Download or read book QUANTITATIVE EEG IS CORRELATED WITH MIDLINE SHIFT IN PATIENTS WITH LARGE HEMISPHERIC INFARCTION written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: Studies on monitoring the space-occupying edema due to acute large hemispheric infarction remain scarce. This study aimed to determine the association between quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) parameters and midline shift in patients with malignant middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction.Methods: Patients with unilateral ischemic changes that affect two-thirds or more of the territory of the MCA were included. EEG monitoring was performed within seven days after the stroke onset. The delta/alpha ratio (delta power/alpha power ratio, DAR) was calculated using fast Fourier transformation. The brain midline structures shift was measured based on CT or MRI that was performed within six hours before or after the EEG monitoring. The association between the DAR and midline shift was analyzed.Results: A total of 24 records of EEG from 17 patients were analyzed. The DAR of channels representing the non-infarct hemisphere was significantly associated with midline shift (r=-0.7644uff0cP0.0001). The mean DAR when midline shift was no more than 5mm was higher than that when more than 5mm (0.36u00b10.76u03bcV2/Hz vs. 1.02u00b10.64u03bcV2/Hz [mean u00b1 standard deviation], P=0.0009). DAR

Download or read book Mechanisms of Secondary Brain Damage written by A. Baethmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A distinction between primary and secondary brain damage of vari ous origin, particularly in acute lesions, such as head injury and ische mia is not entirely new. The concept is of practical significance, be cause it is the foremost intention of all clinical efforts to prevent, or at least attenuate the development of secondary sequelae. Primary dam age to nervous elements usually cannot be influenced by treatment. Its prevention is the objective of prophylactic measures. The current volume gathered prominent scientists and clinicians from various fields to pro vide a competent introduction and survey of the various aspects involved in secondary brain damage. It was attempted to provide criteria for the distinction between the primary and secondary phenomena on a morpho logical and functional level, on the basis of the kinetics involved and, most importantly, regarding the different specific manifestations, such as disturbances of microcirculation, aspects of the blood-brain barrier, and of cellular structure and function at a molecular level. Although it was not expected that a grand unifying hypothesis will be reached recon cilable with the many, occasionally opposing views on such a complex subject, nevertheless, the present volume attains an appropriate result. It can best be described as a mosaic of many different pieces which only as an ensemble reflect the current state of the art.
Download or read book QUANTITATIVE EEG ANALYSIS DURING AN ACTIVE HAND GRASPING TASK IN ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE AS A POTENTIAL PREDICTOR OF FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY written by Leigh R. Hochberg and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background and Aims:Neurophysiological mechanisms of motor functional recovery (MFR) after ischemic stroke are in part unknown, hindering the possibility to develop targeted rehabilitative strategies. Emerging evidence suggests that an interplay with secondary areas of the motor system facilitates MFR. We hypothesized that a task-based quantitative EEG analysis (qEEG) performed in the acute phase might help precisely predict the degree of MFR at follow-up. Methods:We recruited 14 adult patients with ischemic stroke (9 cortical, 5 subcortical) and contralateral upper extremity weakness. Patients underwent a 128-channel EEG recording in the acute phase (T0) during resting state (eyes closed, EyCl) and while continuously opening and closing the affected hand with eyes closed (LHEC). Clinical recovery was assessed at T0, 6 weeks (T1), and 3 months (T2) using FMUE scale (Fugl-Meyer Upper Extremity) and NIHSS. The difference in beta power spectral density (u0394u03b2PSD) between EyCl and LHEC was calculated for every electrode, and the patient-specific averaged u0394u03b2PSD value for significantly-different electrodes was correlated with the clinically-measured recovery. Results:Significantly-different u0394u03b2PSD electrodes were identified over the ipsilesional premotor cortex. When considering all strokes, averaged u0394u03b2PSD values significantly correlated with u0394NIHSS at T0-T2 (p = 0.028). In cortical strokes, we found significant correlations between u0394u03b2PSD and u0394NIHSS at T0-T1 (p = 0.05) and T0-T2 (p = 0.038), and with u0394FMUE at T1-T0 (p = 0.039). Subcortical strokes did not show significant clinical recovery.Conclusions:Task-based qEEG analysis of u0394u03b2PSD in acute stroke precisely predicts motor functional recovery at 6 weeks and 3 months after stroke. Its adoption in stroke care could allow for targeted rehabilitative therapies, optimizing medical resources.

Download or read book Ions in the Brain written by George G. Somjen and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-29 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ions, their transport across membranes, and their flow through specialized ion channels are central to the understanding of brain function, normal and pathological. The first part of this book deals with the regulation of ions in brain extra- and intracellular fluids. Regulation is effected by the blood-brain barrier, and by membrane ion pumps and other transport mechanisms of neurons and glial cells. Normally adjusted for optimal neural function, ion levels can change and alter the excitability of neurons and influence synaptic transmission in healthy and diseased brains. After an introduction to the electrophysiology of epilepsy, and a description of experimental seizure "models," the second part discusses the roles of the faulty regulation of ions and of the diseases of ion channels in generating epileptic seizures. The mechanisms of action of various anticonvulsant drugs are also considered. The third part is devoted to the phenomenon of spreading depression and its likely role in human diseases. The final chapters of the book deal with the role of ions in the devastation caused by lack of oxygen and by insufficient blood flow to brain tissue, and the reasons for the exceptional vulnerability of certain classes of central neurons in hypoxia and stroke. The book will be of interest to neuroscientists, neurobiologists, neurophysiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and to their students and trainees.
