Abstract

BACKGROUND: Cranioplasty (CP) is supposed to improve the functional outcome of severe acquired brain injury (sABI) patients with decompressive craniectomy (DC). However, ongoing controversies exist regarding its indications, optimum materials, timing, complications, and relationships with hydrocephalus (HC). For these reasons, an International Consensus Conference (ICC) on CP in traumatic brain injury (TBI) was held in June 2018 to issue some recommendations. AIM: The aims of this study were: to investigate cross-sectionally before the ICC the prevalence of DC/CP in sABI inpatients admitted to neu- rorehabilitation units in Italy; to assess the perception of Italian clinicians working in the sABI neurorehabilitation settings on the management of inpatients with DC/CP during their rehabilitation stay. DESIGN: Cross-sectional. SETTING AND POPULATION: Physiatrists or neurologists working in 38 Italian rehabilitation centers involved in the care of sABI, giving a pooled sample of 599 inpatients. METHODS: Survey questionnaire consisting of 21 closed-ended questions with multiple-choice answers. Sixteen questions regarded the respondents' opinions and experiences regarding the clinical and management aspects of patients. Survey data were collected via e-mail between April and May 2018. RESULTS: About 1/3 of the 599 inpatients had either a DC (18.9%) or a CP (13.5%). TBI and cerebral hemorrhage were strongly associated with DC/CP, although the association was much stronger for TBI. Significant discrepancies were uncovered between some of the recommendations of the ICC and the corresponding perceptions of the respondents, especially regarding the clinical management of patients (i.e., CP timing). Clear guidelines were perceived as the most crucial factor in improving clinical pathways. CONCLUSIONS: Early collaboration between the neurosurgical and the neurorehabilitation teams is crucial to optimize all clinical and organizational factors, which could expedite CP and minimi

Abstract

Introduction: the aim of the work was to update the “guidelines for the Management of severe traumatic Brain Injury” published in 2012, to reflect the new available evidence, and develop the Italian national guideline for the management of severe pediatric head injuries to reduce variation in practice and ensure optimal care to patients. eViDeNce acQUisitioN: MeDliNe and eMBase were searched from January 2009 to october 2017. inclusion criteria were english language, pediatric populations (0-18 years) or mixed populations (pediatric/adult) with available age subgroup analyses. the guideline development process was started by the Promoting group that composed a multidisciplinary panel of experts, with the representatives of the Scientific Societies, the independent expert specialists and a representative of the Patient associations. the panel selected the clinical questions, discussed the evidence and formulated the text of the recommendations. the documentarists of the University of Florence oversaw the bibliographic research strategy. a group of literature reviewers evaluated the selected literature and compiled the table of evidence for each clinical question. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: The search strategies identified 4254 articles. We selected 3227 abstract (first screening) and, finally included 67 articles (second screening) to update the guideline. This Italian update includes 25 evidence-based recommendations and 5 research recommendations. coNclUsioNs: in recent years, progress has been made on the understanding of severe pediatric brain injury, as well as on that concerning all major traumatic pathology. this has led to a progressive improvement in the clinical outcome, although the quantity and quality of evidence remains particularly low.

Abstract

No robust evidence is provided by literature regarding the management of intracranial hypertension following severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). This is mostly due to the lack of prospective randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the presence of studies containing extreme heterogeneously collected populations and controversial considerations about chosen outcome. A scientific society should provide guidelines for care management and scientific support for those areas for which evidence-based medicine has not been identified. However, RCTs in severe TBI have failed to establish intervention effectiveness, arising the need to make greater use of tools such as Consensus Conferences between experts, which have the advantage of providing recommendations based on experience, on the analysis of updated literature data and on the direct comparison of different logistic realities. The Italian scientific societies should provide guidelines following the national laws ruling the best medical practice. However, many limitations do not allow the collection of data supporting high levels of evidence for intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring and decompressive craniectomy (DC) in patients with severe TBI. This intersociety document proposes best practice guidelines for this subsetting of patients to be adopted on a national Italian level, along with joint statements from “TBI Section” of the Italian Society of Neurosurgery (SINch) endorsed by the Neuroanesthesia and Neurocritical Care Study Group of the Italian Society of Anesthesia, Analgesia, Resuscitation and Intensive Care (SIAARTI). Presented here is a recap of recommendations on management of ICP and DC supported a high level of available evidence and rate of agreement expressed by the assemblies during the more recent consensus conferences, where members of both groups have had a role of active participants and supporters. The listed recommendations have been sent to a panel of experts consisting of the 107 members of the “T

Abstract

No robust evidence is provided by literature regarding the management of intracranial hypertension following severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). This is mostly due to the lack of prospective randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the presence of studies containing extreme heterogeneously collected populations and controversial considerations about chosen outcome. A scientific society should provide guidelines for care management and scientific support for those areas for which evidence-based medicine has not been identified. However, RCTs in severe TBI have failed to establish intervention effectiveness, arising the need to make greater use of tools such as Consensus Conferences between experts, which have the advantage of providing recommendations based on experience, on the analysis of updated literature data and on the direct comparison of different logistic realities. The Italian scientific societies should provide guidelines following the national laws ruling the best medical practice. However, many limitations do not allow the collection of data supporting high levels of evidence for intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring and decompressive craniectomy (DC) in patients with severe TBI. This intersociety document proposes best practice guidelines for this subsetting of patients to be adopted on a national Italian level, along with joint statements from “TBI Section” of the Italian Society of Neurosurgery (SINch) endorsed by the Neuroanesthesia and Neurocritical Care Study Group of the Italian Society of Anesthesia, Analgesia, Resuscitation and Intensive Care (SIAARTI). Presented here is a recap of recommendations on management of ICP and DC supported a high level of available evidence and rate of agreement expressed by the assemblies during the more recent consensus conferences, where members of both groups have had a role of active participants and supporters. The listed recommendations have been sent to a panel of experts consisting of the 107 members of the “T

Abstract

Background A comparison of clinical and radiological outcomes after two different variants of open door laminoplasty for cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is described. Methods Fifty-five patients underwent cervical laminoplasty for CSM. Between 2005 to 2009, 32 patients underwent open-door laminoplasty (Group A) performed with a monolateral exposure with contralateral "green stick" laminar fracture. A technical variant consisting in bilateral exposure, spinous process removal and symmetrical muscular closure was applied in the other 23 (Group B), from 2009 to 2016. A retrospective analysis of surgical results between the two groups was performed. Results In group B, the mean operative time was longer and the mean volume of intraoperative blood loss was much higher than in group A. Both differences were not significant (p=0.1601 and p=0.0884, respectively). The average hospitalization was nonsignificantly longer in group B (7.3±1.8 vs. 6.5±1.6 d; p= 0.0947). Postoperatively, axial neck pain was more severe in group A at last follow-up than preoperatively (P>0.05). mJOA scores and Nurick grades improved significantly in both groups at last follow-up; in group A, the mean recovery rates were 41.5 % by mJOA scores and 29.4 % by Nurick grades, whereas in group B they were 52.7 % and 36.8 %, respectively. Conclusions Applying some few variations to a standard monolateral approach, although slightly more time and blood consuming, could reduce the incidence of long term axial symptoms and, in our experience, are not burdened by worsening of outcomes. A prospective, multicentric study with a longer follow-up should be conducted in order to confirm our findings.

Abstract

Decompressive craniectomy (DC) may be necessary to save the lives of patients suffering from intracranial hypertension. However, this procedure is not complication-free. Its two main complications are hydrocephalus and the sinking skin-flap syndrome (SSFS). The radiological findings and the clinical evaluation may be not enough to decide when and/or how to treat hydrocephalus in a decompressed patient. SSFS and hydrocephalus may be not unrelated. In fact, a patient affected by hydrocephalus, after the ventriculo-peritoneal shunt, can develop SSFS; on the other hand, SSFS per se can cause hydrocephalus. Treating hydrocephalus in decompressed patients can be challenging. Radiological findings and clinical evaluation may not be enough to define the most appropriate therapeutic strategy. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics and metabolic evaluations can represent important diagnostic tools for assessing the need of a CSF shunt in patients with a poor baseline neurologic status. Based on our experience, we propose a flow chart for treating decompressed patients affected by ventriculomegaly.

Abstract

Background: Cranioplasty (CP) is supposed to improve the functional outcome of severe acquired brain injury (sABI) patients with decompressive craniectomy (DC). However, ongoing controversies exist regarding its indications, optimum materials, timing, complications, and relationships with hydrocephalus (HC). For these reasons, an International Consensus Conference (ICC) on CP in traumatic brain injury (TBI) was held in June 2018 to issue some recommendations., Aim: The aims of this study were: to investigate cross-sectionally before the ICC the prevalence of DC/CP in sABI inpatients admitted to neurorehabilitation units in Italy; to assess the perception of Italian clinicians working in the sABI neurorehabilitation settings on the management of inpatients with DC/CP during their rehabilitation stay., Design: Cross-sectional., Setting and Population: Physiatrists or neurologists working in 38 Italian rehabilitation centers involved in the care of sABI, giving a pooled sample of 599 inpatients., Methods: Survey questionnaire consisting of 21 closed-ended questions with multiple-choice answers. Sixteen questions regarded the respondents' opinions and experiences regarding the clinical and management aspects of patients. Survey data were collected via e-mail between April and May 2018., Results: About 1/3 of the 599 inpatients had either a DC (18.9%) or a CP (13.5%). TBI and cerebral hemorrhage were strongly associated with DC/CP, although the association was much stronger for TBI. Significant discrepancies were uncovered between some of the recommendations of the ICC and the corresponding perceptions of the respondents, especially regarding the clinical management of patients (i.e., CP timing). Clear guidelines were perceived as the most crucial factor in improving clinical pathways., Conclusions: Early collaboration between the neurosurgical and the neurorehabilitation teams is crucial to optimize all clinical and organizational factors, which could expedite CP and minimize the risk of complications, such as infections and HC, to ensure the best possible outcome for DC patients, regardless of the etiology of the sABI., Clinical Rehabilitation Impact: There may be different attitudes and perceptions, if not controversies, between neurorehabilitation physicians and neurosurgeons regarding the optimal clinical and care pathway management of patients with DC/CP in Italy. Therefore, an Italian Consensus Conference involving all stakeholders on the clinical and management pathways of DC/CP patients admitted to neurorehabilitation is advocated.
