Intracerebral

The U.S. standard pertussis vacciae is used to standardize the potency of the whole ceU pertussis vacciae. The number of protective units Hi the vaccine is estimated for each lot from the results of simultaneous intracerebral mouse-protection tests of the vaccine being studied and the U.S. reference standard (14,17). The potency of the aceUular vaccines is estimated by then abUity to produce antibodies to the proteins Hi the vaccine Hi a mouse model. These vaccines also undergo a series of animal safety tests to ensure that the iaactivation and toxoiding steps were carried out correctiy (14,17). [Pg.357]

Melarsoprol, a trivalent organic melaminophenyl arsenic compound, kills intracerebral parasites of both T. brucei gambiense and T. brucei rhodesiense. Melarsoprol accumulates via an adenosine/adenine transporter in trypanosomes and is believed to inhibit glycolytic enzymes. Melarsoprol leads to a rapid lysis of trypanosomes. Melarsoprol is highly toxic to humans. [Pg.179]

Inexperienced users or individuals who are exposed to the drug unexpectedly (e.g., who unknowingly consume PCP-adulterated cannabis) may develop severe anxiety and panic because of the intensity and variety of symptoms. Perceptual distortions have sometimes led to extremely violent behavior, accidents, or self-damaging acts. An especially high risk of violent behavior has been reported in acutely intoxicated PCP users who have a history of psychiatric problems. Intoxication with doses in excess of 150 mg may lead to convulsions, coma, and death from respiratory arrest. Other complications include hypertensive crisis, intracerebral hemorrhage, and renal failure (Table 6-5). [Pg.232]

The modern period in the history of stroke began in the 1960s when C.

TABLE 4.2 Management of Symptomatic Intracerebral Hemorrhage after Intraarterial Thrombolysis. [Pg.74]

The efficacy of IV thrombolysis in patients with moderate-to-severe strokes due to proximal arterial occlusions is restricted by several factors, including the relatively short therapeutic window, poor recanalization rates as the clot burden increases, restrictive eligibility criteria, and the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage. Endovascular techniques improve the rates of recanalization in this patient population, and appear to increase the likelihood of a good functional outcome. Intravenous thrombolysis... [Pg.89]

The timing of CEA after ischemic stroke has been a controversial issue. In 1969, the Joint Study of Extracranial Arterial Occlusion reported 42% mortality after CEA in patients with neurological deficits of less than 2 weeks duration, compared with 5% mortality in patients with more than 2 weeks of symptoms. Early evidence also demonstrated an increased risk of intracerebral hemorrhage after early CEA in patients with acute stroke. This led to the conclusion that most complications occurred with early surgical intervention, and resulted in a traditional 4-6 week delay for CEA after an acute stroke. In retrospect, however, there were major problems with patient selection in these earlier reports. Many of the patients... [Pg.124]

Placebo-Controlled Trials ofUFH, LMWH, and Heparinoids The International Stroke Trial (1ST) was a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of UFH (5000 or 12,500 lU twice daily) and aspirin (300 mg) in 19,435 unselected patients with acute stroke within 48 hours of symptom onset. Because of limited availability of neuroimaging, 33% of participants were enrolled with suspected but not proven ischemic stroke, some of whom may have suffered primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). [Pg.139]

Corticosteroids have been evaluated in several types of cerebral injury, including cerebral infarction. Corticosteroids reduce vasogenic edema, such as that associated with neoplasms, but not cytotoxic edema, the type associated with ischemic stroke. A large meta-analysis found no benefit to the use of corticosteroids in ischemic stroke (or intracerebral hemorrhage), and their use is not recommended, except to treat concomitant conditions that mandate it (e.g., COPD flare). [Pg.175]

Other methods for ICP monitoring include Camino ICP monitors, which are positioned into the brain parenchyma, but do not transverse the hemisphere nearly to the degree that EVDs do, and are associated with a lower risk of intracerebral hemorrhage. The ICP is measured by a fiberoptic transducer at the tip of the cathe-ter. ° ICP monitors, however, are subject to inaccuracy over time, so-called drift, and thus may become less reliable after the first few days post-insertion. Epidural and subarachnoid bolts/catheters are the least invasive, placed external to or just within the dura, thereby carrying a much lower risk of hemorrhage and infection, but with unfortunately compromised accuracy. [Pg.186]
