Abstract
Neurophysiological monitoring is important for the assessment and prediction of regression in patients with severe neurocritical illnesses due to various etiologies. At present, the popularity of neuroelectrophysiological monitoring technology for severe neurocritical patients in China is not widespread enought, the level of monitoring varies, and there is a lack of relevant consensus and norms. This expert consensus combines the opinions of national experts in neuroelectrophysiology and neurocritical care medicine, and providess 13 expert opinions on neuroelectrophysiology technology and application. Commonly used Neurophysiologic monitoring in the Neuro-Intensive Care Unit (NICU) includes three categories: electroencephalogram, evoked potentials and electromyography. The main applications include assessment of coma level and prognosis prediction, reflection of intracranial pressure level, identification of nonconvulsive status epilepticus, assessment of sedation level, determination of brain death, and monitoring of severe peripheral neuropathy. It is recommended that NICU at all levels apply neurophysiologic monitoring techniques to severe neurocritical patients according to the expert consensus.
