Update in intracranial pressure evaluation methods and translaminar pressure gradient role in glaucoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. Historically, it has been considered an ocular disease primary caused by pathological intraocular pressure (IOP).

Genetic, laboratory and clinical risk factors in the development of overt ischemic stroke in children with sickle cell disease

open access: yesHematology, Transfusion and Cell Therapy, 2018
Cerebrovascular disease, particularly stroke, is one of the most severe clinical complications associated with sickle cell disease and is a significant cause of morbidity in both children and adults.

Role of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in stroke [PDF]

open access: yesPostgraduate Medical Journal, 2007
AbstractTranscranial Doppler sonongraphy is a non-invasive, non-ionising, inexpensive, portable and safe technique that uses a pulsed Doppler transducer for assessment of intracerebral blood flow. This article deals with the principles and technique of transcranial Doppler sonography.

Abnormal transcranial Döppler ultrasonography in children with sickle cell disease

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2012
BACKGROUND: Stroke is a potentially fatal complication of sickle cell disease in children between 2-16 years and transcranial Döppler has been recommended as a screening method in these cases.

Resultados do estudo do Doppler transcraniano em crianças e adolescentes portadores de doença falciforme e correlação entre a velocidade média máxima e características hematológicas: um estudo transversal analítico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) detects stroke risk among children with sickle cell anemia (SCA). Our aim was to evaluate TCD findings in patients with different sickle cell disease (SCD) genotypes and correlate the time-averaged ...

Results of an international survey on the investigation and endovascular management of cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Endovascular management of this condition offers a new hope in preventing adverse outcome; however, a uniform standard of ...

A noninvasive estimation of cerebral perfusion pressure using critical closing pressure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
OBJECT: Cerebral blood flow is associated with cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), which is clinically monitored through arterial blood pressure (ABP) and invasive measurements of intracranial pressure (ICP). Based on critical closing pressure (CrCP), the

Transcranial doppler ultrasonography should it be the first choice for persistent foramen ovale screening? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Persistent foramen ovale (PFO) is considered a cause of cryptogenic stroke and a risk factor for neurological events in young patients. The reference standard for identifying a PFO is contrast-enhanced transesophageal echocardiography (TEE ...

Pre‐operative transcranial Doppler ultrasound assessment of cerebral collateral circulation in children undergoing veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or cardiac surgery

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
A pre‐cannulation survey of the circle of Willis (CoW) using transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound was implemented to assess cerebral collateral circulation in children undergoing VA ECMO or cardiac surgery with cervical cannulation. The technique, in use since 2019, employs high‐end ultrasound platforms to assess brain morphology, haemorrhage and ...
