چکیده
OBJECTIVES To investigate acute changes of systemic parameters following experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and cerebral vasospasm conditions created by intracisternal injection of fresh autologous blood in a rabbit model. METHODS The study was carried out at the Neurosurgery Clinic, Izmir Training and Research Hospital, Izmir, Turkey between April 2002 and March 2005. Thirty-two male rabbits were divided into the following 4 groups: group one with mild hemorrhage received 0.5 cc of blood, group 2 with moderate hemorrhage received 0.7 cc of blood, group 3 with severe hemorrhage received 1 cc of blood, and the sham-operated group 4 with no blood. The clinical parameters of all animals were monitored 2 hours after the operation, and blood analysis was performed just after hemorrhage. A series of systemic parameters such as rectal temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and blood gas analysis were measured before and after administration of blood injection. Results were compared by analysis of variance and paired t-tests, and p-values less than 0.05 were considered significant. RESULTS The systolic blood pressures were significantly different in groups 1, 2, and 3 before and after the bleeding period. The diastolic blood pressures were also considerably different. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that the presence of a blood clot and different amounts of blood in the subarachnoid space can evoke a series of changes in both local and systemic states in experimental models.

CORRELATION BE TWEEN ENDOTHELIAL INJURY AND CEREBRAL VASOSPASM FOLLOWING A DOUBLE SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE IN THE RAT
While a wide array of pathological changes occur in cerebral arteries following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), the most consistent is endothelial damage. Since the endothelium normally modulates reflexes that influence vascular tone, any damage to it may represent a significant contributor to cerebral vasospasm following SAH. This experimental study investigates the correlation between end...

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) resulting from a ruptured intracranial aneurysm can induce cerebral vasospasm with subsequent reduction in cerebral blood flow (CBF). The present study examines the pathological alterations in the wall of human cerebral arteries at autopsy, especially with regard to intimal pathology, following aneurysmal SAH. Arterial segments from the circle of Willis were fi...

Cerebral vasospasm considered to be a serious cause of morbidity and mortality following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH).Despite several available therapeutic options, current protocols do not prevent major consequences of vasospasm. Inflammation is believed to play an important role in post-haemorrhagic vasospasm. Meloxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. The aim of this study was to...

متن کاملThe Experimental Study of Increased ICP on Cerebral Hemorrhage Rabbits with Magnetic Induction Phase Shift Method
Introduction Measuring magnetic induction phase shift (MIPS) changes as a function of cerebral hemorrhage volume has the potential for being a simple method for primary and non-contact detection of the occurrence and progress of cerebral hemorrhage. Our previous MIPS study showed that the intracranial pressure (ICP) was used as a contrast index and found the primary correlation between MIPS and...
