Bispectral index monitoring in unconscious palliative care patients.
This pilot study looks at the clinical application of bispectral index (BIS) monitoring within the palliative care situation. Using this instrument, the level of awareness in 12 patients was tracked from the onset of unconsciousness until death, and the levels were then related to the patients' clinical state and treatment. The results give a surprising insight into the nature of unconsciousnes...
متن کاملEpileptiform activity in neurocritical care patients.
BACKGROUND Non-convulsive seizures have been reported to be common in neurocritical care patients. Many jurisdictions do not have sufficient resources to enable routine continuous electroencephalography (cEEG) and instead use primarily intermittent EEG, for which the diagnostic yield remains uncertain. Determining risk factors for epileptiform activity and seizures could help identify patients ...
متن کاملYear in review 2010: Critical Care - neurocritical care
In 2010 Critical Care published a large number of articles on critical care aspects of neurologic and neurosurgical conditions. These aspects included investigation of diagnostic criteria for bacterial meningitis, critical illness myopathy and their relationship to systemic inflammation. A number of studies investigated the biology of sepsis-related delirium, its biomarkers, its relationship to...
متن کاملOptimal glycemic control in neurocritical care patients
Currently, the major issue in glycemic control in neurocritical care patients is that tight glycemic control (target range of 80 to 110 mg/dL) using intensive insulin therapy is associated with higher rates of hypoglycemia without an improvement in survival rate. The review by Kramer and colleagues in this issue of Critical Care confirms these data but provides solid evidence about the relation...
متن کاملYear in review 2011: Critical Care - neurocritical care
Contributions from the neurosciences to Critical Care in 2011 covered an array of topics. We learned about potential biomarkers for, and the effect of cerebral oxygen metabolism on, delirium, in addition to treatment of the latter. A group of investigators studied surface cooling in healthy awake volunteers, and incidence of infection associated with therapeutic hypothermia. The effects of stat...
