There is no time limit for such surgery. It could be 3 - 8 hours (generally no more than 8 hours.) It depends where the blood clot is and how difficult it is to contain.
Dr. Devi Prasad
There are no pain or motion neuroreceptors in the brain proper. This is what allowes the patient to be kept conscious during many neurosurgeries.
From out-patient surgery centers!
This may be chosen because the patient's conscious response to stimuli or voluntary actions must be measured to assure the appropriate outcome of the surgery and to influence the actions of the surgeon performing the surgery (as in, if the patient is asked to speak and the surgeon is operating in a part of the brain that controls these functions, if the patient's speech improves, then the surgery is successful - if the patient's speech becomes slurred or inarticulate, then the surgeon may need to do more or may need to stop now).
The most important one is the brain. A surgeon can do surgery on the brain while the patient is awake.
Medications are used only when a doctor suspects a diagnosis is present. They do not use brain surgery for psychological problems.
Removal of the patient's brain tumor was consider a risky surgical procedure, however the patient elected to proceed with the surgery nonetheless.
If surgery to remove the clot is out of the question, the patient will have to wait for his/her brain to heal on its own.
The patient will require a short hospital stay.the patient meets several times with the neurologist to adjust the stimulation.The patient's medications are adjusted after surgery, with a reduction in levodopa likely.
If for answering the A+ psychology question. READ THE LESSON YOU LAZY #$%$er. (Brain surgery)
