021Neurosurgical procedures may occur prior to eye examination in children with suspected abusive head trauma and raise questions by child abuse physicians and ophthalmologists regarding the contribution of neurosurgery to retinal hemorrhage found postoperatively. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and patterns of retinal hemorrhage

Common Neurosurgical Procedures
2019Medical management of the neurosurgical patient can be complicated. These patients may suffer from a difficult neurosurgical pathology while still living with challenging comorbidities. As a result, this population often requires cooperation between multiple teams including neurosurgeons, neurologists, neurointensivists, and hospitalists.
