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.

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

Anesthesia for Neurosurgical Procedures
2018Pediatric Neuroanesthesia is a field that combines the nuances of anesthesia in children with the distinct considerations to bear in mind in neurosurgical disease and emergencies. The conditions range from congenital malformations requiring immediate surgery in infants to the evolution of these disorders in older children, acute worsening of chronic ...

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.
