Targeted Perfusion Therapy in Spinal Cord Trauma. [PDF]
We review state-of-the-art monitoring techniques for acute, severe traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) to facilitate targeted perfusion of the injured cord rather than applying universal mean arterial pressure targets.

Measurement of Intraspinal Pressure After Spinal Cord Injury: Technical Note from the Injured Spinal Cord Pressure Evaluation Study. [PDF]
Intracranial pressure (ICP) is routinely measured in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). We describe a novel technique that allowed us to monitor intraspinal pressure (ISP) at the injury site in 14 patients who had severe acute traumatic ...

Early cerebral perfusion pressure augmentation with phenylephrine after traumatic brain injury may be neuroprotective in a pediatric swine model* [PDF]
Objective: Cerebral perfusion pressureage, and current guidelines recommend maintaining cerebral perfusion pressure between 40 mm Hg–60 mm Hg. Although adult traumatic brain injury studies have observed an increased risk of complications associated with ...
