Brief Summary: The ultrasound of the optic nerve sheath diameter ONSD is a non-invasive tool used in the detection of intracranial hypertension and other neurological conditions The aim of this research is to evaluate the correlation between the ultrasound measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter and the side of neurological focus in the physical examination of adult patients evaluated in emergency departments
Detailed Description: II Hypothesis The ultrasound measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter correlates with the side of neurological focus in the physical examination of adult patients evaluated in emergency departments

III Objectives Estimate the correlation between the ultrasound measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter and the side of neurological focus in the physical examination of adult patients evaluated in emergency departments

Determine the sensitivity and specificity of the ultrasound measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter for predicting the side of neurological focus

IV Methodology

Study design

A observational study will be conducted in a secondary care hospital

Population and sample

Adult patients 18 years presenting to the emergency department with neurological symptoms such as headache altered level of consciousness motor or sensory deficit among others will be included Patients with contraindications for ocular ultrasound or with a history of previous ocular surgery will be excluded

Procedures

1 Informed consent will be obtained from patients who meet the inclusion criteria
2 A neurological physical examination will be performed to identify the side of neurological focus
3 The optic nerve sheath diameter will be measured using ultrasound with a high-frequency linear transducer 75-12 MHz
4 Demographic clinical and ultrasound data will be recorded for the patients

Data analysis

The correlation between the ultrasound measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter and the side of neurological focus will be calculated using Pearsons or Spearmans correlation coefficient depending on the distribution of the data Additionally sensitivity specificity positive and negative predictive values and 95 confidence intervals will be calculated to determine the diagnostic utility of the ultrasound measurement of the optic nerve sheath diameter in identifying the side of neurological focus

V Ethical considerations The ethical guidelines established by the Declaration of Helsinki will be followed and the privacy and confidentiality of patients will be protected The protocol will be approved by the hospitals Research Ethics Committee before its implementation
