Departments of Anesthesiology, Klinikum Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany
Crit Care Med 33:2367-72. 2005..Therefore, following severe subarachnoid hemorrhage, a PEEP-induced decrease of mean arterial pressure should be reversed to maintain cerebral perfusion...
Correlation of clinical outcome with pressure-, oxygen-, and flow-related indices of cerebrovascular reactivity in patients following aneurysmal SAHMartin Barth
Department of Neurosurgery, Medical Faculty Mannheim of the Karl Ruprecht University of Heidelberg, University Hospital Mannheim, Theodor Kutzer Ufer 1 3, 68167 Mannheim, Germany
Neurocrit Care 12:234-43. 2010..However, CR may be determined using different paradigms and it is unclear, which measurement method most suitable reflects the clinical course or is able to predict clinical deterioration...
