新生児，乳児期水頭症の頭蓋内圧環境と脳灌流圧の臨界域

The Critical Threshould of Cerebral Perfusion Pressure in Intracranial Pressure Circumstance of Hydrocephalus during Infancy

I．はじめに

　新生児，乳児期の頭蓋内圧環境には不詳な点が少なくない．近年，水頭症病態における脳循環動態の重要性が指摘されているが^23），新生児，乳児期における知見は乏しい．新生児，乳児期の水頭症の頭蓋内圧環境を脳循環動態の因子を加えて定性および定量的に分析し，この時期の水頭症の圧環境を検討した．

In cases of brain insults in infants including those who are superimposed with increased intracranial pressure, the importance of management of cerebral hemodynamics has been stressed. As yet, minimal in-formation is available on hydrocephalus. The aim of this clinical study is to clarify the circumstance of in-tracranial pressure in hydrocephalic infants with cere-brovascular compromise.
