CORRECTION OF NEUROLOGICAL DEFICIENCY IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE BY APPLICATION OF DIFFERENT QUALITATIVE COMPOSITION OF INFUSION SOLUTIONS

Abstract

Introduction: Infusion therapy is an important component in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The aim: Compare the dynamics of changes neurological deficiency in the application of solutions: 0.9% NaCl, HES 130, HAES-LX-5% and mannitol 15% in patients with AIS. Materials and methods: The study included 100 patients with AIS. As the investigated solutions were used: isosmolar 0.9% NaCl, hyperosmolar mannitol 15%, colloid-isoosmolar HES 130, colloid-hyperosmolar HAES-LX-5%. The control group received only 0.9% NaCl compared: 0.9% NaCl+HES 130, 0.9% NaCl+HAES-LX-5%, 0.9% NaCl+mannitol 15%. The evaluation of treatment efficacy (magnitude of neurological deficiency) was performed daily for 7 days using the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Full Outline of UnResponsiveness (FOUR) Score, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and BIS-index. Results: The conducted research showed that the application of 0.9% NaCl and mannitol did not have a significant effect on the dynamics of neurological deficits according to the GCS, FOUR and NIHSS scales for 7 days of observation (p>0.05). The use of HES 130 contributed to a statistically significant improvement in the parameters of the GCS (p<0,05), which is confirmed by significant changes in the BIS-index (p<0,05) during a seven-day infusion therapy. The most significant positive changes were observed in the group with HAES-LX-5%, which was marked by an improvement in the neurological state during 7 days treatment acoording to the GCS, FOUR and BIS index (p<0.05). Conclusions: The intergroup analysis of the neurological deficiency confirmed the worst result of treatment in the group with mannitol (p<0,05) and the best result with HAES-LX-5% (p<0,05).
