aSAH: Dilating the Dogma of Vasospasm
February 25, 2024 23:00 - 31 minutes - 32.7 MBAngiographic vasospasm and more accurately, delayed cerebral ischemia, continue to contribute to morbidity and mortality in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). It is known that angiographic vasospasm is common after SAH, occurring in two-thirds of patients. This presentation was delivered by Rob Loch MacDonald at CODA2022. Want more content about aSAH?

This open and honest account gives us all inval...
Brain Tissue Oxygen Monitoring - The Bonanza Trial (It’s Not What You’ve Got It’s What You Do With It)
January 30, 2024 05:31 - 25 minutes - 27.8 MBAndrew Udy talks about the ongoing BONANZA Trial which is assessing whether an algorithm that incorporates both ICP and brain tissue oxygen (PbTO2) can improve outcomes after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Like with all monitoring, how the PbTO2 is interpreted and managed is critical and the devil is in the detail!

Ketamine for Brain Injury
January 24, 2024 22:24 - 36 minutes - 23.4 MBHistorically, when it came to brain injury, ketamine had a bad rap. Much of that dogma was dispelled in the last 20 years, and ketamine is now frequently used as an induction agent in acute brain injury, especially traumatic brain injury, partially due to the favorable effects on haemodynamics. However a new application of ketamine is now being explored - whether ketamine may be able to reduce secondary brain injury. In this talk Toby Jeffcote initially takes us through all the sedative...
Cortical Spreading Depolarisation in Neurological Disease - An Introduction
January 21, 2024 23:25 - 25 minutes - 28.1 MBCortical spreading depolarization (CSD) is a spreading loss of ion homeostasis, altered vascular response, change in synaptic architecture, and subsequent depression in electrical activity following an inciting neurological injury. This presentation was delivered by Toby Jeffcote at CODA2022. Want more content about CSD? Visit neuroresus.com or subscribe to be notified of new podcast releases via email.

There is no such thing as mild, moderate and severe TBI
December 18, 2023 00:15 - 22 minutes - 19.6 MBAndrew Chow vs Andrew Udy This debate was set up to discuss the issues with categorising traumatic brain injury (TBI). The current system using GCS to divide patients into mild, moderate and severe has been criticised in recent times, with calls for a more nuanced approach. The debate was a just bit of fun but does highlight the key issues. Chowie didn’t get to choose which side to argue for :) Andrew Chow, Intensivist with a neurosurgical background, argues that the current categorisat...

Neuro Rehab: What Does Severe Disability Mean?
October 30, 2023 05:26 - 22 minutes - 14.2 MBStuart Browne is a Neuro Rehab specialist from Sydney. He discusses what "severe disability" really means. Severe disability is more common than many realise - about 6% of the Australian population. Stuart discusses how health is more than simply physical recovery and how it is a multidimensional construct. He covers how permanent disability doesn't necessarily equate to a poor quality of life. He also discusses the long timespan of recovery, which is often much longer than appreciated....
Paediatric Stroke
October 18, 2023 22:30 - 22 minutes - 20.6 MBShree Basu is a Paediatric Intensivist in Sydney. She discusses how Paediatric stroke presents, what neuroimaging is required and what interventions are available, including thrombolysis and the role of endovascular thrombectomy. The blood pressure targets in ICU are discussed; while there isn’t strong evidence to support these targets, it does make sense and is a separate hot topic in adult strokes, especially post ECR! This podcast was recorded at the Brain Symposium which took place i...
Hypertensing SCI - Gold standard or whacky?
October 11, 2023 03:31 - 14 minutes - 32.2 MBAfter spinal cord injury (SCI), there aren’t many interventions we have available that actually make a difference. Augmenting blood pressure to increase spinal cord perfusion pressure is an attractive concept that may improve neurological outcomes following SCI. We know that hypotension can make SCI worse. Clinical studies looking at blood pressure augmentation are mostly old, retrospective and flawed in various ways. Aiming for a MAP of > 85 for 5-7 days is recommended by guidelines b...
Managing Complications of Chronic SCI
October 08, 2023 00:15 - 29 minutes - 27.8 MB20 million people around the world are living with a spinal cord injury (SCI). The medical issues they develop over the years differ to any other patient cohort.
