摘要

Declaration of brain death follows a certain set of examinations. Most common confirmatory tests are the EEG, transcranial Doppler sonosgraphy or cerebral angiography. This case report describes special dynamic features of near infrared spectrocopic (NIRS) parameters in a 46-year-old intensive care patient after severe head injury. Introduction Brain death is declared when brainstem reflexes, motor responses, and respiratory drive are absent in a normothermic, nondrugged comatose patient with a known irreversible massive brain lesion and no contributing metabolic derangements [1,2]. There is fairly uniform agreement regarding the criteria for the clinical evaluation of brain death, although there is considerable variation in the use of additional physiologic tests. In Europe 11 of 25 guidelines require a confirmatory test for the diagnosis [1].Due to its noninvasive nature and the portability of the equipment, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has gained widespread recognition as a technique for monitoring oxygenation of brain tissue in infants and adults [3]. In the present case report we describe special dynamic features of NIRS-parameters in a 46-year-old intensive care patient after severe head injury. Materials and Methods SubjectOne patient (46 years, male) from the intensive care unit after severe head injury was investigated in the preterminal phase using different neuromonitoring equipment (NIRS, ultrasound Doppler sonography) [4]. Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS)One of the most important NIRS-device from the clinical point of view was first described in 1977 by F.F. J?bsis in the U.S. [5]. Ten years passed since a near infrared oxygenation monitor (NIRO monitor) was launched in Japan. Since then, a number of improvements in NIRO monitors were implemented. The system we used contains 4 laser diodes for measuring wavelengths of 775, 825, 850 and 904 nm. With a temporal resolution of 0.5 sec the near infrared spectroscope (NIRO 300; Hamamatsu Photonics, Hamamatsu, Japan) reflects cerebral changes in oxygenated (ΔO2Hb) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (ΔHHb), total hemoglobin (ΔcHb = ΔO2Hb + ΔHHb) and oxidated cytochrome c oxidase aa3 (ΔCtOx) in μmol, calculated with Lambert-Beer's Principle [3].In order to measure tissue oxygenation index (TOI = O2Hb/cHb) values, a special probe has been developed. An emission probe made of fiber optics irradiates laser beams, and a detection probe which is placed several centimeters from the emission probe detects faint light that has passed through tissues. The detection probe has a light sensor (photodiode) consisting of three small sensors. The TOI values are calculated from the slope of light attenuation along the distance from the emitting point [6]. Transcranial Doppler SonographyCerebral blood flow profiles were measured using a Multi-Dop T device (DWL Electronic Systems, USA). A bilateral and multidirectional TCD monitoring arrangement to simultaneously and continuously monitor blood flow velocities in different extra- and intracranial arteries has been developed [7]. Results Case ReportAfter severe head injury and admission to the intensive care unit, the clinical status deteriorated and the patient developed the clinical criteria of brain death. The patient showed complete areflexia of the cranial nerves and no signs of integrated spinal motor function. Clinical EEG was diagnosed as isoelectric and no components of brainstem auditory evoked potentials could be recorded. TCD showed residual perfusion in the right and left middle cerebral arteries. In addition residual blood flow profiles in the right supratrochlear artery were found. However, in the left posterior cerebral artery a systolic spike pattern was observed (compare Fig. 1 and [4]).
