In most circumstances the increased intracranial pressure and acute hydrocephalus caused by ICH is managed by placement of an external ventricular drain (EVD). We present a systematic …

2022年9月15日 · External ventricular drains (EVDs) are often placed, but there is little data on how much patients benefit from this intervention. We explored the use, timing, and location of …

2022年6月21日 · Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) refers to a primary or secondary non-traumatic hemorrhage. The term “hemorrhagic stroke” encompasses ICH, but also hemorrhagic …

2006年11月22日 · Insertion of an external ventricular drain (EVD) is a common and lifesaving procedure in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients with severe intraventricular hemorrhage …

2023年6月1日 · External ventricular drainage (EVD) is a key factor in the treatment of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) but associated with risks and complications. Intraventricular …

Management of the EVD in the setting of SAH, TBI, and ICH/IVH likely influences patient outcomes and length of stay. The optimal approach to EVD management, however, remains …

The use of EVD was associated with lower 30-day mortality in patients with ICH score of 4 (odds ratio = 0.09, P = 0.002), greater ICH volume (>11 cc, odds ratio = 0.47, P = 0.019), and lower …

2014年2月13日 · Patients with lower GCS, higher IVH severity, and lower ICH volume are more likely to have an EVD placed. EVD placement is associated with reduced mortality and …
