BALANCE ASSESSMENT USING COMPUTERIZED STATIC POSTUROGRAPHY

A. Roceanu, G. Capris and Ovidiu Bajenaru

ABSTRACT

Equilibrum is a complex process. Combined visual, somatosensory and vestibular inputs are required in order to maintain the body balance. Any dysfunction in one of these channels may lead to vertigo and imbalance.

Computerized static posturography can be used to assess the contribution of these sensory channels in the patient’s balance, calculating each sensory coefficient (visual, somatosensory, vestibular).

Keywords: balance, computerized static posturography, visual, somatosensory, vestibular inputs

A PARKINSON’S DISEASE PATIENT TREATED WITH DEEP BRAIN STIMULATION, WITH IMPLANTATION AND REIMPLANTATION OF THE SYSTEM – AN 8 YEARS FOLLOW-UP

ABSTRACT

Deep brain stimulation is the most used neurosurgical procedure for advanced Parkinson’s disease. This procedure improves motor symptoms and some non-motor symptoms over a long period of time. In rare cases there are several complications which might lead to system removal. We report here a case were removal of the stimulation system was prompted by a scalp infection which extended to the subcutaneous fatty tissue and subcutaneous wire trajectories and did not resolved with antibiotics. The symptomatology worsened after device removal and reimplantation was decided. We followed this patient for 8 years after the first implant (6 years after the second implant) and he still has a good quality of live, being completely independent in most daily tasks.

Keywords: Parkinson disease, deep brain stimulation

CARDIAC COMPLICATIONS IN ACUTE STROKE

Ileana Raluca Nistor and Ovidiu Bajenaru

ABSTRACT

Heart and brain have many connections both in physiology and disease. Most of literature refers to brain complications of heart disease. In this review we examine the cardiac complications seen in acute stroke, which are rather frequent in clinical practice, and need attention from both neurologist and cardiologist.

Keywords: acute stroke, ECG, heart failure, myocardial ischemia

TAKING HISTORY FOR VERTIGO AND DIZZINESS – A PRACTICAL APPROACH

Adina Roceanu, Dafin F. Muresanu, Bogdan O. Popescu, Daniela Anghel, Madalina Georgescu, Sebastian Cozma, Luigi Marceanu, Silviu Albu and Ovidiu Bajenaru

ABSTRACT

Vertigo and dizziness are among the most frequent presenting symptoms, not only in neurology, but also in ENT and internal medicine clinics.

Vertigo is a spinning sensation or the feeling that the surroundings are spinning.

Floating sensation, lightheadiness, forward, backward – and sideward fall sensation, walking instability, gait hesitation or unsteadiness are other type of dizziness.

Several clinical pictures of different etiologies include vertigo and dizziness as underlying complaint. Diagnosis should be based on clinical history and neurotological evaluation.

A common perspective of neurologists, ENT doctors and general medicine physicians is needed for a better diagnosis and treatment of vertigo and dizziness patients.

Keywords: vertigo, dizziness

CURRENT THERAPIES IN EPISODIC MIGRAINE MANAGEMENT

Adina Roceanu and Ovidiu Bajenaru

ABSTRACT

Migraine is a common neurological disease characterized by severe, recurrent episodes of throbbing, unilateral, headache.

Non-pharmacologic migraine treatment refers to the patient behavioral modification in order to avoid trigger.

Current therapies in migraine attack treatment are non-specific drugs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, aspirin, antiemetics) and specific antimigraine drugs (ergot alkaloids, serotonin 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonists – triptans).

For migraine prophylaxis are recommended beta-blockers (metoprolol, propranolol), calcium channel blockers (flunarizine), antiepileptic drugs (valproic acid, topiramate), antidepressants (amitriptilyne, fluoxetine).

Keywords: migraine, ergot alkaloids, triptans, antiepileptic drugs
