Measurement of Blood Pressure01:17

Measurement of Blood Pressure

4.0K
Assessing blood pressure is a standard procedure executed in virtually all medical environments. The method utilized today was established over a hundred years ago by an innovative Russian doctor, Dr. Nikolai Korotkoff. The soft ticking noise, known as Korotkoff sounds, heard while taking blood pressure readings results from turbulent blood flow within the vessels. The apparatus required for this procedure includes a sphygmomanometer, a blood pressure cuff attached to a gauge, and a...

Drug Delivery: Parenteral Route

2.7K
The parenteral route is a critical method of drug administration. It delivers compounds directly into the systemic circulation and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. This approach is particularly advantageous for drugs that exhibit poor absorption or instability when administered orally.
There are three primary parenteral routes: intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and subcutaneous (SC). The IV route introduces the drug directly into the bloodstream, ensuring immediate action. The IM route...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Critical Care Medicine
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Intracranial pressure (ICP) management is critical in severe traumatic brain injury.
  • Burst suppression is a neurophysiological state induced by anesthetic agents.
  • The precise role of burst suppression in ICP control remains debated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review the literature on the efficacy of burst suppression for intracranial pressure control.
  • To evaluate the strength of evidence supporting or refuting burst suppression's effect on ICP.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature search across multiple databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, etc.) and clinical trial registries.
  • Inclusion of gray literature and reference lists.
  • Evidence strength adjudicated using Oxford and GRADE methodologies.

Main Results:

  • Seven studies involving 108 patients receiving burst suppression were reviewed.
  • Two studies did not demonstrate a significant ICP decrease with burst suppression.
  • Adverse events included hypotension and infections with barbiturates, and renal dysfunction with etomidate.

Conclusions:

  • Evidence (Oxford 2b, GRADE C) is conflicting regarding burst suppression's effect on ICP in severe traumatic brain injury.
  • Potential benefits for ICP reduction exist but are not clearly defined.
  • Impact on functional outcomes and optimal use cases require further investigation.
