Background and Aim: Craniocerebral trauma is one of the vital public health problems and causes elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) and low cerebral perfusion pressure.
Methods and Materials/Patients: In this work, 15% hyperosmolar solution colloid-mannitol and 3.5% crystalloid-sodium chloride (NaCl) were used simultaneously. Both have the same mechanism of action creating an osmotic gradient between the blood-brain barrier and brain tissue. In a single-center, randomized open clinical study, 35 patients were treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) with isolated traumatic brain injury aged 18 to 65 years with depression of consciousness (4-12 points on the Glasgow coma scale [GCS]), and abnormal computed tomography (CT) data of the head on admission.
Results: The data demonstrated the positive effect of mannitol 15% + NaCl 3.5% on ICP and cerebral blood flow. At 20-25 minutes after administration of a bolus of mannitol 15% + NaCl 3.5%, ICP decreased (stage 2) below 20 mm Hg, reaching an average of 18.1±0.72 mm Hg, which was a 33.2% decrease from baseline.
Conclusion: Combined use of mannitol 15% + NaCl 3.5% in the treatment of intracranial hypertension (ICH) in patients with isolated craniocerebral 3.5±0.2 mL/kg can be recommended in patients with baseline hypovolemia and hyponatremia.

• Bolus infusion of a combined solution of 15% mannitol and 3.5% NaCl hypertonic saline at a rate of 3.5±0.2 mL/kg body weight leads to a rapid (20-25 minutes) and prolonged (>120 minutes) decrease in intracranial pressure (ICP) (by 36.5% of baseline) and a significant (by 41.8%) increase in cerebral perfusion pressure.
• Combined use of mannitol 15% + NaCl 3.5% in the treatment of intracranial hypertension (ICH) in patients with isolated craniocerebral 3.5±0.2 mL/kg can be recommended in patients with baseline hypovolemia and hyponatremia.
• Using the combination of mannitol 15% + NaCl 3.5% in patients revealed a decrease in hematocrit due to hemodilution and an optimal increase in central venous pressure to maintain adequate hemodynamics.
• Application of combination Mannitol + 3.5% NaCl at stage 4 showed maximum increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) 90.2±3.8 mm Hg. This shows that leads to significant and persistent improvement of systemic and cerebral blood circulation.
• The ultrasound diagnostic complex used for M-echopulsation of the 3rd cerebral ventricle with the formula for conversion of IСP=P/k developed by us gives the possibility of safe non-invasive monitoring of ICP in patients with traumatic brain injury.
