What do Neurocritical Care Physicians do?

Neurocritical care physicians specialize in the diagnosis and management of life-threatening neurological conditions in a neurocritical care unit (neuro ICU), which includes severe strokes, brain trauma, aneurysms, and status epilepticus. 

They also treat secondary complications affecting other organ systems and collaborate with a team of specialists to provide 24/7 monitoring, interventions, and ongoing care for critically ill neurological patients.  

What they do

These physicians focus on a range of severe neurological disorders, such as: 

  • Strokes (ischemic and hemorrhagic)
  • Brain and spinal cord trauma
  • Ruptured aneurysms
  • Coma and seizures (including status epilepticus)
  • Brain infections like encephalitis and meningitis
  • Complicated brain tumors
  • Acute neuropathies, including Guillain-Barré syndrome

Aspects

Intensive monitoring: They use advanced techniques, such as continuous EEG and intracranial pressure monitoring, to monitor brain activity and function. 

Emergency stabilization and treatment: They provide immediate care for neurological emergencies to stabilize the patient and prevent further damage. 

Complication management: They manage medical complications that can arise in critically ill patients, including cardiac, respiratory, and renal complications. 

Collaborative care: They work closely with a multidisciplinary team that may include neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, respiratory therapists, and other specialists. 

Prognosis and ethical discussions: They also address complex moral and social issues, such as estimating prognosis and counseling families on advance care directives.
