Role of transcranial Doppler in neurocritical care.
Transcranial Doppler has several practical applications in neurocritical care. It has its main application in the diagnosis and monitoring of vasospasm in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. In addition, it holds promise for the detection of critical elevations of intracranial pressure. Its ability to measure CO2 reactivity and autoregulation may ultimately allow intensivists to optimize cer...
متن کاملTranscranial Doppler ultrasound.
Transcranial Doppler ultrasound allows measurements of blood flow velocity to be made from the basal intracerebral vessels. The major advantages of transcranial Doppler ultrasound are that it is non-invasive, relatively cheap, can be performed with portable machines, allows monitoring for prolonged periods, and has a high temporal resolution making it ideal for studying dynamic cerebrovascular ...
متن کاملPower transcranial Doppler ultrasound in the detection of intracranial aneurysms.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to perform a large, prospective, multicenter, blinded study comparing power transcranial color duplex sonography (power TCDS) with intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (IADSA) in the detection of intracranial aneurysms. METHODS Contemporaneous TCDS and IADSA examinations were performed in 171 subjects with suspected intracranial aneurysm. Via the tem...
متن کاملTranscranial pulsed Doppler ultrasound findings in brain stem death.
Data are presented from transcranial insonation of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) performed at intervals in 23 unconscious children for whom the outcome was subsequently poor. Once an MCA signal had been observed over a 30 minute period with time averaged velocity less than 10 cm s-1 and/or a direction of flow index, DFI, defined as 1 minus the ratio of reverse to forward flow of less than 0....
متن کاملTranscranial Doppler ultrasound findings in middle cerebral artery occlusion.
We evaluated the efficacy of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in 23 patients suffering from acute middle cerebral artery occlusion. The diagnosis of occlusion was most suggestive when all basal arteries except the affected middle cerebral artery were detectable. Enhanced blood flow velocity in the anterior cerebral artery due to leptomeningeal collateralization was used as a corroborating c...
