After aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, the use of lumbar drains has been suggested to decrease incidence delayed cerebral ischemia and improve long-term outcome.To determine effectiveness early cerebrospinal fluid drainage added standard care in patients after hemorrhage.The EARLYDRAIN trial was a pragmatic, multicenter, parallel-group, open-label randomized clinical with blinded end point evaluation conducted at 19 centers Germany, Switzerland, Canada. The first patient entered January...
Thromboembolic complications constitute a significant source of morbidity after neurointerventional procedures. Flow diversion using the pipeline embolization device for treatment intracranial aneurysms necessitates use dual antiplatelet therapy to reduce this risk. The platelet function testing before placement remains controversial.A retrospective review prospectively maintained databases at 3 academic institutions was performed from years 2009 2016 identify patients with treated...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Flow diversion with the Pipeline Embolization Device (PED) for treatment of intracranial aneurysms is associated a high rate aneurysm occlusion. However, clinical and radiographic predictors incomplete occlusion are poorly defined. In this study, at last angiographic follow-up after PED were assessed. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> A retrospective analysis consecutive treated between 2009 2016, 3 academic institutions in United States, was performed. Cases...
The objective of this study was to examine the performance patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) on Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). MoCA administered 214 TBI during their acute care hospitalization in a Level 1 trauma center. results showed that severe had lower scores compared mild and moderate TBI, F(2, 211) = 10.35, p .0001. This difference found for visuospatial/executive, attention, orientation subtests (p < .05). Linear regression demonstrated age, education, severity,...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Flow diversion with the Pipeline Embolization Device has emerged as an attractive treatment for cerebral aneurysms. Processes involved in aneurysm occlusion include changes intra-aneurysmal hemodynamics and endothelialization of device. Here, we call attention to a radiographic sign not previously reported that is detected incompletely occluded aneurysms after at angiographic follow-up referred "collar sign." <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> A retrospective review...
Primary objective: To compare results on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) to those Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and predict outcome at discharge from acute care setting.
Intraprocedural thrombosis poses a formidable challenge during neuroendovascular procedures because the risks of aggressive thromboembolic treatment must be balanced against risk postprocedural hemorrhage. The aim this study was to identify predictors ischemic stroke after intraprocedural stent-assisted coiling and pipeline embolization device placement.A retrospective analysis intracranial aneurysms treated with or placement between 2007 2016 at 4 major academic institutions performed that...
Objectives: The Montreal Cognitive Assessement (MoCA) is a brief and standardized cognitive screening tool that has been used with several clinical populations. aim of this study was to screen the early status patients following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) MoCA.Methods: MoCA administered within first 2 weeks post-injury 42 uncomplicated mTBI, 92 complicated mTBI 50 healthy controls.Results: Patients had significantly lower performance (more impairments) on total score than both group...
AbstractObjective: To study the acute relationship between olfactory function and traumatic brain injury (TBI), cognitive functions outcome.Methods: Sixty-two patients with TBI were evaluated within first 2 weeks following TBI. The Sniffin'Sticks identification test was used to assess olfaction. A neuropsychological evaluation carried out attention, verbal fluency, naming, memory, problem-solving mental flexibility. extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) Disability Rating (DRS) rated at...
Abstract BACKGROUND The development of stent-assisted coiling has allowed for the endovascular treatment wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms. A variety options exist, and little is known about optimal stent configuration in this setting. We report a large multicenter experience bifurcations aneurysms using single stent, with attention to factors predisposing aneurysm recanalization. OBJECTIVE To assess safety efficacy coiling, addition analyzing associated recanalization, proposal predictive...
There is currently no standardized follow-up imaging strategy for intracranial aneurysms treated with the Pipeline embolization device (PED). Here, authors use data PED to propose a standardizable strategy.
Currently, there is no established standard regarding the ideal number of external ventricular drain (EVD) clamp trials performed before ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt insertion following nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In this study, authors aimed to evaluate relationship.
OBJECTIVE With the increasing use of flow diversion as treatment for intracranial aneurysms, there is a concomitant increased vigilance in monitoring complications. The low porosity diverters concerning when origins vessels are covered, whether large circle Willis branches or critical perforators. In this study, authors report their experience with diverter coverage lenticulostriate and evaluate safety outcomes. METHODS retrospectively reviewed 5 institutional databases all cases from August...
OBJECTIVE Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) has a variety of clinical presentations, including hemiparesis. Hemiparesis is the utmost importance because it one major indications for surgical intervention and influences outcome. In current study, authors intended to identify factors influencing presence hemiparesis in CSDH patients determine threshold value thickness midline shift development METHODS The retrospectively reviewed 325 (266 with unilateral 59 bilateral hematomas) who underwent...
Patients with bilateral chronic subdural hematoma (bCSDH) undergo unilateral evacuation for the large or symptomatic side because contralateral is either small asymptomatic. However, may subsequently grow and require evacuation.To characterize factors that predict growth need evacuation.A retrospective study on 128 surgically treated bCSDHs.Fifty-one 77 were bilaterally unilaterally evacuated, respectively. Glasgow Coma Scale was lower midline shift higher in those evacuated compared to...
