Abstract
Neurosonological studies, specifically transcranial Doppler (TCD) and transcranial color-coded duplex (TCCD), have high level of specificity and sensitivity and they are used as complementary tests for the diagnosis of brain death (BD). A group of experts, from the Neurosonology Department of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology, created a task force to determine the criteria for the following aspects of diagnosing BD in Brazil: the reliability of TCD methodology; the reliability of TCCD methodology; neurosonology training and skills; the diagnosis of encephalic circulatory arrest; and exam documentation for BD. The results of this meeting are presented in the current paper. 70 5 373 380 Sloan, M.A., Alexandrov, A.V., Tegeler, C.H., Assessment: Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography: Report of the Therapeutics and Technology Assessment Subcommittee of the American Academy of Neurology (2004) Neurology, 62, pp. 1468-1481 Goodin, D.S., Edlund, W., (1999) Process for Developing Technology Assessments, pp. 1-35. , American Academy of Neurology Therapeutics and Technology Subcommittee Newell, D.W., Aaslid, R., (1992) Transcranial Doppler, pp. 145-151. , (Eds), New York: Raven Press Petty, G.W., Mohr, J.P., Pedley, T.A., The role of transcranial Doppler in confirming brain death: Sensitivity, specificity, and suggestions for performance and interpretation (1990) Neurology, 40, pp. 300-303 Hassler, W., Steinmetz, H., Pirschel, J., Transcranial doppler study of intracranial circulatory arrest (1989) J Neurosurg, 71, pp. 195-201 Zurynski, Y., Dorsch, N., Pearson, I., Smith, F., Woods, P., The use of transcranial doppler sonography in the diagnosis of brain death (1989) J Neurosurg Anesthesiol, 1, pp. 323-327 Ducrocq, X., Hassler, W., Moritake, K., Consensus opinion on diagnosis of cerebral circulatory arrest using doppler-sonography: Task force group on cerebral death of the neurosonology research group of the world federation of neurology (1998) J Neurol Sci, 159, pp. 145-150 Vicenzini, E., Pro, S., Randi, F., Transcranial Doppler for brain death after decompressive craniectomy: Persistence of cerebral blood flow with flat EEG (2010) Intensive Care Med, 36, pp. 2163-2164 Ahmann, P.A., Carrigan, T.A., Carlton, D., Wyly, B., Schwartz, J.F., Brain death in children: Characteristic common carotid arterial velocity patterns measured with pulsed Doppler ultrasound (1987) J Pediatr, 110, pp. 723-728 Vicenzini, E., Pulitano, P., Cicchetti, R., Transcranial doppler for brain death in infants: The role of the fontanelles (2010) Eur Neurol, 63, pp. 164-169 Poularas, J., Karakitsos, D., Kouraklis, G., Comparison between transcranial color Doppler ultrasonography and angiography in the confirmation of brain death (2006) Transplant Proc, 38, pp. 1213-1217 Soldatos, T., Karakitsos, D., Wachtel, M., The value of transcranial Doppler sonography with a transorbital approach in the confirmation of cerebral circulatory arrest (2010) Transplant Proc, 42, pp. 1502-1506 Schöning, M., Scheel, P., Holzer, M., Fretschner, R., Will, B.E., Volume measurement of cerebral blood flow: Assessment of cerebral circulatory arrest (2005) Transplantation, 80, pp. 326-331 Karakitsos, D., Poularas, J., Karabinis, A., Dimitriou, V., Cardozo, A., Labropoulos, N., Considerations for the utilization of transcranial Doppler sonography in the study of progression towards cerebral circulatory arrest (2011) Intensive Care Med, 37, pp. 368-370 Lekseel, L., Echo-encephalography: I.
