Transiluminacyjne monitorowanie stanu przestrzeni podpajęczynówkowej
PublicationTransiluminacja tkanek ludzkiego ciała w celach diagnostycznych jest stosowana od ponad stu lat. Metoda transiluminacji w bliskiej podczerwieni z rozpraszaniem zwrotnym (NIRT-BSS) umożliwia ciągłe, bezinwazyjne monitorowanie zmian szerokości przestrzeni podpajęczynówkowej, które może być cennym narzędziem w ocenie zagrożenia obrzękiem mózgu. W rozprawie przedstawiono optyczny model rozchodzenia się promieniowania podczerwonego...

Subarachnoid Space: New Tricks by an Old Dog
PublicationPurpose: The purpose of the study was to: (1) evaluate the subarachnoid space (SAS) width and pial artery pulsation in both hemispheres, and (2) directly compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to near-infrared transillumination/backscattering sounding (NIR-T/BSS) measurements of SAS width changes in healthy volunteers.Methods: The study was performed on three separate groups of volunteers, consisting in total of 62 subjects (33...

Increased inspiratory resistance alters the cardiac contribution to the dynamic relationship between blood pressure and pial artery pulsation oscillations in healthy subjects
PublicationThere is increasing evidence that heart performance directly influences cerebral perfusion. We hypothesised that increased inspiratory resistance will affect the cardiac contribution to the relationship between blood pressure and pial artery pulsation oscillations.

[PP.17.01] INCREASED INSPIRATORY RESISTANCE AFFECTS THE CARDIAC CONTRIBUTION TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BLOOD PRESSURE AND PIAL ARTERY PULSATION OSCILLATIONS
PublicationThere is increasing evidence that heart performance directly influences cerebral perfusion. We hypothesised that increased inspiratory resistance would affect the cardiac contribution to the relationship between blood pressure and pial artery pulsation oscillations.

Wavelet transform analysis to assess oscillations in pial artery pulsation at the human cardiac frequency
PublicationPial artery adjustments to changes in blood pressure (BP)may last only seconds in humans. Using a novelmethod called near-infrared transillumination backscattering sounding (NIR-T/BSS) that allows for the non-invasive measurement of pial artery pulsation (cc-TQ) in humans, we aimed to assess the relationship between spontaneous oscillations in BP and cc-TQ at frequencies between 0.5 Hz and 5 Hz. We hypothesized that analysis of...

Sympathetic Activation Does Not Affect the Cardiac and Respiratory Contribution to the Relationship between Blood Pressure and Pial Artery Pulsation Oscillations in Healthy Subjects
PublicationUsing a novel method called near-infrared transillumination backscattering sounding (NIR-T/BSS) that allows for the non-invasive measurement of pial artery pulsation (cc-TQ) and subarachnoid width (sas-TQ) in humans, we assessed the influence of sympathetic activation on the cardiac and respiratory contribution to blood pressure (BP) cc-TQ oscillations in healthy subjects. The pial artery and subarachnoid width response to handgrip...

Pial artery and subarachnoid width response to apnoea in normal humans
PublicationBackground: Little is known about intracranial pressure (ICP)-cerebral haemodynamic interplay during repetitive apnoea. A recently developed method based on near-infrared transillumination/backscattering sounding (NIR-T/BSS) noninvasively measures changes in pial artery pulsation (cc-TQ) as well as subarachnoid width (sas-TQ) in humans. Method: We tested the complex response of the pial artery and subarachnoid width to apnoea...

Effect of Maximal Apnoea Easy-Going and Struggle Phases on Subarachnoid Width and Pial Artery Pulsation in Elite Breath-Hold Divers
PublicationPurpose: The aim of the study was to assess changes in subarachnoid space width (sas-TQ), the marker of intracranial pressure (ICP), pial artery pulsation (cc-TQ) and cardiac contribution to blood pressure (BP), cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) and cc-TQ oscillations throughout the maximal breath hold in elite apnoea divers. Non-invasive assessment of sas-TQ and cc-TQ became possible due to recently developed method based on...

Effects of consecutive apneas on pial artery pulsation and subarachnoid width in healthy subjects
PublicationHypercapnia is known to dilate the pial artery, disrupt cerebral autoregulation and increase pial artery pulsation. The cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) response to hypercapnia is biphasic. Below the threshold for the increase of blood pressure (BP) with carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2), the CBFV measurement reflects vascular reactivity to pCO2 alone at a constant BP. Above this threshold, the CBFV measurement provides...

New method to monitor changes in the subarachnoid width and pial artery pulsation for physiological and clinical research
PublicationThere are several medical conditions associated with brain oedema such as traumatic brain injury, intoxication or tumors. Brain edema and related brain parenchyma expansion may lead to compression and subsequent injury of several brain structures. So far, the only method enabling detection and monitoring of the progress a cerebral oedema in a patient, has been monitoring of intracranial pressure (ICP) with a pressure probe inserted...

Acute hypoxia diminishes the relationship between blood pressure and subarachnoid space width oscillations at the human cardiac frequency
PublicationAcute hypoxia exerts strong effects on the cardiovascular system. Heart-generated pulsatile cerebrospinal fluid motion is recognised as a key factor ensuring brain homeostasis. We aimed to assess changes in heart-generated coupling between blood pressure and subarachnoid space width oscillations during hypoxic exposure.
