[The intensive therapy of brain edema by using clofelin and a hypertonic solution of sodium chloride in neurosurgical patients].
Efficacy was studied of combined use of clophelinum and hypertonic solution of sodium chloride during intensive therapy of brain edema in 32 patients with brain tumors. The above preparations provided efficient dehydration therapy that entailed regression of prior neurological deficit in the postoperative period, with blood plasma osmolarity values remaining in the normal range.
