Effects of the Neurological Wake-Up Test on Intracranial Pressure and Cerebral Perfusion Pressure in Brain-Injured Patients
Neurocritical Care , 08/03/09
Skoglund K et al. – When continuous propofol sedation was interrupted and NWT was performed in severely brain–injured patients, the mean ICP and CPP levels were modestly increased. A subset of patients showed more pronounced changes. To date, the role of the NWT in the neurointensive care of TBI and SAH patients is unclear. Although the NWT is safe in the majority of patients and may provide useful clinical information about the patient’s level of consciousness, alternate monitoring methods are suggested in patients showing marked ICP and/or CPP changes during NWT.
