Neurocritical Care Program
Through advanced neurological monitoring, neuroimaging and precision-based care, our dedicated neurocritical care team focuses on the detection and management of acute brain injuries in the intensive care unit (ICU) environment. We also ensure long-term management through our outpatient ICU follow-up clinics. Our team provides inpatient consultations for patients in the pediatric, cardiac and neonatal ICUs.
We utilize advanced state-of-the art and innovative technologies to monitor brain function to develop individualized therapies to protect the brain and prevent neurological deterioration. This includes:
- Continuous video EEG monitoring to detect seizures and other changes in cerebral electrical activity
- Multimodal monitoring to assess cerebral autoregulation and brain compliance
- Transcranial doppler ultrasound to measure cerebral blood flow
- Intracranial pressure monitoring
- Cerebral and body regional oximetry
- Brain tissue oxygenation
- Brain temperature monitoring
- Pupillometry to assess autonomic nervous system function
- CT and MR neuroimaging
- Cerebral angiography
