Brain Ultrasound in the Weaning of External Ventricular Leads

HydrocephalusIntracranial Hypertension

External Ventricular Deviation (EDV) is a medical device that provides transient and controlled external drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This device can also monitor intracranial pressure (ICP). SEV is an emergency measure indicated for acute hydrocephalus and / or intracranial hypertension (HTIC). Weaning from a DVE should be considered as soon as possible from the moment the patient's clinical condition allows it. There is no consensus on how to wean SEVs. The main objective of this study is to evaluate inter and intraobserver reproducibility of the measurement of the 3rd ventricle size by ultrasound in patients receiving a DVE withdrawal test.

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

With the advent of the aging society, dementia becomes the focus of common people. As for the neurodegeneration dementia, no disease modifying treatments have been discovered. Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is considered as one of reversible dementia, which can be hint by the surgery. In addition, dementia of iNPH is the typical subcortical dementia. Therefore exploring the pathogenic mechanism is conducive to the early diagnosis and treatment. This research is to monitor the changing of iNPHGS, cognitive function, walking ability as well as brain construction imaging and neural network before and after ventriculo-peritoneal shunting in order to demonstrate the pathogenesis of triads. In the process, the supplementary test, for instance, CSF tap test, will be validated the predictive value.

Comparison of Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter on Retrobulbar Ultrasonography Before and After Drainage...

Hydrocephalus

Studies in patients with intracranial hypertension have shown a good relationship between optic nerve sheath diameter measured by retrobulbar ultrasound and invasively measured intracranial pressure. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in optic nerve sheath diameter before and after drainage of cerebrospinal fluid in patients with hydrocephalus.
