The study will be carried out from August 2021 to August 2024 in Zanskar Valley (Ladakh). Participants, interventions and outcomes Setting The study will be conducted in the Zanskar Valley (Ladakh). The subjects (5 to 14 years old) will be randomly selected from a list of school class in the

1. Introduction: Global cerebral ischaemic-reperfusion brain injury following cardiac arrest (CA) can lead to intracranial hypertension and, occasionally, acute brain swelling. Even small increases in brain volume due to edema can result in harmful increases in intracranial pressure due to the

Introduction: Hyperventilation has been used for intraoperative brain relaxation for decades, Interestingly, this common practice is not based on robust evidence . The mechanism of brain relaxation secondary to hyperventilation is attributed to the hypocapnia induced cerebral vasoconstriction and

Lung cancer is the most common cancer, accounting for 20% of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In 2015, an estimated 610,200 patients (22 per cent of cancer-related deaths) died of lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer ((NSCLC)) accounts for 80% to 85% of lung cancer. Most patients are locally

This is a prospective cohort based observational study including 40 patients admitted in the adult ICU at our center diagnosed as either a case of TBI/ acute stroke/ intracranial hemorrhages with a mean screening ONSD of more than 5mm under mannitol osmotherapy. ONSD were measured by a high

Introduction Ocular ischemia due to diabetic retinopathy (DR) and central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) are the most common causes that contribute to the development of neovascular glaucoma (NVG). Ischemic retina derived factors like vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) that can affect the

Operative hysteroscopy is currently used in the treatment of several diseases including submucosal myomas, polyps, uterine septum, and abnormal intrauterine bleeding. Two different methods for distension of the uterus for hysteroscopy are available currently. One is monopolar and the second is

1. Introduction Changes in nutritional status are a frequent complication in cirrhotic patients. The prevalence of malnutrition is related to the severity of the disease and has been reported by 65-90% in advanced cirrhosis. The most significant component of malnutrition is a progressive and

Study Setting All patients affected by moderate TBI (Glasgow Coma Score 9-13) admitted to the neurosurgical department of the University Hospital of Messina, Italy, will be screened for recruitment. Ethics The institutional review board (IRB) approved the study. Written consent will be obtained from

Traumatic brain injury is the main cause of increased intracranial pressure (ICP) in the intensive care . There are multiple methods for monitoring the raised ICP either invasive or non-invasive.The gold standard is the invasive devices because it is more accurate and reliable .However ,it requires

- Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is a highly prevalent and prognostically important complication in various surgical settings. Patients who developed postoperative AKI is independently associated with markedly increased morbidity, mortality1-8 and higher economic burden1. - AKI was defined

Osmotherapy is commonly used in the treatment of intracranial hypertension (ICH) due to a variety of causes, including head trauma, intracranial neoplasia, infection or hemorrhage, and status epilepticus. The principle goal of osmotherapy is to shift fluid from the intracellular into the

HTS is used to mitigate and temporize intracranial pressure (ICP) elevations and cerebral edema by creating an osmotic gradient across the cell wall. HTS is part of the elevated ICP algorithm in the emergency neurologic life support protocols HTS is superior to mannitol which is the alternate

Between 2005 and 2016, in our Department 57 consecutive patients underwent cystoscopy under anaesthesia to classify those cases suspected of BPS/IC. Patients reported long-lasting irritative bladder symptoms, including urgency, daytime frequency of seven or more episodes, nocturia, and pain in the
