Foreword

The care of critically ill patients with neurological diseases is challenging, and often involves compromises to select a least-worst rather than a best option. This is particularly true in the case of neuromonitoring. Clinical mon­itoring of brain function in our patients is often confounded by sedative drugs, and we have to rely to a greater extent on neuroimaging and bedside monitor­ing devices.
Imaging essentially provide snapshots of disease, rather than representing an approach to ongoing patient monitoring. As a consequence, many neuro­ICUs have had to primarily rely on multimodality physiological monitoring (intracranial pressure monitoring, often combined with brain oximetry and cerebral microdialysis) to understand evolving pathophysiology, select appropriate therapies, and assess their impact. However, the risks involved make their use inappropriate in patients with less severe disease, in the pre­hospital phase, when patients are being screened before ICU admission, and after patients have left the ICU.Finally, substantial cost of disposable equip­ment limits their use in resource-limited contexts. There is a clear need for noninvasive monitoring with limited consumable costs, which can be used through the entire disease narrative.
While neurophysiological monitoring does full some of these require­ments, it tends to be cumbersome to initiate and often requires specialist expertise for interpretation. Further, while it can detect seizures and may aid in the titration of sedative, it does not provide information about many of the physiological parameters we can inuence with ICU interventions.
The case for ultrasound-based investigation of cerebral and cerebrovascu­lar physiology is compelling. These techniques provide key data in several areas where we have potential therapies, including intracranial pressure, cra­nial compliance, cerebral blood ow, cerebral autoregulation, and vasospasm. The noninvasive nature of the technique allows extension of its application from the prehospital phase to late follow-up, and also to extracranial diseases where secondary neurological compromise is suspected. Finally, the negligi­ble consumable costs facilitate use in resource-limited environments.
Given these clear benets of ultrasound-based diagnosis and monitoring, this book, edited by Dr. Robba and Professor Citerio, is a welcome contribu­tion. Written by experienced clinicians who have wide knowledge of the lit­erature and use these techniques regularly, the chapters cover all aspects of brain ultrasound and echography—including anatomy and physiology, meth­odology, clinical evidence, and practical application and interpretation. The

information that it provides will support the use of ultrasound in both clinical care and research—either on its own or as a complement to neuroimaging, invasive monitoring, and neurophysiology.
Ultrasound-based diagnosis and monitoring of brain dysfunction have a growing role in the care of patients with brain dysfunction and disease—and this book will contribute to that growth.

Foreword

Foreword

“Learning never exhausts the mind”—Leonardo da Vinci
For decades, clinicians have attempted to use monitoring techniques to try to understand the pathophysiology of brain disease. In the early 1980s, Aaslid and colleagues rst demonstrated that cerebral arterial ow velocities could be measured by pulsed Doppler ultrasound, heralding a new era of noninva­sive monitoring of cerebral hemodynamics.
As technology continued to evolve over recent years, a variety of invasive and noninvasive monitors were developed which introduced the concept of multimodal neuromonitoring. Whilst this has been supplemented by complex imaging methodologies, giving us increasingly detailed information about brain pathophysiology, the principle of bedside monitoring remains the ulti­mate goal of neuroscientists around the world.
The use of ultrasound moves a long way in achieving this goal, and its application for the brain and other organ systems continues to expand. Whilst clinicians continue to push the boundaries of the use of ultrasound, dissemi­nation of their expertise to the next generation of scientists and clinicians is a responsibility that must not be ignored.
This book, co-edited by leaders in the eld of neurosciences and neuro­monitoring, establishes a rm foundation to promote knowledge and under­standing in this area of neurosciences. It is an excellent educational asset for those interested in the use of ultrasound and Doppler as applied to brain pathophysiology and clinical management of neurological disease. As well as covering a breadth of conditions, readers will nd the link to pathology and clinical applications in each section both stimulating and informative. Although the basic technique of ultrasound is not complex, this book will allow readers to rene their understanding of the technique, its application, and interpretation of information that the technique gives them. As with any skill however, continued practice is essential!
I look forward in the coming years that I will see more clinicians using the technique of ultrasound in the management of complex neurological condi­tions as a result of the learning from this unique book.
I wish you enjoyable and informative reading!
