Diagnosis and Therapy of Increased Intracranial Pressure and Brain Edema in Fulminant Hepatic Failure
Brain edema is the final cause of death in fulminant hepatic failure in the majority of cases [9, 10, 12, 13, 20, 22, 23, 25]. The diagnosis of early forms and often even advanced forms is extremely difficult ...

Routine Computerized Neuromonitoring
In modern coronary care units and general intensive care units a variety of organ functions are monitored with computer assistance (Osswald 1985). In contrast, monitoring of the brain is usually dependent on f...

Intracranial pressure and electrical activity of the brain in various forms of experimental and clinical seizures
EEG paroxysms give rise to increased cerebral blood flow even when clinical seizure symptoms are induced to disappear completely by controlled artificial respiration. The concomitant rise of intracranial press...

Pathogenesis and Pathophysiology of Chronic Subdural Haematoma
The chronic subdural hematoma is defined as a clearly encapsulated accumulation of fluid between the dura and arachnoid membrane (11), generally occurring after slight brain trauma, often without apparent cause (

Chapter and Conference Paper
ICP and EEG in Various Forms of Cerebral Seizures
Cerebral seizures lead to an increase in cerebral blood flow (CBF). The increased blood flow is brought about by vascular dilatation created by a reduced pH due to raised CO2 and increased lactate(l). It can also...
