Posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation.
Posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation is the most serious direct complication of intraventricular haemorrhage after preterm birth. It results initially from multiple small blood clots throughout the cerebrospinal fluid channels impeding circulation and reabsorption. Management is difficult and new treatment approaches are needed.
متن کاملBrain specific proteins in posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation.
Median neurofilament and glial fibrillary acidic protein concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid of 18 infants with posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation were 20-200 times higher than control values. S-100 protein in cerebrospinal fluid was four times higher than control values. Glial fibrillary acidic protein concentrations correlated with death or disability and with parenchymal lesions b...
متن کاملAuditory brain stem responses in infants with posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation.
Nineteen infants with posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation had auditory brain stem responses measured during the period of maximal ventricular dilatation. These showed various patterns ranging from normal, through various abnormalities, to complete absence of responses. When serial auditory brain stem responses were studied in parallel with the evolution of posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilat...
متن کاملCan neurophysiological assessment improve timing of intervention in posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation?
OBJECTIVE Intraventricular haemorrhage is still the most common cause of brain lesion in preterm infants and development of a posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD) can lead to additional neurological sequelae. Flash visual evoked potentials (fVEP) and amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) are non-invasive neurophysiological monitoring tools. The aim of the study was to eva...
متن کاملRandomised trial of early tapping in neonatal posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation. Ventriculomegaly Trial Group.
Treatment of posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation by early repeated cerebrospinal fluid taps was compared with conservative management in a randomised controlled trial of 157 infants in 15 centres. Thirty infants died and six moved abroad before follow up. During the first 14 days after randomisation, the early treatment group had five times more taps, and 12 times more cerebrospinal fluid r...
