    Abstract:
    Data is reported in evidence of the possibility of using separate impedancemetry for intravital diagnosis of the degree of manifestation and the dynamics of development of brain edema and swelling. The specific features of the effect of mannite, furosemide, sorbitol, dexamethasone, and thiopental sodium on brain edema and swelling were studied in the clinic under control of impedancemetry in patients with craniocerebral trauma of various severity and edema and swelling of different degree of manifestation. Experimental study on a model of intracerebral hemorrhage showed that mannite, furosemide, and dexamethasone act on the dynamics of edema and swelling in phases.
