Sitting position improves consciousness level in patients with cerebral disorders
Cerebral disorders are often associated with disturbance of consciousness. Since the latter could alter the prognosis of physical function, early improvement of consciousness level is important. The present study tested the hypothesis that sitting position improves disturbances of consciousness in patients with cerebral disorders. The subjects were 17 patients with cerebral disorders and distur...

متن کاملCerebral oxygenation monitoring of patients during arthroscopic shoulder surgery in the sitting position
BACKGROUND Cerebral hypotension and desaturation can occur during shoulder surgery in the seated position. We evaluated the correlation of cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO(2)) using near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) and mean arterial pressures (MAP) (at the levels of the brain and heart). METHODS Fifty patients, scheduled for the arthroscopic shoulder surgery in the seated position, were enro...
متن کاملcomparison of successful spinal needle placement between crossed-leg sitting position and traditional sitting position in patients undergoing urology surgery
results the rate of first-time successful spinal needle insertion was not significantly different between the clsp and tsp groups (62.9% versus 55.7%, p > 0.05). ease of landmark palpation in the clsp group was not significantly different from that in the tsp group (86.7% versus 76.4%, p > 0.05). the number of needle-bone contacts in both groups were not significantly different (p > 0.05). the ...
متن کامل[Changes in cerebral blood flow velocity in supine and sitting position in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage].
BACKGROUND Early mobilization in intensive care units (ICU) provides respiratory, neurological and cardiovascular benefits in hospitalized patients. However, the orthostatic effects of changing from a supine to a sitting position may interfere with cerebral hemodynamics of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). AIM To describe the changes in mean cerebral blood flow velocity...
