intracranial hemorrhage and entrapment neuropathy are the most serious and disabling complications in hemophilia.the occurance of these neurological complications was studied in 214 hemophiliac patients during a 3 month period. nine patients (4.2%) suffered intracranial hemorrhage (one epidural and others intracerebral). all of intracranial hemorrhage patients had the sevee form of disease (<1%...

discussions as one ich patient whose pt and aptt suggest a coagulation disorder secondary to vitamin k deficiency or coagulation factor deficiency, unresponsiveness to vitamin k therapy should be useful to take fx deficiency into consideration. background inborn factor x deficiency (fxd) is a very rare (1: 500,000) hereditary coagulation disorder, which is characterized by clinical manifestatio...

Background and Aim: This study aimed at analyzing the demographic characteristics of the patients with non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage, their angiographic results and the correlation between computed tomography (CT) scan and angiography findings. Methods and Materials/Patients: In a descriptive study, we retrospectively reviewed the records of the patients with non-traumatic intracranial...

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...

 ABSTRACT Background: High resolution CT scan has made early diagnosis of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) easier. Posttraumatic intraventricular hemorrhage has been reported to a greater extent because of the CT scan. Methods: 904 patients were admitted in the NSICU from March 2001 to March 2002 with severe closed head injury, of those only 31 patients with intraventricular hemorrhage (GCS le...

intracranial hemorrhage is one of the major causes of neonatal mortality and morbidity. it is the most severe cranial problem in that period. those who survive would be affected by hydrocephalus, encephalomalacia, and finally brain atrophy. with accurate knowledge of risk factors, hemorrhage may be diagnosed earlier and the complications managed earlier. this study was performed in neonatal int...

BACKGROUND The Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events (THRIVE) score is a clinical prediction score that predicts ischemic stroke outcomes in patients receiving intravenous tissue plasminogen activator, endovascular stroke treatment, or no acute therapy. We have previously found an association between THRIVE and risk of post-tissue plasminogen activator symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage in t...

background: simultaneous electrocardiographic (ecg) changes are seen in hemorrhagic brain events even in the absence of associated myocardial infarction (mi). this study was designed to assess the role of ecg changes to predict true mi in patients with hemorrhagic brain trauma. methods: data of 153 patients with traumatic brain injury and concomitant ecg changes were recorded. enzyme study was ...

conclusions bscta is easily accessible, less time consuming, and most importantly, a non-invasive technique for detecting intracranial aneurysms. it is also suitable for patients who have been referred to emergency services. therefore, it can be used in emergency conditions and as a first-line diagnostic method in patients with non-traumatic sah. patients and methods sixty consecutive patients ...
