This book was released on 2015-11-20 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The organization of a modern Neurocritical Care Unit with complex monitoring and computerized data collection provides a unique environment of neural bioinformatics and an opportunity to study pathophysiological mechanisms of acute brain lesion and the effect of treatment, as in a clinical laboratory. Multimodal Brain Monitoring with advanced techniques assessing cerebrovascular reactivity, brain oxygenation and chemistry and cerebral blood flow allow a real-time definition of physiologic end points that may be used to customize goal-directed therapy and contribute to improving outcome from severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). This complexity requires a multidisciplinary approach, therefore the book has three dimensions: population, methodological and clinical. The methodological section includes a systematic review of brain monitoring, neurocritical care bioinformatics and cerebrovascular reactivity evaluation at the bedside. The clinical section included a prospective study where the relevance of multimodal brain monitoring, targeting "optimal CPP" and early recognition of brain and systemic phenomenon responsible for secondary injury was investigated.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decade a multitude of studies concerning the dynamic changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2), and intracranial pressure (ICP) in the acute phase after head injury have been published. These studies have been supplemented with studies of cerebral autoregulation, CO2 reactivity and barbiturate reactivity. Other investigations include studies of cerebrospinal fluid pH, bicarbonate, lactate and pyruvate. In this book experimental and clinical studies of the dynamic changes in CBF, CMRO2, CO2 reactivity and barbiturate reactivity are reviewed. The author's own clinical studies of the dynamic changes in CBF and cerebral metabolism are summarized and discussed, and the therapeutical implication as regards the use of artificial hyperventilation, sedation with barbiturate and mannitol treatment are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive summary of sport-related concussion for parents, coaches, and athletes that considers the physics behind the injury, identifies what can be done to reduce the risk of its occurrence, and describes how to respond to a suspected concussion. Concussion injury among athletes continues to be a subject of great concern. Increasing attention and research is focusing on the most vulnerable of athletes—children. What strategies can be taken to best protect young athletes in sports from grammar school football leagues to high school hockey and soccer teams from concussion? How do we treat youngsters who suffer head injuries in sports? What are the ethical considerations in allowing children to play such sports, given the risks to still-developing brains? In this updated and expanded guide, William Meehan, MD, explains simply and clearly how coaches, parents, and others who work with young athletes can recognize concussion; best help children and youths recover from concussion injuries; and take steps to become proactive to prevent concussion. Readers will learn what causes a sport-related concussion; what happens to brain cells during a concussion; and why concussion, which in the past was dismissed as a trivial injury, is taken so much more seriously now. The book explains how to decrease the risk of concussion; addresses the potential for cumulative effects from multiple concussions, including chronic traumatic encephalopathy; and discusses the ethical dimensions of deciding whether an athlete with multiple concussions should continue to participate in high-risk sports.

This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, few subjects at the intersection of medicine and sports have generated as much public interest as sports-related concussions - especially among youth. Despite growing awareness of sports-related concussions and campaigns to educate athletes, coaches, physicians, and parents of young athletes about concussion recognition and management, confusion and controversy persist in many areas. Currently, diagnosis is based primarily on the symptoms reported by the individual rather than on objective diagnostic markers, and there is little empirical evidence for the optimal degree and duration of physical rest needed to promote recovery or the best timing and approach for returning to full physical activity. Sports-Related Concussions in Youth: Improving the Science, Changing the Culture reviews the science of sports-related concussions in youth from elementary school through young adulthood, as well as in military personnel and their dependents. This report recommends actions that can be taken by a range of audiences - including research funding agencies, legislatures, state and school superintendents and athletic directors, military organizations, and equipment manufacturers, as well as youth who participate in sports and their parents - to improve what is known about concussions and to reduce their occurrence. Sports-Related Concussions in Youth finds that while some studies provide useful information, much remains unknown about the extent of concussions in youth; how to diagnose, manage, and prevent concussions; and the short- and long-term consequences of concussions as well as repetitive head impacts that do not result in concussion symptoms. The culture of sports negatively influences athletes' self-reporting of concussion symptoms and their adherence to return-to-play guidance. Athletes, their teammates, and, in some cases, coaches and parents may not fully appreciate the health threats posed by concussions. Similarly, military recruits are immersed in a culture that includes devotion to duty and service before self, and the critical nature of concussions may often go unheeded. According to Sports-Related Concussions in Youth, if the youth sports community can adopt the belief that concussions are serious injuries and emphasize care for players with concussions until they are fully recovered, then the culture in which these athletes perform and compete will become much safer. Improving understanding of the extent, causes, effects, and prevention of sports-related concussions is vitally important for the health and well-being of youth athletes. The findings and recommendations in this report set a direction for research to reach this goal.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) renders the brain vulnerable to secondary ischemia and poor outcome after TBI. The goal of this project was to understand the causes of neurological injury due to TBI and hypotension and to use this information to develop treatment strategies to reduce the morbidity of these combined insults. We reported that posttraumatic hypoperfusion can be prevented using L-arginine but that nitric oxide (NO) synthase activity is not affected by TBI, suggesting that TBI is affecting NO directly. We have observed evidence of peroxynitrite (ONOO-) production after TBI and have observed that ONOO- and TBI impair of compensatory cerebral vasodilatory responses. We have performed survival studies after TBI and hemorrhage demonstrating neuronal ischemic injury in 100% of rats subjected to combined injury. Exciting new data suggests that perivascular nerve fibers may modulate myogenic responses through the vasodilatory cannabanoid (CB) receptors. We observed that the destruction of perivascular sensory nerves or CB receptor antagonism reduces myogenic responses to decreased pressure in isolated middle cerebral arteries suggesting that perivascular nerves mediate autoregulation by releasing an agent which dilates the cerebral circulation through CB1 receptors. We observed that hypertonic arginine improves CBF during resuscitation from hypotension after TBI without increasing ICP. These exciting observations cotribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms of traumatic vascular injury and suggest new treatment stategies that will improve functional recovery from TBI and hypotension.
