PbtO2 levels that correlate to severe brain hypoxia

<15mm Hg

(Based on K. Lee's Algorithm) What are the variables to treat with brain hypoxia and a metabolically stressed brain (PbtO2 <15 and LPR >40)

Address the following: CO, Hb, SaO2, intravascular volume, then optimize CPP

How do you improve CO in brain hypoxia?

IV milrinone or IV dobutamine

Best parameters to monitor when addressing intravascular volume

CVP, SVV, GEDVI, PAWP

Ideal CVP / PAWP for adequate intravascular volume?

CVP 8-12


PAWP 10-14

Ideal SVV showing adequate intravascular volume?

SVV <10%

Ideal GEDVI showing adequate intravascular volume

GEDVI 600-800

How do you optimize CPP?

Increase MAP, decrease ICP, normalize PbtO2 to >20mm Hg



Increase MAP by utilizing levophed and dopamine

Define the Lindegaard ratio?

Mean TCD velocity of MCA divided by mean TCD velocity of ipsilateral, extracranial ICA

What is the normal Lindegaard ratio?

<1.7, values >2.0 indicates higher risk f VSP



Institution-dependent, some say <1.5 is noraml

Lindegaard ratio for hyperemia, mild, mod, severe VSP?

Hypermedia 1.5-2.5


Mild 2.5-3.5


Mod 3.5-4.5


Severe >4.5

Interventions to decrease risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) - name 3

NS 1ml/kg/h x 12h


NaHCO3 3ml/kg/h x 12h


N-acetylcysteine 600mg IV prior then 600 mg PO BID x 2d

3 perfusion maps provided by CTP

MTT


CBV


CBV

CTP findings in vasospasm / DCI

MTT prolonged


CBF reduced


CBV normal or increased if autoregulation intact; reduced with infarction / ischemia

CTP showing a window of opportunity to intervene in DCI

When MTT is increased and CBF is reduced, and CBV shows either normal or incresaed blood flow

What is hyperdynamic therapy?

Increased cardiac index without significantly increasing BP

Parameters for hypovolemia

CVP 0-3


Anemia Hb <7


Low PAWP <10


GEDVI <680


SVV >13%


SVI <40 ml/m2


Low UO <0.5ml/kg/h

Normal cardiac output?

5-8 L/min

Normal cardiac index?

3-5 L/min/m2

Name 4 agents used in intra-arterial therapy of vasospasm

Papaverine


Nicardipine


Verapamil


Milrinone

What happens to FENa in CSW vs SIADH?

FENa is low (<1%) in CSW and high (>1%) in SIADH

What happens to serum uric acid levels in CSW and SIADH?

Serum UA level is low for both CSW and SIADH
