Hypothermia in Neurocritical Care
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2013Hypothermia has long been recognized as an effective therapy for acute neurologic injury. Recent advances in bedside technology and greater understanding of thermoregulatory mechanisms have made this therapy readily available at the bedside. Critical care management of the hypothermic patient can be divided into 3 phases: induction, maintenance, and ...

Brain injury is the most common proximate cause of death in pediatric intensive care units. For children who survive critical illness, long-standing brain damage and residual brain dysfunction can affect quality of life significantly. Therefore, minimizing neurological injury to improve patient outcomes is a priority of neurocritical care.

Infections in Neurocritical Care
Neurocritical Care, 2017Neurointensive care (NICU) patients experience complex infectious disease challenges. Central nervous system (CNS) infections are difficult to diagnose and treat, and post-neurosurgical patients are vulnerable to a unique set of healthcare-acquired infections (HAI) in addition to those typical of critically ill patients.

The history of neurocritical care
2017Critical care medicine came into sharp focus in the second part of the 20th century. The care of acutely ill neurologic patients in the USA may have originated in postoperative neurosurgical units, but for many years patients with neurocritical illness were admitted to intensive care units next to patients with general medical or surgical conditions ...
