Temporal lobe resections Extratemporal lobe resections Lesionectomies Corpus callosum sections Selective amygdalo-hippocampectomies Multiple subpial transections Multiple hippocampal transections Hemispherectomies Vagal nerve stimulations Stereo-Electroencephalography (seeg) Minimally invasive and nonsurgical solutions: Precise, noninvasive localization of epileptic foci by sourceimaging the electric or magnetic signal directly on the patient s MRI Specialized MRI epilepsy-specific imaging protocols using 4 Tesla MRI, which can detect formerly hidden lesions Conditions treated: The epileptologists at UH specialize in all types of epilepsy, including: Adult epilepsy Developmentally delayed epilepsy Geriatric epilepsy Intractable epilepsy New onset epilepsy Pediatric epilepsy Women s epilepsy Innovations: Cortical stimulation identifies brain areas involved with specific cognitive functions like reading, writing and mathematical calculations, recognition of faces, etc. Cortico-cortical evoked potentials uncover brain to brain connections Advanced computer programs permit automatic recognition of the interictal and ictal epileptiform activity Multiple hippocampal transections reduce seizure activity while preserving memory functions Current clinical trials: UH researchers are pioneering advances in the understanding of and causes of seizures through participation in various clinical and surgical studies including: A Double-Blind, Randomized Conversion to Monotherapy Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Brivaracetam in Subjects With Partial Onset Seizures. Only a limited number of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are approved for use as monotherapy. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Brivaracetam when changing treatment for patients with partial onset seizures from combination treatment to monotherapy. Visual Field Assessment With Subjects Who Receive Either Lyrica Or Sugar Pills. Patients with partial seizures will take either Lyrica 300 mg per day or placebo in addition to their current medication. Visual field tests will be done at the beginning of the study, before Lyrica or placebo is added and at the end of the study. By the end of the treatment the person s visual field test results will be compared to the tests collected at the beginning, prior to taking the study drug, to see if there are any changes. Efficacy And Safety Study Of Pregabalin (Lyrica) As Monotherapy In Patients With Partial Seizures. This study will determine the safety and efficacy of pregabalin (Lyrica) when administered by itself (without any other anti-epileptic medication) to epilepsy patients for the treatment of partial seizures. Advances in presurgical diagnostic techniques, including brain-mapping, now offer surgical options to a significantly larger percentage of epileptic patients with medically intractable seizures. Programs: Epilepsy Monitoring Units (EMU): Provides separate units for both adult and pediatric patients where antiepileptic medications are reduced or removed and seizures are recorded with video/eeg to more precisely diagnose the type of epilepsy a patient has. Monitoring is also used to precisely localize the epileptogenic focus in patients who are candidates for epilepsy surgery. The UH Electroneurodiagnostics (END) Lab: Provides comprehensive testing of the electrical activity of the brain and nervous systems. The lab is equipped with electroencephalogram (EEG), continuous video EEG monitoring and evoked potentials. We also offer technology used for monitoring EEG or evoked potentials during surgery for brain or spinal cord tumor, trauma, aneurysm, vascular malformations or blockage, congenital abnormalities, spinal cord malformations, epilepsy surgery and movement disorders. Epilepsy Center at UH Rainbow Babies & Children s Hospital: This Level IV center is a key component of the Division of Pediatric Epilepsy that provides comprehensive, integrated and state-of-the-art patient care to children with epilepsy across all age groups. With access to a vast number of specialists and surgeons as well as the dedicated Epilepsy Monitoring Unit and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit the center offers the most advanced approaches to diagnosing, managing and treating epilepsy in infants and children. Intra-operative monitoring (IOM): Provides comprehensive monitoring of evoked potentials and other neurophysiologic parameters during surgery to immediately identify changes in brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerve function prior to irreversible damage. IOM also is effective in localizing anatomical structures, including peripheral nerves and sensorimotor cortex, which helps guide the surgeon during dissection. Hans O.

Minimally invasive approaches and robotic technology enable surgeons to treat a wide range of conditions without having to cut through skull, face or back to reach the target. These methods spare sensitive tissue, minimize the risk of disabilities or disfigurement and significantly decrease recovery periods. Personalized treatment plans are developed by a multidisciplinary team of neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists, ophthalmologists, radiologists and plastic surgeons. Minimally invasive and nonsurgical solutions: Neuroendovascular surgery (also called interventional neuroradiology) is a subspecialty within the fields of radiology and neurosurgery that manages and treats complex neurologic lesions using minimally invasive techniques. Interventionists treat lesions from within rather than from outside, by delicately threading small catheters through veins and arteries. Treatments include: Endovascular aneurysm repair Angioplasty/pharmacological vasodilation for subarachnoid hemorrhage vasospasm Mechanical/pharmacological revascularization for acute stroke Angioplasty/stenting for intracranial and extracranial atherosclerotic disease Endovascular repair of post traumatic and neoplastic-related vascular injuries Minimally Invasive Spine Treatments enable spinal neurosurgeons to diagnose and treat all spinal disorders, including cervical spinal stenosis, lateral femoral cutaneous nerve syndrome, scoliosis, spinal cord injury and tethered cord syndrome. Treatments include: Extreme Lateral Interbody Fusion (XLIF) Posterior (keyhole) cervical forminotomy or microdiscectomy Removal of synovial cyst and certain spinal or paraspinal tumors Percutaneous lumbar facet screws Posterior spinal instrumentation (pedicle screws and rods) Presacral Transsacral L5-S1 Interbody Fusion (AxiaLIF) Thoracoscopic discectomy (with or without fusion) Transforminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) X-sopt implantation ( titanium bullet ) Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery Christopher Bailey, PhD Office Phone: 216-844-3422 Special Interests: Adult/Geriatric Neuropsychology, Alzheimer s Disease, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD), Concussion, Dementia, Disability/Legal, Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery, Epilepsy and Epilepsy Surgery, Forensic Neuropsychology, Hydrocephalus, Memory Loss, Mild Cognitive Impairment, Neuropsychological Independent Medical Exam, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) UH Richmond Medical Center, UH Westlake Health Center Brian Dyko, NP Office Phone: 216-844-3495 Appointment Phone: 216-844-3192 Special Interests: General Neurology, Headache, Memory & Cognition, Neuromuscular Sees patients at: UH Case Medical Center,, UH Foley Elderhealth Center Steven A.

Using a precise dosage of radiation, radiotherapy can be used to treat intracranial and extracranial tumors and lesions that would otherwise be inaccessible with open surgery. Treatments include: Gamma Knife: Uses 201 narrow beams of cobalt gamma radiation, all precisely focused on a single tumor or blood vessel abnormality. The tissue being treated receives the highest does of radiation, while surrounding healthy tissue is spared. The Gamma Knife procedure is generally performed on an outpatient basis with local anesthesia. CyberKnife : Is the only radiosurgery system that delivers high-dose, nonisocentric beams to the tumor from virtually unlimited positions, enabling physicians to aggressively treat tumors with submillimeter accuracy while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This painless, noninvasive technology gives patients new hope for treatment of tumors and lesions that were previously diagnosed as untreatable or inoperable. Neuroendoscopic surgery allows surgeons to access and treat most areas of the brain and spine by navigating endoscopes and miniature instruments through the nasal passages or tiny incisions. Neuroendoscopic surgery minimizes scars and disfigurement, side effects, complications and recovery times. Treatments include: Brain tumors and cysts Craniosynostosis Hydrocephalus Pituitary tumors Spinal surgery Minimally invasive neurosurgery makes surgery far safer and less traumatic through the use of miniature computers and image guidance endoscopes. 16 Access the library of innovative publications and earn free CME at UHhospitals.org/neuro/publications.

Surgical solutions: Functional and Restorative Neurosurgery: State-of-theart Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery, as well as comprehensive preoperative and postoperative care for patients undergoing DBS. Careful, fine-tuned programming of DBS stimulators, balanced with medical management, is provided on an ongoing basis. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Program: Manages tremors, movement and walking problems via surgical implantation of electrodes in the brain and pulse generators in the upper chest just beneath the collarbones. Minimally invasive and nonsurgical solutions: Botulinum Toxin Therapy: Used to treat movement disorders, spasticity, drooling, migraine and other indications Conditions treated: Parkinson s disease Essential tremor Dystonia Innovations: First in North America to perform DBS of the thalamus to treat symptoms of Tourette syndrome successfully. The first group worldwide to complete a prospective randomized double blinded trial of thalamic DBS for Tourette syndrome in a pilot clinical trial of five patients. Greatest experience in Ohio with botulinum toxin injections, and uses the procedure for the broadest range of neurological indications. One of only 25 centers nationwide offering surgical therapy for dystonia. We use DBS to treat patients with dystonia, Parkinson s disease and essential tremor. DBS has been demonstrated to relieve tremors and other motor dysfunctions such as rigidity, bradykinesia, dyskinesia, and gait and balance problems. Current clinical studies: Establishment of a CTSC Parkinson s Disease Phenotypic and Genotypic Registry. The purpose of this research study is to establish a registry of people with Parkinson s Disease (PD) to examine the effects of genes on PD. Investigators will compare disease features in people with certain gene mutations associated with PD but without those mutations, attempting to identify any distinctive characteristics. Investigators will also try to determine how the mutations contribute to the damage done to nerve cells in PD. Assessment of Objective Measures of Motor Impairment in the On and Off Motor States of Parkinson s Disease. The purpose of this study is to test a new computer-based device called Quantitative Motor Assessment Tool (QMAT) in people diagnosed with Parkinson s disease (PD) to measure various tasks reflecting motor performance and compare the results to the Unified Parkinson s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). Assessment of Objective Measures of Motor Impairment In Parkinson s Disease: Evaluation of a Computer-Based Test Battery. This study tests the same new computer-based device as the previous study, the Quantitative Motor Assessment Tool (QMAT). This project involves the measurement of performance of PD subjects at random times, and represents a simpler version of the previous study. Genetic and Environmental Risk Factors for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP): The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the genetic and environmental risk factors associated with the development of PSP. Participating subjects supply information about possible exposure histories by reviewing where they have lived, the diets they have consumed, and the jobs they have held, among other data. Subjects also furnish DNA through a blood draw. Thus the investigators will be able to look at both genetic and environmental risk factors to see if PSP patients share any common threads. Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fmri) Investigations of the Pathophysiology and effects of Deep Brain Stimulation in Dystonia: This NIH-sponsored study aims to reveal changes in the integration of brain sensory and motor systems in patients with dystonia using advanced imaging techniques and to also use these techniques in patients undergoing Deep Brain Stimulation to understand how the integration of these systems change as dystonia improves. This information will lead to understanding into both the pathophysiology of dystonia, and the mechanism by which DBS produced its improvement. This may furthermore be used to advance the treatment of dystonia by improving the location or method by which DBS is delivered and through the development of new therapeutic approaches. Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fmri) Investigations of the Pathophysiology of Parkinson s disease: This pilot study aims to understand brain network changes involved in changes in the handling and perception of proprioceptive information in patients with Parkinson s disease. Information gained from this study may be used to develop functional markers for progression of Parkinson s disease and may reveal the neural circuitry involved in the alterations of perception of scale in patients with Parkinson s disease.

The Neurocritical Care Center is a dedicated, multidisciplinary center structured to provide the best patient care and improve communication and coordination of research, while promoting education and advanced administrative efficiency. It is the only such center for neurocritical care in the Midwest. Hospital staff at UH Case Medical Center as well as our community hospitals receive continuous training in the latest, most effective techniques and technology to benefit patient treatment. Studies show that involvement of a dedicated neurological intensive care team correlates to a significant reduction in length-of-stay and controlled cost and, most importantly, a reduction of in-hospital mortality and better patient outcomes. Conditions treated: Neurocritical care is comprehensive multisystem care of the critically ill neurological patient. In the NSU, we care for a broad spectrum of patients including postoperative neurosurgical patients and patients with massive ischemic stroke, status epilepticus, encephalitis and neuromuscular respiratory failure, as well as trauma, intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Innovations: University Hospitals created the world s first neurological intensive care medicine practice nearly three decades ago. We literally wrote the book on Neurocritical care (our textbook, Critical Care Neurology and Neurosurgery, is the standard textbook of the field). UH is one of 25 institutions in the United States that offers a fellowship in Neurocritical Care and our annual international CME conference is the benchmark meeting for the field. University Hospitals is a world leader when it comes to heart and brain resuscitation after cardiac arrest. In fact, George Crile, MD, former Professor and Chief of Surgery at University Hospitals, was the first to successfully use external chest compression in 1903 and the first to use adrenaline (epinephrine) in resuscitation in 1909. Claude Beck, MD, Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery, is credited with performing the first successful cardiac defibrillation in humans in 1947 and introduced the first CPR course for the lay public in 1958. Continuing with this strong tradition, University Hospitals was one of the first institutions to adopt hypothermia after cardiac arrest to protect the brain from damage. We have been working closely with Cleveland EMS to cool patients as early as possible to achieve the best possible outcome. Michael DeGeorgia, MD, Director of the Neurocritical Care Center, is one of the world s leading authorities in hypothermia. University Hospitals introduced the world to neurological intensive care medicine nearly three decades ago. Our textbook, Critical Care Neurology and Neurosurgery, is the standard textbook for the field. Neurocritical Care 22 Need an urgent appointment?

Our mission is to improve patients long-term outcomes by providing care according to the most advanced protocols based on the latest research findings; offering highly personalized care; and maximizing efficiencies during every stage of treatment. These strategies are implemented throughout the continuum of patient care from first diagnosis, through treatment and follow-up. Clinical practice is based on three core principals: Evidence-based nursing practice bridges the gap between nursing research and clinical practice Patient-centered care places responsibility for important aspects of self-care and monitoring in the patients hands by providing tools and support Relationship-based nursing maintains a standard of excellence by relying on the principles of relationship-based nursing Treatment from UH neuroscience nurses provides multidisciplinary services including rehabilitation, pharmacy, social work, nutrition and medical services. Patient-centered care also takes into consideration individual circumstances including lifestyle, family situations, cultural traditions, religious beliefs and other factors during care planning and implementation. Patients are able to contribute to important aspects of their care and healing, and are prepared with the tools and support needed to carry out this responsibility. In this way, patient-centered care can reduce unneeded and unwanted services as well as improve outcomes. Innovations: The Neuroscience Nursing Practice Center aims to bridge the gap between nursing research and clinical practice by creating mechanisms to facilitate the translation of information from evidence-based research to practice. In this way, we ensure critical, succinct, reasonable evaluation and application of research findings as they relate to point-of-care delivery. Neuroscience Education Ambassador Program: Offered to nurses within the UH health system to provide education on conducting a neuro-assessment, completing the NIHSS as an added assessment tool, and caring for patients with stroke. This program was developed to offer a standardized neurological nursing assessment that would target nonneuroscience nurses and would be used throughout the health system. Preoperative Bundle for Neurosurgery: Nursing worked in collaboration with Neurosurgery and Infection Control to develop a presurgical regimen which is now used for the outpatient preoperative neurosurgery patients and also for inpatient neurosurgery patients going for surgery. This process includes screening patients for MRSA/MSSA and prophylactically treating with mupirocin as well as bathing the patient with an alcohol-based scrub. With the implementation of the presurgical bundle, the rate of postoperative infections has shown a decrease. External Ventricular Drain: Nurses in the Neuroscience Intensive Care Unit (NSU) developed a guideline to standardize care of external ventricular drains (EVD). The standardized guideline provides instruction for drain placement which includes giving prophylactic antibiotics prior to drain placement including nursing management of the drain as well as CSF sampling techniques. Data is being collected to evaluate the positive effect this guideline has on improved EVD management. Current clinical trials: To bridge the gap between nursing research and clinical practice, the center aims to put evidence-based research into practice. This ensures high-quality care backed by scientific nursing services. The Neuroscience Nursing Practice Center, in collaboration with the CWRU Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing, is working on a quality improvement research project to standardize nursing care of external ventricular drainage systems to decrease infection rates.

Dr. LaManna is investigating energy demand, energy metabolism and blood flow in the brain, as well as the roles of mechanisms associated with tissue response to pathological insults such as stroke (cerebral edema), hypoxia and seizures. Efficacy and Safety of Clazosentan in Reducing Vasospasm- Related Morbidity and All-Cause Mortality in Adult Patients With Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Treated by Surgical Clipping (CONSCIOUS-2) or endovascular coiling (CONSCIOUS-3). The aim of this study is to demonstrate that clazosentan, administered as a continuous intravenous infusion at 5 mg/h until Day 14 post aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (asah), reduces the incidence of cerebral vasospasm-related morbidity and all-cause mortality within six weeks post-asah. Sophia Sundararajan, MD, PhD, is leading an NIH-funded, K08-award investigating the role of PPAR agonists to limit inflammation and damage caused by a stroke. Janis J. Daly, PhD, MS, Director, Cognitive and Motor Learning Research Program, EUREKA study to treat the brain (where the stroke occurred), using electroencephalography (EEG) signals to direct brain retraining following stroke to measure the potential to more completely restore normal brain and motor function to a greater number of patients in shorter rehabilitation time.

The focus is on developing new approaches to treating major neurological disorders and transferring them from bench-to-bedside in record time. The Translational research team is composed of over 60 clinical researchers whose purpose is to develop scientific interactions that promote understanding of the pathology of neurological disease and to develop novel therapeutic strategies for the treatment of those diseases. Innovations: The Translational Neurosciences Center is funded by a variety of extramural sources including the NIH and other health care agencies, as well as grants and contracts from corporate and philanthropic organizations. Research is currently being conducted in the following areas: In models of stroke, researchers have identified new molecules in the brain that have a neuroprotective function. These, or related molecules, may prove useful in future stroke treatment. Researchers have discovered that drugs used for other treatments stop the growth of some brain tumor cells. These drugs are now being tested in neurological clinical trials. Investigators in the center are developing new insights into how to maintain viable neurons after ischemic insults. Several new targets have been identified and will be developed to determine whether they are drug-treatable. A novel project defining the responses of the embryonic and newborn brain to inflammation, prematurity and ischemia is identifying new strategies for treating babies with these problems. Stem cell therapies for multiple sclerosis and stroke are in development. Current clinical trials: Center investigators use genetic, cellular and molecular analyses to investigate the ways in which the nervous system processes information and which dysfunctions lead to the many kinds of neurological diseases and conditions, including: Stroke Brain tumors Multiple sclerosis Spinal cord injury Alzheimer s disease Translational Neurosciences Daniel W.
