The temperature of the brain can reflect the activity of its different regions, allowing us to evaluate the connections between them. A study involving 111 patients in a vegetative state or minimally conscious state used microwave radiometry to measure their cortical temperature. The patients were divided into a main group receiving a 10-day selective craniocerebral hypothermia (SCCH) procedure, and a control group receiving basic therapy and rehabilitation. The main group showed a significant improvement in consciousness level as measured by CRS-R assessment on day 14 compared to the control group. Temperature heterogeneity increased in patients who received SCCH, while remaining stable in the control group. The use of microwave radiometry to assess rehabilitation effectiveness and the inclusion of SCCH in rehabilitation programs appears to be a promising approach.
大脑温度能够反映其不同区域的活动情况,使我们能够评估这些区域之间的联系。一项针对111名处于植物人状态或最低意识状态患者的研究,采用微波辐射测量法来测量他们的皮层温度。患者被分为接受为期10天选择性颅脑低温(SCCH)治疗的主要组,以及接受基础治疗和康复的对照组。与对照组相比,主要组在第14天通过CRS-R评估测量的意识水平有显著改善。接受SCCH治疗的患者温度异质性增加,而对照组则保持稳定。使用微波辐射测量法评估康复效果以及将SCCH纳入康复计划似乎是一种很有前景的方法。
