The aim of this study was to assess the agreement between intraoperative transcranial sonography (TCS) and postoperative computed tomography (CT) in patients with traumatic brain injuries.
We performed a retrospective cross-sectional study of 35 patients who underwent TCS during surgery, among those who presented to a regional trauma center and underwent decompressive craniectomy between January 1, 2017 and April 30, 2020.
The mean difference between TCS and CT in measuring the midline shift was -1.33 mm (95% confidence interval, -2.00 to -0.65; intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC], 0.96; P<0.001). An excellent correlation was found between TCS and CT in assessing contralateral subdural hematomas (ICC, 0.96; P<0.001) and focal hematoma lesions (ICC, 0.99; P<0.001). A very good correlation between TCS and CT was found for measurements of ventricle width (ICC, 0.92; P<0.001).
TCS during surgery is considered an effective diagnostic tool for the detection of intraoperative parenchymal changes in patients with traumatic brain injuries.
本研究旨在评估创伤性脑损伤患者术中经颅超声检查(TCS)与术后计算机断层扫描(CT)之间的一致性。
我们对2017年1月1日至2020年4月30日期间在某地区创伤中心接受减压颅骨切除术且术中接受TCS检查的35例患者进行了回顾性横断面研究。
TCS与CT测量中线移位的平均差异为-1.33 mm(95%置信区间,-2.00至-0.65;组内相关系数[ICC],0.96;P<0.001)。在评估对侧硬膜下血肿(ICC,0.96;P<0.001)和局灶性血肿病变(ICC,0.99;P<0.001)方面,TCS与CT之间存在极好的相关性。在测量脑室宽度方面,TCS与CT之间存在非常好的相关性(ICC,0.92;P<0.001)。
术中TCS被认为是检测创伤性脑损伤患者术中实质变化的有效诊断工具。
