Stroke is one of the most serious complications that occur in children suffering from sickle cell disease (SCD)....
28 Feb 2023 Neuromonitoring in Neonates
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....
16 Feb 2023 Neuro-POCUS
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...
24 Feb 2022 Stroke evaluation by determination of high stenosis, occlusion, and emboli detection
TCD provides real-time information about the blood flow in addition to the hemodynamic changes as a result of various physiological as well as pathological states. TCD can predict stroke by determination of high blood flow velocities, which allows indirect conclusions on stenosis or occlusion....
16 Feb 2022 Diagnosis and prognosis for Sickle Cell Disease
TCD has its importance in diagnosis, treatment decisionmaking, and prognosis of Sickle Cell Disease. By TCD measurement of elevated blood flow velocities (BFV), children, who may benefit from blood transfusions, can be identified even months before stroke. TCD guided, intensified therapy reduces stroke risk....
