Abstract
Neuromonitoring aims to detect harmful physiologic events, early enough to guide the treatment instituted. Evidences encourage us to implement multimodal monitoring, as no single monitor is capable of providing a complete picture of dynamic cerebral state. This review highlights the role of intracranial pressure monitoring, cerebral oxygenation (jugular venous oximetry, brain tissue oxygenation, near infrared oximetry, cerebral microdialysis) and cerebral blood flow monitoring (direct and indirect methods) in the management of neurologically injured patients. In this context, the recent developments of these monitors along with the relevant clinical implications have been discussed. Nevertheless, the diverse range of data obtained from these monitors needs to be integrated and simplified for the clinician. Hence, the future research should focus on identification of a most useful monitor for integration into multimodal system.
