ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the risk factors of hyponatremia in postoperative patients with aneurysm and analyze the clinical characterstics in order to provide reference for clinic.Methods Participants included 120 patients who treated by aneurysm occlusion.Detailed recorded the patient's history and basic information.The patients with hyponatremia were in case group,and other patients were in control group.The risk factors of hyponatremia were analyzed.Results Forty-five patients (37.5％) occurred hyponatremia after operation.The level of natrium was (125.2 ± 10.1) mmol/L,the average time of appear hyponatremia was (8.2 ± 0.8) d,15 patients were in the first peak(postoperative 1-3 d),25 patients were in the second peak (postoperative 8-9 d),5 patients occurred hyponatremia at other time.Thirty-nine patients were internal carotid artery aneurysms,6 patients were vertebrobasilar artery aneurysms.Single factor analysis showed that the age,preoperative GCS scores,history of hypertension and diabetes,emergency operation,the size of arterial aneurysms,medium-sized aneurysm of artery between two groups had significant difference [(48.7 ± 8.4) years vs.(54.7 ± 8.4) years,(14.4 ± 3.1) scores vs.(10.3 ± 3.4)scores,26.7％ (20/75) vs.60.0％ (27/45),33.3％ (25/75) vs.62.2％ (28/45),32.0％ (24/75) vs.62.2％(28/45),(0.9 ±0.3) cm vs.(1.4 ±0.4) cm,24.0％(18/75) vs.42.2％(19/45),P ＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05].Multifactors regression analysis showed that preoperative GCS scores,emergency operation were the independent risk factors of hyponatremia (P＜ 0.05).Conclusions Postoperative 1-3 d and 8-9 d are the peak stage of hyponatremia.Different treatment should be adopted according the peak stage.Lower scores of preoperative GCS and emergency operation are the independent risk factors of hyponatremia.Clinical work need to pay more attention to the risk factors,appropriate treatment and prevention.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo study the clinical effect of YL-1 type hematoma puncture needle in the treatment of basal ganglion region cerebral hemorrhage.MethodsSixty-two patients with hypertensive basal ganglion region cerebral hemorrhage were treated by YL-1 type hematoma puncture needle from January 2007 to May 2011 (minimally invasive punctural evacuation group),of which,60 patients were treated by conservative treatment(conservative treatment group) as control,compared two groups of neural function defect score,hematoma clearance rate on admission,after 3 weeks treatment,and quality of life after 6 months.ResultsNeural function defect score on admission of minimally invasive punctural evacuation group was (23.6 ± 18.4) scores,while (23.4 ± 17.8) scores in conservative treatment group,the difference was not statistically significant(P ＞ 0.05).After 3 weeks' treatment,neural function defect score and hematoma clearance rate of minimally invasive punctural evacuation group was superior to conservative treatment group [ (14.6 ± 12.4) scores vs.(20.1 ± 18.4) scores,(92.3 ± 5.4)％ vs.(79.5 ± 13.8)％ ] (P ＜0.05 ).After 6 months' treatment,the good rate of quality of life in minimally invasive punctural evacuation group was 81.7％(49/60),which was significantly increased compared with that of conservative treatment group [67.2％ (39/58)] (P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionsThe minimally invasive punctural evacuation in the treatment of basal ganglion region cerebral hemorrhage has small invasion,better prognosis,effective and fast decompression of intracranial hematoma,reducing disability rates,improvement of the quality of life,which could be a beneficial complement for traditional therapies.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the role of electroencephalogram (EEG) examination in the prognosis evaluation of patients with severe craniocerebral injury.MethodsFifty-seven patients with severe craniocerebral injury were selected as study subjects and their clinical data were analyzed retrospectively.All the patients got EEG examination,and the relationships between EEG grading and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score,the prognosis of outcome were analyzed.ResultsThe EEG of 57 patients within 24 h after hospitalization were all abnormal.There was significantly negative correlation between EEG grading and GCS score (r =-0.742,P ＜0.05).EEG grading was significantly positively correlated with the prognosis of outcome (r =0.730,P＜ 0.05).ConclusionsEEG examination and EEG grading can evaluate the prognosis of patients with severe craniocerebral injury.It provides reference for clinical treatments.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the experience of prevention and treatment of cerebral vasospasm after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Methods Fifty-eight cases with aneurysmal SAH were taken as study objects and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients with intracranial aneurysm undergoing Guglielmi detachable coils (GDC) or mechanical detachable coils (MDC)embolization were treated comprehensively by papaverine solution lavage in surgical field during intracranial aneurysm surgery,lumbar continued drainage of cerebrospinal fluid, nimodipine infusion continuously and blood pressure increasing,blood volume improving,blood diluting (3H) therapy after operation. Results Among the total 58 cases of SAH, 8 patients occurred cerebral vasoapasm ( 13.8%),mainly included 4 cases of transient paralysis,2 cases of unconsciousness dcepened,2 cases of transient aphasia,after active treatment,the motor function, disturbance of consciousness and language functions all restored with none in plant state or died. Conclusion Detachable coil embolization underwent in earlier period and then drained cerebrospinal fluid, infusioned nimodipine, taken 3H therapy and so on are the effective measures for preventing and treating cerebral vasospasm after SAH.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the dynamical changes of Rho kinase in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and its relationship with cerebral vascular spasm CVS. Methods CSF were collected on the ist, 3rd, 7th, 10th and 14th day after subarachnoid hemorrhage. The expression of Rho-kinase mRNA in CSF was determined by RT-PCR. The expression of endothelin-1 in CSF was determined by radioimmuno-assay. TCD was used to measure the velocity of the cerebral artery. Results The levels of ET-1 and Rho-kinase mRNA in CSF were re-markably increased on the 3rd day, and reached at the peak on the 7th day after subarachnoid hemorrhage, which were significantly higher than those without CVS. Conclusion There is a positive correlation between the level of Rho-kinase mRNA and ET-1 in CSF. Rho-kinase may participate in the development of CVS.
