This 2023 Clinical Practice Guideline provides the biomedical definition of death based on permanent cessation brain function that applies to all persons, as well recommendations for determination by circulatory criteria potential organ donors and neurologic mechanically ventilated patients regardless donation potential. is endorsed Canadian Critical Care Society, Medical Association, Association Nurses, Anesthesiologists' Neurological Sciences Federation (representing Neurosurgical Society...
To test ketamine infusion efficacy in the treatment of super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE), we studied patients with SRSE who were treated retrospectively. We also effect high doses on brain physiology as reflected by invasive multimodality monitoring (MMM).We a consecutive series 68 admitted between 2009 and 2018, ketamine, monitored scalp EEG. Eleven these underwent MMM at time administration. compared had seizure cessation after initiation to those did not.Mean age was 53 ± 18...
While historically utilized as a topical anesthetic and active ingredient in variety of tonics, beverages cure-alls, cocaine is commonly abused illicit substance. Cocaine use associated with neurological systemic complications. The present study describes the case 23-year-old female patient presenting profound complications cocaine, including coma, leukoencephaloapthy, neurogenic stunned myocardium, transaminitis, acute kidney injury, rhabdomyolysis mononeuropathy. supportive management...
Intracranial pressure (ICP) is an important and established clinical measurement that used in the management of severe acute brain injury. ICP waveforms are usually triphasic susceptible to artifact because transient catheter malfunction or routine patient care. Existing methods for detection include threshold-based, stability-based, template matching, result higher false positives (when there variability waveforms) negatives lack complete components but valid).We hypothesized labeling can...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common and potentially devastating. Traditional examination-based patient monitoring following TBI may be inadequate for frontline clinicians to reduce secondary through individualized therapy. Multimodal neurologic (MMM) offers great potential detecting early improving outcomes. By assessing cerebral oxygenation, autoregulation metabolism, able understand neurophysiology during acute injury, offer therapies better suited each stage of injury. Hence, we this...
Cardiac arrest is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity. Despite advances in technologies resuscitative care, patients who remain comatose after cardiac present the bedside clinician with both diagnostic therapeutic uncertainty because variable comfort how best to neuroprognosticate. Recent guidelines attempt address existing knowledge gaps; however, variability remains clinical practice, including application guideline recommendations at bedside. We case-based discussion illustrate...
