Reduction in CSF volume from baseline to follow-up CT at or beyond 24 -hs can serve as a quantitative biomarker of cerebral edema after stroke. We have demonstrated that assessment of CSF displacement reflects edema metrics such as lesion volume, midline shift, and neurologic deterioration. We have
BACKGROUND
Current guidelines state that osmotic therapy is reasonable in patients with clinical deterioration from cerebral infarction-related cerebral edema. However, there are limited data on the safety and efficacy of this therapy. We aimed to evaluate the effect of mannitol on the outcome of
Decompressive hemicraniectomy has been discussed as a treatment option that increases survival in adults with malignant stroke. This approach has not been studied extensively in children. From a prospective cohort, we identified 4 children who underwent decompressive hemicraniectomy for malignant
We present a case of acute asymmetric angioneurotic edema associated with the use of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) for acute ischemic stroke. rtPA was administered for an acute ischemic stroke in accordance with the recently reported National Institute of Neurological Disorders and
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effi cacy of Kinesio Tape (Kinesio USA, Albequerque, NM) for reducing hand edema in individuals with hemiplegia post stroke.
METHODS
Seventeen individuals who experienced acute stroke were screened for visual signs of edema and were randomly
OBJECTIVE
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is used for treatment of immunodeficiencies and autoimmune disorders. Recently, IVIG has also been shown to reduce infarct size in acute stroke. Since edema treatment can provide secondary neuroprotective effects, we conducted the present study to evaluate
BACKGROUND
Brain edema formation is a major cause of brain damages and the high mortality of ischemic stroke. The aim of this review is to explore the relationship between ischemic brain edema formation and vasopressin (VP) hypersecretion in addition to the oxygen and glucose deprivation and the
Rapid revascularization is highly effective for acute stroke, but animal studies suggest that reperfusion edema may attenuate its beneficial effects. We investigated the relationship between reperfusion and edema in patients from the Echoplanar Imaging Thrombolysis Evaluation Trial (EPITHET) and
UNASSIGNED
The management of patients with large territory ischemic strokes and the subsequent development of malignant brain edema and increased intracranial pressure is a significant challenge in modern neurology and neurocritical care. These patients are at high risk of subsequent neurologic
The clinico-anatomical analysis of 162 patients with strokes demonstrated the correlation of frequency and severity of changes in the lungs (edema-pneumonia) from the expressiveness of the secondary stem syndrome and the severity of secondary changes in the brain stem due to its dislocation, edema
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) has been shown to be important in the evolution of stroke-associated cerebral edema. However, the role of AQP4 in stroke-associated cerebral edema as it pertains to sex has not been previously studied. The perivascular pool of AQP4 is important in the influx and efflux of water
Conventional therapies for raised intracranial pressure (ICP) frequently are not effective. We report a patient with raised ICP following a large hemispheric stroke. After conventional therapies had failed, indomethacin was repeatedly administered. After bolus infusion (50 mg), the ICP fell by a
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the use of multiphasic helical computed tomography (CT) in predicting subsequent development of severe brain edema in patients with acute middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke.
METHODS
Case-control study.
METHODS
Tertiary referral hospital.
METHODS
We studied 31 patients with
Introduction: Malignant cerebral edema develops in a small subset of patients with hemispheric strokes, precipitating deterioration and death if decompressive hemicraniectomy (DHC) is not performed in a timely manner. Predicting which
Background and Purpose- Cerebral edema (CED) develops in the hours to days after stroke; the resulting increase in brain volume may lead to midline shift (MLS) and neurological deterioration. The time course and implications of edema formation are not well characterized across the spectrum of
