Implantation of a Licox Probe Resulting in Insertion & Rigid Fixation in Early Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Sargut Peter

The management of comatose patients with acute brain injury necessitates the use of continuous bedside oxygen monitoring of brain tissue. In order to avoid patients suffering from secondary ischemia, it has been established that maintaining adequate brain oxygenation is an essential objective in neurocritical care. Because subarachnoid hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury patients frequently require early magnetic resonance imaging, conventionally implanted metal bolts have major artifacts that are disadvantageous. The feasibility of a novel technique of bedside implantation of a Licox brain tissue oxygenation probe, resulting in a length-adjustable insertion and rigid fixation without metal artifacts in early magnetic resonance imaging, is presented in this paper. The implantation of a Licox brain tissue oxygenation probe with a peripheral venous cannula that is placed through a plastic bolt placed on a burr hole.
