Treatment of Patients with Neurological Deficits Associated with Cerebral Vasospasm by Intravascular Volume Expansion

摘要: Four patients, including one preoperative patient, developed neurological deficits associated with angiographically proven cerebral vasospasm and were treated intravascular volume expansion. Indicator dilution techniques employed to monitor cardiac functions during treatment. All four patients improved promptly. None of the or pulmonary dysfunction despite marked increase in several risk factors such as symptoms, electrocardiographic abnormalities, advanced age. The monitoring controlling are described. We believe that this is an important therapeutic adjunct for certain aneurysm patients.
