OBJECTIVE To evaluate hemodynamic effects of mannitol infusion in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage. METHODS Thirty patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage were enrolled. Transcranial doppler was used to detect variables of bilateral middle cerebral arteria (MCA) including mean velocity (Vm) and pulsitility index (PI) before and after 125 ml and 250 ml mannitol infusion (0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240 min). RESULTS When 125 ml or 250 ml mannitol was infused in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage, Vm of bilateral MCA elevated, and reached the top at 30 min, and then decreased. PI decreased in the affected MCA (250 ml) and in the unaffected MCA (125 ml and 250 ml). CONCLUSIONS Mannitol infusion in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage can improve cerebral blood flow in bilateral hemispheres and decrease intracranial pressure in the hemorrhagic hemisphere (250 ml) and in the nonhemorrhagic hemisphere (125 ml and 250 ml).

D008353	Mannitol	A diuretic and renal diagnostic aid related to sorbitol. It has little significant energy value as it is largely eliminated from the body before any metabolism can take place. It can be used to treat oliguria associated with kidney failure or other manifestations of inadequate renal function and has been used for determination of glomerular filtration rate. Mannitol is also commonly used as a research tool in cell biological studies, usually to control osmolarity.	(L)-Mannitol,Osmitrol,Osmofundin
