Electroencephalography in the Management of Neuroelectric Stimulation in Patients With Severe Traumatic Brain Injuries
The goal of this observational retrospective study is to evaluate the electroencephalography (EEG)'s poficiency in the treatment of neuroelectric stimulation in patients with severe traumatic brain injuries (TBI). The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether EEG of patients with severe TBI will change after they receiving neuroelectrial stimulation? …
Mechanical Ventilation on Hippocampus
Ventilator-associated brain injury (VABI) frequently occurs in ICU patients. Although animal studies indicate the hippocampus as a key target of VABI, its relevance in human patients remains uncertain. In this study, the investigators aim to monitor hippocampal EEG activity during the weaning process of patients off mechanical ventilation, and also …
Improving the Diagnostic Accuracy of Children with DoC (IDeAl DesiRE)
The present study aims to investigate the clinical evolution of children with severe ABI and DoC both by using the traditional behavioral scales, namely the CRS-R, CRS-P and CNCS, and by trying to establish whether it is possible to identify any clinical markers of Emergency (E-Markers). E-Markers are behaviors that …
Correlation Between Noninvasive Blood Vessel Functionality Parameters and Cerebral Hemodynamics in Neurocritical Care Patients
The purpose of this clinical research project is to employ Mespere LifeSciences NeurOs Cerebral Oximetry system, equipped with noninvasive sensors approved by the FDA, to monitor and investigate the correlation within a cohort of patients suffering from traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, brain tumor, and brain bleeding. This study aims …
Evaluation of Patients Affected by Traumatic and Hypoxic-ischemic Brain Injury
According to the World Health Organization, perinatal asphyxia is the leading cause of severe neurological disabilities and the second leading cause of neonatal death among term infants, with an incidence of 3.94-5.12 per 1,000 live births. Perinatal asphyxia leads to neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, which remains a common cause of neonatal …
Pragmatic Abilities in Children With Acquired Brain Injury
Although neuroplasticity of the brain is high in childhood, some neuropsychological sequelae could persist over the long term in children with Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). Many children with TBI, show deficits in pragmatic abilities that usually persist. Pragmatic difficulties have been observed also in children with sequelae of brain neoplasms …
Evaluation of Macroscopic Muscle Growth in Infants and Young Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy
A mixed longitudinal design study will be carried out to explore the onset and time course of morphological muscle changes on a macroscopic level in children with spastic cerebral palsy (SCP). Therefore, this project aims to (1) describe the macroscopic morphological muscle changes with increasing age and (2) evaluate the …
Verify the Performance in Clinical Practice of the Immersive Virtual Reality Platform GRAIL (Gait Real-time Analysis Interactive Lab)
Gait pattern difficulties, balance and coordination deficits often characterize patients with congenital and acquired neuromotor disorders and have a significant impact on the quality of life of these subjects. There are various treatments used and in recent years, the advent of advanced technologies in rehabilitation and, in particular, devices based …
Validity and Reliability Study of the Pain Indicator Behavior Scale-Brain Damage (ESCID-DC)
A multicentre observational study to validate the adaptation of the Pain Indicator Behavior Scale (ESCID) for patients with acquired Brain Damage (ESCID-DC), as a measuring instrument.
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Beta-lactams and Renal Hyperclearance in Patients Admitted to Intensive Care for Acute Brain Injury
Augmented Renal Clearance (ARC), defined as a supraphysiological increase in renal function, is frequently observed in critically ill patients, particularly those with acute brain injury. ARC complicates the management of renally eliminated drugs, specifically beta-lactam antibiotics, by enhancing drug clearance and thereby increasing the risk of underdosing and therapeutic failure. …
