[The dynamics of the cerebral circulation during the treatment of schizophrenics with a depressive syndrome by means of the intravenous laser irradiation of the blood].

Ultrasound Doppler sonography of common carotid, internal carotid and vertebral arteries as well as head telethermography were carried out in schizophrenics with apathetic depression resistant to antidepressant therapy. These methods applied before and after intravenous laser treatment gave evidence for high efficacy of the laser treatment which improved blood flow and psychic condition of the patients.

[The hypertensive-hydrocephalic syndrome in the clinical picture of schizophrenia].

Combined clinical neurological study was performed in 111 schizophrenic patients with acute, subacute psychotic signs and at the end of psychosis. Techniques included echoencephalography, eye fundus study, spinal puncture. None of the patients had a history of craniocerebral trauma, neuroinfections, chronic alcoholism, severe somatic diseases. In 53.1% of the patients intracranial hypertension syndrome was detected with the highest rate in patients with acute psychotic signs. Besides, the hypertension syndrome was found to be related to the type of schizophrenia course: it was twice as frequent in attack forms as in permanent ones. The authors suggest that intracranial hypertension has a distinct role to play in the pathogenesis of acute schizophrenic attacks.

[Neurologic changes in schizophrenic patients].

A total of 104 schizophrenics have been examined using echoencephalography. Some patients presented manifestations of hydrocephalia and intracranial hypertension. The latter was predominantly observed in patients with acute psychotic states.

[Certain possibilities for ultrasonic methods in the evaluation of the status of the venous component of cerebral hemodynamics (clinico-experimental study)].

Results of clinical and experimental studies of the venous cerebral circulation using a set of non-invasive and economic ultrasonic methods (echo-encephalography, echo-pulsography, dopplerography and combined ultrasonic scanning of the neck) are presented. The studies were carried out both on humans and animals. As a total, 15 animals and 69 humans with signs of venous dyscirculation were examined. Data allowing one to judge about the side and degree of the disturbances of the venous cerebral hemodynamics were obtained.

[Feasibility of ultrasonic procedures in the diagnosis of brain death (clinico-experimental study)].

For estimating the vital capacity of the brain in critical situations use was made of a set of non-invasive, rapid, and economic diagnostic methods including echoencephalography, echo-pulsography of the ventricular system and the major arteries of the brain, the time motion method and dopplerography. Clinical and experimental studies were carried out on 15 animals and 70 patients who were in the state of cerebral or extracerebral coma of the IInd--IVth degree. Some parameters have been obtained which can be used as prognostic criteria for deciding on the desirability of continuing the resuscitation measures.

[Prevention and treatment of postoperative broncho-pulmonary complications with ultrasonic aerosols].

The method and results of applying ultrasonic aerosols in 485 patients, operated upon on abdominal organs, are presented. Ultrasonic aerosols were included in the complex of prophylactic and therapeutic measures in the postoperative period. Prophylactic measures were started immediately after patient's being returned from the operating room. Special attention was given to patients in whom ventilatory disturbances developed during anesthesia, to patients with obesity, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, pneumosclerosis and also those, who negated the rationality of prophylactic measures. The use of finely dispersed aerosols after the method suggested by the authors allowed a 6 times reduction in the incidence of pulmonary complications and more than twice shortening of the postoperative pneumonia course.
