Background and objectives: Bedside sonographic duplex technique (SDT) may be used as
an adjunct to cranial computed tomography (CCT) to monitor brain-injured patients after …

Background The objective of this study was to assess and compare ventricle diameters in
patients after decompressive craniectomy by using cranial computed tomography (CCT) …

Objective: Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is widely used to treat intracranial hypertension
following severe head injury. However, impairments of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) …

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Computed tomography (CT) is the actual gold
standard diagnostic tool for monitoring patients after decompressive craniectomy. It is …

Background Cerebral hemodynamic transformation is a relatively common finding in
patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Knowledge of cerebral hemodynamic disturbance …

Introduction It is challenging to assess the prognosis of patients with severe traumatic brain
injury (sTBI) after large decompressive craniectomy (DC). The aim of this study was to …

Background: There are no studies describing the cerebral hemodynamic patterns that can
occur in traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients following decompressive craniectomy (DC) …

Evaluation of brain structures represents a vital element of the practice in a neurointensive
care unit. Several monitoring techniques may be used to guide crucial therapeutic decisions …

Background: Monitoring and evaluation of intracranial structures remain a fundamental
element in the neurointensive care unit. Most used technique to monitor progression is the …

Background A cranioplasty (CP) is often performed after decompressive craniectomy (DC)
for cosmetic and protective reasons; however, the timing of CP needs to be better evaluated …
