Decompressive Craniectomy in Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: The Intensivist’s Point of View
Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a severe pathology with important social and economic concerns, decompressive craniectomy (DC) represents a life-saving surgical option to treat elevated intracranial hypertension (ICP). The rationale

Optic nerve sheath diameter ultrasound evaluation in intensive care unit. possible role and clinical aspects in neurological critical patients' daily monitoring [PDF]
Background. The increase of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is a reliable, noninvasive sonographic marker of intracranial hypertension. Aim of the study was to demonstrate the efficacy of ONSD evaluation, when monitoring neurocritical patients, to
