Investigating the Influence of Therapeutic Hypothermia on Stroke-Induced Intracranial Pressure in a Rat Model of Intracerebral Hemorrhage
DownloadSpring 2016
Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) is a potentially life threatening complication after intracerebral hemorrhagic stroke (ICH). Animal and clinical studies suggest that mild (~33ºC) therapeutic hypothermia (TH) reduces ICP after ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Since TH has...
