概括
使用步行,平衡和认知测试的新协议有助于识别正常压力脑水性病患者,这些患者可以从心室关节 (VPS) 放置中受益. 然而,手术后一年症状复发是常见的.
科学领域:
- 神经学 神经学
- 神经外科 神经外科
- 物理医学和康复 康复
背景情况:
- 正常压力脑症 (NPH) 治疗缺乏用于心室关节 (VPS) 排位的标准化指示.
- 目前的NPH管理通常依赖于主观评估,导致治疗结果变化.
研究的目的:
- 建立一个可靠的协议来识别NPH患者谁将从VPS受益.
- 评估VPS候选人的标准化评估协议的有效性和安全性.
主要方法:
- 制定了一项协议,涉及物理和职业治疗师进行行走,平衡和认知的验证测试.
- 评估患者之前和之后的腰部排水放置使用测试,如定时"上去"和迷你精神状态检查.
- 进行了根据该协议治疗的患者的回顾性审查,分析了VPS候选症和症状改善.
主要成果:
- 64%的患者接受了VPS,其中89.6%报告了最初症状的改善.
- 与对照组相比,在接受VPS的患者中观察到Tinetti分数的显著改善.
- 18%的患者经历了皮下液体收集,6%的患者在手术后出现了其他并发症.
结论:
- 标准化的脑脊液转移前后评估有效地识别了可能从VPS中受益的NPH患者.
- 该方案表明并发症率较低,但症状复发会在一年内影响大约一半的患者.

Increased Intracranial Pressure l: Introduction
Intracranial hypertension is a sustained elevation of intracranial pressure (ICP) above 22 mm Hg. In supine adults, normal ICP is ~7–15 mm Hg.The rigid, nonexpandable cranium contains three components—brain tissue, blood, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)—that total ~1,700 mL in a typical adult: 1,400 mL brain (~80%), 150 mL blood (~10%), and 150 mL CSF (~10%). According to the Monro–Kellie doctrine, total intracranial volume is effectively fixed. When one component expands, CSF and venous blood...
Increased Intracranial Pressure ll: Pathophysiology
Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) refers to a potentially life-threatening rise in pressure inside the skull. This usually happens when there is a major change in the volume of brain tissue, blood, or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) — the three components inside the skull. According to the Monro-Kellie doctrine, if the volume of one component increases, the volumes of the other components must decrease to maintain normal pressure. If this does not happen, ICP rises.The process often begins with...
