The authors in this study point out the portability and flexibility of TCD as predestined for bed-side applications and thus meeting the concept of POCUS. Moreover, the authors also highlight the fact that TCD may be more useful in daily practice for identification of a...
During surgical procedures, monitoring of CBF can be used to identify changes in blood flow that may indicate inadequate cerebral perfusion or ischemia. This information can help the surgical team make real-time adjustments to optimize cerebral perfusion and minimize the risk of cerebral damage....
The concept of NeuroPOCUS describes the performance of ultrasound by the clinician in charge of the patient’s therapy on-site, regardless of where he or she may be located. The goal of NeuroPOCUS is directed/focused portable ultrasound examination of the head, neck, and/or musculoskeletal system, performed...
Monitoring of sufficient brain perfusion is an essential part of anesthesiology and intensive care medicine. Transcranial Doppler Sonography is a non-invasive method, which provides real-time information about the cerebral haemodynamical situation, for instance...
Regular measurement of blood flow velocities (BFV) using ultrasound allows to draw conclusions on vascular luminal changes, which is inversely proportional to the BFV and can be frequently repeated bedside since it does not require invasive techniques....
