Brain temperatures were measured at intervals of 1 cm from the brain surface to the lateral ventricle at shunt operation. Rectal temperature was also measured. The difference between intraventricular and rectal temperatures was correlated with age (p = 0.0486), Glasgow Coma Scale (p = 0.0129), Hunt and Hess grade (p = 0.0101), and improvement score after VP shunting (p = 0.0104). Measurement of brain temperature may predict the outcome of VP shunting in patients with SAH., Article}, pages = {1--5}, title = {Brain Temperature in Patients with Chronic Hydrocephalus after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage}, volume = {44}, year = {2004} }
