Overview

The authors discuss the possibility to affect inxracranial milieu by nitric oxide (NO) inhalation in brain injury complicated by ARDS. Following parameters esere evaluated: ICP, CPP, ICP/CPP index at stable conditions (MAP, PaOz, PaCOz, body temperature) according to the concenxration and duration of inhalaxion of NO. Based opon the stability of the parameters, we can conclude Chat NO inhalation in the aforementioned setting does not reegatively affect intracranial milieu.

Key words:
NO - nitric oxide - ICP - intracranial pressure - CPP - cerebral perfusion pressure - ICP/CPP - inxracranial hypertension - regression analysis
