The molecular formula of Caffiene is C8H10N4O2. Caffeine is most commonly used to improve mental alertness, but it has many other uses. Caffeine is used by mouth or rectally in combination with painkillers (such as aspirin and acetaminophen) and a chemical called ergotamine for treating migraineheadaches. It is also used with painkillers for simple headaches and preventing and treating headaches after epidural anesthesia. Some people use caffeine for asthma, gallbladder disease, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), shortness of breath in newborns, and low blood pressure. Caffeine is also used for weight loss and type 2 diabetes. Very high doses are used, often in combination with ephedrine, as an alternative to illegal stimulants. Caffeine is one of the most commonly used stimulants among athletes.
Trauma is a common cause of spinal epidural hematoma. Non-trauma causes include anticoagulant therapy, hemophilia, liver disease, aspirin use, systemic lupus erythematosus.
One key difference is the location of the bleeding. A subdural hematoma occurs between the dura mater and the arachnoid mater layers of the meninges, while an epidural hematoma occurs between the skull and the outer layer of the dura mater. This difference in location can affect the clinical presentation and management of the two types of hematomas.
Epidural hematoma
An epidural hematoma is a pocket of blood that forms immediately outside the dura mater. The dura mater is the fibrous outermost sheath or membrane that encloses the brain and spinal cord.
I think so
An epidural hematoma occurs when a blood clot forms underneath the skull, but on top of the dura, the tough covering that surrounds the brain. They usually come from a tear in an artery that runs just under the skull called the middle meningeal artery. They are usually associated with a skull fracture.
Epidural hematoma really means a clot above the dura. Most people would say epidural bled if it is still bleeding.
A subdural hematoma is a collection of blood in the space between the outer layer (dura) and middle layers of the covering of the brain (the meninges). It is most often caused by torn, bleeding veins on the inside of the dura as a result of a blow to the head.The meninges are layers or covers of the brain.There are 3 meninges but only 2 ways which blood can collect: EPIDURAL, SUBDURAL, SUBARACHNOID.Dr. evans onyango
Head swelling, asperation,as well as sudden urge to quit playing (for children),
A hematoma is caused by a break in the wall of a blood vessel. The break may be spontaneous, as in the case of an aneurysm, or caused by trauma. In the case of a minor or major blow to the effected part of the brain may lead to sudden death, other located hematoma's that receive minor or major blows may cause some severe complications in the area of which it is in. The word "hematoma" came into usage around 1850. It was devised from Greek roots -- hemat-, referring to the blood + -oma, from soma meaning body = a bloody body, or a collection of blood. The many different kinds of hematomas are defined by location and include: * epidural hematoma, * extradural hematoma, * intracerebral hematoma, * intracranial hematoma, * nasal septum hematoma, * subcutaneous hematoma, * subdural hematoma. Common Misspellings: haematoma
Epidural hematomas usually form when a violent blow breaks a blood vessel in the space outside the dura mater, whether in the skull or in the spinal column.
You have the meninges to cover the brain and spinal cord. Meninges composed of three layers. Outer most is tough and called as dura matter. Extradural means between the dura matter and the skull. Typically the middle meningeal artery brakes to give you that extradural hematoma. It is also called as epidural hematoma. The British spell it as haematoma. The US should spell it as hematoma, I guess.
