Abstract Coma and disorders of consciousness (DoC) are highly prevalent constitute a burden for patients, families, society worldwide. As part the Curing Campaign, Neurocritical Care Society partnered with National Institutes Health to organize symposium bringing together experts from all over world develop research targets DoC. The conference was structured along six domains: (1) defining endotype/phenotypes, (2) biomarkers, (3) proof-of-concept clinical trials, (4) neuroprognostication,...
This proceedings article presents actionable research targets on the basis of presentations and discussions at 2nd Curing Coma National Institutes Health (NIH) symposium held from May 3 to 5, 2021. Here, we summarize background, priorities, panel discussions, deliverables discussed during across six major domains related disorders consciousness. The include (1) Biology Coma, (2) Database, (3) Neuroprognostication, (4) Care Comatose Patients, (5) Early Clinical Trials, (6) Long-term Recovery....
The critical care management of patients after cardiac arrest is burdened by a lack high-quality clinical studies and the resultant high-certainty evidence. This results in limited practice guideline recommendations, which may lead to uncertainty variability management. Critical crucial affects outcome. Although guidelines address some relevant topics (including temperature control neurological prognostication comatose survivors, 2 for there are more robust studies), many important subject...
To define consensus entrustable professional activities (EPAs) for neurocritical care (NCC) advanced practice providers (APPs), establish validity evidence the EPAs, and evaluate factors that inform entrustment expectations of NCC APP supervisors.
The goal of this task force was to examine the 1992 definition intensivist, identify gaps, and initiate a path forward define concise practical that could be applied globally. A modified Delphi technique used develop revised roles intensivist. We determined priori 75% or greater participant agreement for essential intensivist required. consisting physicians, respiratory therapist, advanced practice providers, pharmacist in critical/intensive care medicine, various settings, established with...
Nurses with specialized stroke knowledge have long been recognized as essential to both patient care and the success of programs. However, recent pandemic ongoing economic pressures in healthcare pose significant challenges sustaining supporting nursing teams. While data show a decline nurses planning leave their positions, workplace satisfaction remains challenge. This presents an opportunity for program leaders prioritize healthy work environment efforts re-engage empower staff, enhance...
A quality improvement project was undertaken by Neuro-ICU nurses to determine possible effects from open visitation. From a perspective, nurses' concerns were investigated along with their perceptions about visitation need for policy revision. Vast variability in interpretation and implementation of individualized suggested the following: staff education its implementation, review literature validity deleterious physiologic on neuroscience patients visitation, improved communication among
Objectives: To provide a concise review of knowledge and practice pertaining to the diagnosis initial management unanticipated adult patient disorders consciousness (DoC) by general intensivist. Data Sources: Detailed search strategy using PubMed OVID Medline for English language articles describing acute DoC diagnostic evaluation strategies including indications transfer. Study Selection: Descriptive interventional studies that address DoC, their management, transfer, as well outcome...
We examined the associations between Neurological Pupillary Index (NPi) and disposition at hospital discharge in patients admitted to neurocritical care unit with acute brain injury (ABI) due ischemic stroke (AIS), spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), aneurysmal subarachnoid (SAH), traumatic (TBI). The primary outcome was (home/acute rehabilitation vs. death/hospice/skilled nursing facility). Secondary outcomes were tracheostomy tube placement transition comfort measures. Among 2258...
Stroke program leaders are experts in clinical care and the administrative aspects of caring for patients with stroke. However, consultation inside outside organization may strengthen program. Quality improvement (QI) regulatory readiness two common areas where expertise be helpful. Internal come from hospital or system quality as well specialists. Other service line informational technology within helpful to address concerns. Externally, stroke consult associated national organizations like...
