[First experience of using adaptive support ventilation (ASV) mode in patients with severe traumatic brain injury].
Capabilities and limitations of ASV mode in TBI patients are studied. 12 patients with severe TBI were enrolled in the study. ICP, MAP, CPP were monitored in all the patients. Cerebral regional blood flow was monitored by thermal diffusion in four patients. ⋯ In one patient hyperventilation was caused by lung mechanics disorder when ventilator tried to achieve target minute volume by low tidal volume and high respiratory rate. ASV mode provides adequate lung ventilation during respiratory support period in most patients with severe TBI. It can prove ineffective for some patients with brainstem irritation or lung mechanics disorders.

[Using ASV mode for respiratory support withdrawal in patients after posterior fossa surgery].
The study gives data on how to improve the way from mechanical to spontaneous breathing in patients with weakened respiratory drive after posterior fossa tumor removal. We compared the effectiveness of two methods of weaning from mechanical ventilation in these patients. The main group consisted of 6 patients weaned from ventilator with ASV mode. ⋯ Plmax index (respiratory effort index) measured once a day increased as well. Weakened respiratory drive is accompanied by P0,1 and Plmax indexes' decrease in patients after posterior fossa tumor removal. ASV mode in these patients allows quicker weaning from mechanical ventilation.

[Sepsis in patients with intracranial hemorrhage: incidence and influence on outcome].
The aim of the study is to analyze sepsis and septic shock incidence and their influence on the outcome in critically ill patients with intracranial hemorrhage. Sepsis incidence (33,7%) and septic shock incidence (18,6%) in the patients studied did not depend on intracranial hemorrhage etiology. ⋯ Sepsis and septic shock risk factors are defined. The problem of sepsis and septic shock diagnosis in critically ill patients with intracranial hemorrhage are highlighted.

[Intracranial pressure and jugular venous oxygenation influence on outcome in patients with severe traumatic brain injury].
Different criteria are used to predict outcome of TBI including jugular venous oxygenation (SjvO2) and ICP. However, there is no data on their combined use. ICP measure by ophtalmodynamometry (ODM) of central retinal vein (CR V) never was used for outcome prediction. ⋯ The main risks for them are extracerebral complications. It is necessary to use complex monitoring that includes ICP and SjvO2 for accurate prediction of the outcome of TBI. ICP should be measured by minimally invasive method.
