Analysis of Test results of Transcranial Doppler in Patients with Depression

Objective: Analysis and study of transcranial Doppler in patients with depression(TCD) detection index,provides the reference for the clinical treatment of.Methods: In our hospital in 2011 October-2012 year in October of 120 patients with depression,as observation group,compared with 120 healthy men as control group,underwent transcranial Doppler detection,compared two groups of bilateral middle cerebral artery(MCA),anterior cerebral artery(ACA),posterior cerebral artery(PCA),vertebral basilar artery(VA-BA),blood flow velocity and pulsatility index.Results: The observation group of patients with bilateral middle cerebral artery(MCA),anterior cerebral artery(ACA) and posterior cerebral artery(PCA) blood flow velocity was significantly higher than that of the control group,while the vertebrobasilar artery(VA-BA) blood flow velocity was significantly lower than that of the control group,the difference between groups was significant(p0.05);the control group and the observation group artery patients with bilateral middle cerebral(MCA),anterior cerebral artery(ACA),posterior cerebral artery(PCA),vertebrobasilar artery pulsatility index(VA-BA) were in the normal range(0.6-1.0).Conclusion: Transcranial Doppler detection of cerebral blood flow in patients with depression than in normal human brain blood flow significantly slow,cerebral blood flow changes of transcranial Doppler monitoring of patients with depression,can be used as a routine examination in patients with depression,and provide the basis for the diagnosis and treatment of clinical.
