Abstract
Neuromonitoring is used to assess the central nervous system in the intensive care unit. The purpose of neuromonitoring is to detect neurologic deterioration and intervene to prevent irreversible nervous system dysfunction. Neuromonitoring starts with the standard neurologic examination, which may lag behind the pathophysiologic changes. Additional modalities including continuous electroencephalography (CEEG), multiple physiologic parameters, and structural neuroimaging may detect changes earlier. Multimodal neuromonitoring now refers to an integrated combination and display of non-invasive and invasive modalities, permitting tailored treatment for the individual patient. This chapter reviews the non-invasive and invasive modalities used in pediatric neurocritical care.
