MODERN PARAMETERS OF LABORATORY EXPRESS DIAGNOSTICS IN INTENSIVE NEUROLOGY AND NEUROSURGICAL PRACTICE IN PATIENTS WITH CRANIOCEREBRAL INJURIES

The parameters listed in the article show the huge path that laboratory express diagnosis of emergency conditions in neurology has taken over the past 50 years. And this is not the limit - new unique technologies appear. The range of measured and calculated parameters continues to expand, which makes it possible to more fully and adequately assess the condition of a critically ill patient. Thus, a timely and qualitative study of the gaseous composition of blood is important for carrying out differential diagnosis, prescribing adequate treatment and monitoring the therapy effectiveness. The aim of the study was to highlight the current parameters of laboratory rapid diagnostics in intensive neurology and neurosurgical practice in patients with traumatic brain injury. There are two situations that necessitate the development of rapid methods for monitoring hemostasis in the neurological intensive care unit and neurosurgical operating room: the need to immediately determine the concentration or biological effect of anticoagulants. Some areas of surgical intervention are associated with increased blood loss due to coagulopathy, which requires timely replacement therapy. A long process of determining hemostatic parameters by routine methods in a general laboratory leads to a delay in diagnosis and, as a result, untimely treatment. Quite a few express methods designed to obtain specific information about the hemostasis process are currently available in the operating room. If these monitoring methods are used correctly, the research results are reliable, so some researchers use them to develop algorithms for determining the need for transfusion of blood components. However, the development of new monitoring methods requires close collaboration with scientists specialized in hemostasis, plus quality control must be established. It is necessary to prove the positive effect of rapid diagnostic methods on the result to ensure the possibility of their wide application in various operations.
