Due to their lack of inherent energy stores, neurons are particularly vulnerable to ischaemia and cellular damage starts immediately upon absence of CBF. At the cellular level, ischaemia results in cessation of aerobic metabolism with consequent depletion of high-energy substrate adenosine triphosphate (...
Data from our study clearly indicate that global brain due to may induce the susceptibility to spontaneous and audiogenic seizures, but this effect is transient. 展开 关键词: cardiac arrest audiogenic seizures spontaneous seizures global brain ischaemia ...
TBI can be divided into several stages: (i) the primary injury (due to the initial impact, e.g. contusion of the brain); (ii) the secondary injury, characterized by the spread of cell loss, diffuse axonal damage and also a 1Centre for Neuroscience and Trauma. Blizard Institute. Queen ...
Prevention of Ischemic Brain Damage Following Cardiac ArrestIschemic brain damage is the most feared complication following successful treatment of cardiac arrest. This paper reviews preventive and protective measures.doi:10.1007/978-3-642-83456-1_20Mogensen, L....
Some causes of Acquired Cerebral Palsy include brain damage in the first few months or years of life, brain infections such as bacterial meningitis or viral encephalitis, cerebrovascular accidents, e.g., caused by cardiac arrest (Figure 3) [29–31], stroke or cerebral hemorrhage associated with...
Secondary injury is delayed and is produced by complicating processes that are initiated at the moment of impact but do not present clinically for a period of hours to days after impact. Secondary injury includes damage due to ischemia, swelling (oedema) and alterations in neuronal and glial func...
The cornerstone of the prerequisites for a hospital to qualify as a Cardiac Arrest Center is therapeutic hypothermia, or cooling, a cutting-edge therapy the reduces the chance of lasting brain damage following cardiac arrest. Ad The establishment of cardiac arrest centers is one of three major ste...
Deep chest compressions can crack ribs, but they reduce brain damage during cardiac arrest, reports a study presented today at ESC Congress 2020. Study author Dr. Irene Marco Clement of University Hospital La Paz, Madrid, Spain said: "Deep chest compressions improveblood flowto the brain, improv...
