Continuous multiparametric monitoring of brain activities following fluid-percussion injury in rats: preliminary results.
Abstract: Severe head injury can result in a high mortality rate or irreversible brain damage. One technique used to induce traumatic brain injury (TBI) is exposure of the brain to fluid percussion pressure while monitoring the increase in intracranial pressure (ICP)....
Transient radicular irritation followed by meningitis after spinal anesthesia.
Abstract: Neurotoxicity of spinally administered hyperbaric 5% lidocaine is becoming a serious concern in view of the recent literature. We report a case of probable neurotoxicity of hyperbaric 5% lidocaine, followed by an aseptic meningitis. This case report...
