Intracranial pressure changes in patients with head trauma during haemodialysis

Abstract: Intracranial hypertension and acute renal failure are frequent complications in polytraumatized patients with head trauma. This paper deals with the evolution of intracranial pressure during haemodialysis in two cases of traumatic coma. Significant changes in intracranial pressure were noted. Increase of intracranial pressure during haemodialysis was 7.6 mmHg for the first patient and 4.6 mmHg for the second patient. Prophylactic measures are discussed.

“…Increased ICP is frequently seen shortly after initiation of HD and prior to significant changes in serum osmolality or pH. These early changes are frequently preceded or accompanied by hypotension, decreasing CPP, and cerebral blood flow (CBF) [6]. This may lead to cerebrovascular vasodilatation and increased ICP.…”

“…Conventional IHD has been shown to exacerbate cerebral edema, increase intracranial pressure (ICP), and is associated with more hypotensive episodes and arrhythmias than CRRT [3][4][5][6]. In theory, CRRT may be beneficial in patients with intracranial hypertension (IH) due to its ability to adjust intravascular volume, remove water, solutes, and inflammatory mediators [7,8].…”

“…The use of a modified dialysate sodium concentration has been previously reported for the management of dysnatremias. 30,31 These changes may occur within the first hour of treatment, before any major changes in plasma osmolality have occurred. This approach has three major drawbacks: significant financial cost of CVVH compared to the much less expensive ol-CVVHD-RCA, an additional workload imposed on the pharmacy personnel who perform the mixing, and the risk of contamination and errors during the injection of HS into the fluid bags.…”

“…There was a similar degree of P bt O 2 responsiveness to CPP compared to while on HD ( figure 1D). In addition, ORx was [2][3][4][5] Though the exact mechanism remains unclear, several theories, including the reverse urea effect, increase in idiogenic osmolar products, or a paradoxical intracellular acidosis, exist. [2][3][4] Our case shows a close relationship between initiation of HD and surges of ICP together with a decline in P bt O 2 .…”
