Labs and studies
Preop: CBC for baseline hemoglobin, CMP for electrolytes including sodium and potassium, INR given possible anticoagulants use
Intraop: Serial hemoglobin. Consider frequent Na checks if utilizing hypertonic saline, K checks if hyperventilating. TEG/coagulation studies as needed for resuscitation
Operating room setup
General anesthesia setup including fluid warmer/blood tubing, arterial line monitoring/setup, multiple infusion pumps, and consider ICP monitoring/drain as guided by neurosurgery.
Patient preparation and premedication
Regional and neuraxial techniques
Intraoperative management
Monitoring and access
Needs arterial line
Consider ICP monitoring as guided by neurosurgery
Induction and airway management
Avoid increased ICP during induction
Positioning
Maintenance and surgical considerations
ICP monitoring and possible reduction including:
- ICP draining
- Hyperventilation
- Steroids
- Antileptics
- Mannitol
- Hypertonic saline
- Head of bed position (as possible)
- Avoid using albumin due to increased mortality.
