Lund Therapy - pathophysiology-based therapy or contrived over-interpretation of limited data?
- Authors
Andrews, Peter J. D.; Citerio, Giuseppe
- Abstract
The article relates the author's view on concepts of Lund Therapy. In this context, Lund Therapy and Brain Trauma Foundation guidelines were explained. It aims to reduce ischaemia- induced secondary injury by maintaining the delicate balance between cerebral perfusion and metabolic requirement. It has been emphasized that managing traumatic brain injury patients according to Brain Trauma Foundation guidelines does not eliminate ischaemic brain volume.
