Monitoring of patients with critical neurological illness has expanded significantly over the
past several decades. Before the advent and application of technologies such as continuous …

You probably cannot recall when you last saw an intensive care unit (ICU) patient with
abnormal cardiac function whose heart was not continuously monitored. Yet, it is standard …

OBJECTIVES: Critically ill patients are at high risk of acute brain injury. Bedside
multimodality neuromonitoring techniques can provide a direct assessment of physiologic …

The ability to detect brain dysfunction and injury in critically ill patients is being enriched
thanks to remarkable advances in neuromonitoring data acquisition and analysis. Studies …

In spite of the many tools available for monitoring the central nervous system, there are no
clinical trials which prove that continuous monitoring of any single variable in the intensive …

" I commend the editors for their careful perspective on the current state of neuromonitoring.
The individual chapters provide excellent overviews of specific neuromonitoring tools and …

In the neurointensive care unit, neurologic monitoring is depended upon to signal the onset
of neurologic decline. Many monitoring techniques such as intracranial pressure monitoring …

Early detection of secondary events is a major target of neuromonitoring in critically ill
patients. Intracranial pressure (ICP) and cerebral perfusion pressure are the most widely …

The monitoring of critically ill brain injured patients has become increasingly complex.
Several techniques are now available for global and regional brain monitoring that provide …

While structure of the central nervous system (CNS) is evaluated through diagnostic tests
such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, CNS function requires …
