Intrahospital transportation of critically ill patients is associated with significant
complications. In order to reduce overall risk to the patient, such transports should well …

Patients with acute brain injuries tend to be physiologically unstable and at risk of rapid and
potentially life-threatening decompensation due to shifts in intracranial compartment …

Background The aim of the present study was to investigate the incidence of adverse events
(AEs) during intra-hospital transport (IHT) of critically ill patients and evaluate the risk factors …

Neuroimaging is a critical component of triage and treatment for patients who present with

External ventricular drains and lumbar drains are commonly used to divert cerebrospinal
fluid and to measure cerebrospinal fluid pressure. Although commonly encountered in the …

BACKGROUND: Managing patients with hydrocephalus and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
disorders requires repeated head imaging. In adults, it is typically computed tomography …

Background Adult critical care patients in an academic medical center experienced adverse
events during intrafacility transport resulting from lack of preparation. An intervention was …
