Terapeutické využití ultrazvuku u pacientů s cerebrovaskulárním onemocněním. / Therapeutic use of ultrasound in patients with cerebrovascular diseases.

Kuliha, Martin January 2018 (has links)
Background: Sonolysis is an important factor in therapeutic use of ultrasound in patients with cerebrovascular diseases, it is ultrasound induced lysis of thrombus or embolus. The aim of this work was to asses safety and efficacy of therapeutic ultrasound effect (sonolysis) in acute stroke patients and in patients undergoing carotid artery intervention. First partial aim of this work was to confirm the safety and efficacy of endovascular sonolysis by using the EkoSonic Endovascular System in subjects with acute ischemic stroke. Second partial aim of this work was to test the clinical efficacy of sonolysis for reducing the risk of incidence of new brain ischaemic lesions detected on brain magnetic resonance imaging in patients undergoing elective CEA or CAS for severe internal carotid stenosis. In addition, we assessed the effects of sonolysis on cognitive function, morbidity, and mortality at 30 days post-surgery. Methods: Patients with acute ischemic stroke and occlusion of the middle cerebral artery or basilar artery were enrolled consecutively to the prospective study tested safety and efficacy of endovascular sonolysis using the EkoSonic Endovascular System (EKOS) in patients with acute stroke. The control group (44 MCA and 12 BA occlusions) was selected from historical controls. EkoSonic...

Současné možnosti použití centrifugálního čerpadla v kardiochirurgii / Current Possibilities in Use of a Centrifugal Pump in the Cardiac Sugery

Mlejnský, František January 2016 (has links)
Current Possibilities in Use of a Centrifugal Pump in the Cardiac Sugery Abstract Currently, the most commonly used technical solution for pumping blood during extracorporeal circulation during cardiac surgery, as well as for some types of ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) are either a roller pump or centrifugal pump. Due to its advantages the centrifugal pump is mainly used for prolonged extracorporeal circulation in cardiac surgery and as a heart and / or lung support system. In current literature there is a lack of compelling scientific evidence that would clearly support its use in a routine cardiac surgery. The aim of our study was to compare both types of currently used blood pumps in longer cardiac procedures with deep hypothermic circulation arrest. In a randomized clinical study we had selected a group of patients that underwent a pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) in order to demonstrate the positive effects of the centrifugal pump on the postoperative inflammatory reactions. There were no statistically significant differences between these two pumps when other clinical and laboratory parameters were observed. Based on the hypothesis that significant temperature changes during cardiac procedure with a deep hypothermia can affect sealing pressure of the endotracheal tube cuff, we performed a...

Syndrom karotického pahýlu / The Carotid Stump Syndrome

Hrbáč, Tomáš January 2012 (has links)
Introduction: Internal Carotid Stump Syndrome may be one of the possible causes of ischemic stroke (iCMP), as well as retinal infarction (RI). Syndrome of the occluded internal carotid (ACI) (stump syndrome) is a nosological unit, which is characterized by an onset of ipsilateral iCMP or RI of thromboembolic ethiology in patients with occlusion of ACI via the externa carotid or arteria ophthalmica. In my thesis, I have concentrated upon the specification of the stump syndrome, its diagnostics and treatment; furthermore I have assessed the appropriateness of surgical approach in comparison with conservative approach. Material and methods: A total of 621 patients with occlusion were treated in two centres in the course of five years. In a group of 40 patients, the ACI occlusion was detected sonographically, the length of the occluded ACI being >5 mm, with normal vasoreactivity based upon SPECT CO2 and excluded cardiogenic cause of iCMP. The patients were divided in two groups - surgical and conservative. Patients were monitored in 6-month intervals for the total period of four years. Results: No RI or iCMP were detected in the surgical group; one patient died six months after surgery. We observed one case of amaurosis fugax in the conservative group. Conclusion: Ultrasound examination is a fully sufficient...
