Abstract

The daily practice of neurointensivists focuses on the recognition of subtle changes in the neurological examination interactions between the brain and systemic derangements and brain physiology Common alterations such as fever hyperglycemia and hypotension have different consequences in patients with brain insults compared with patients of general medical illness Various technologies have become available or are currently being developed The session on “research and technology” of the first neurocritical care research conference held in Houston in September of 2009 was devoted to the discussion of the current status and the research role of stateofthe art technologies in neurocritical patients including multimodality neuromonitoring biomarkers neuroimaging and “omics” research proteomix genomics and metabolomics We have summarized the topics discussed in this session We have provided a brief overview of the current status of these technologies and put forward recommendations for future research applications in the field of neurocritical careThe First Neurocritical Care Research Conference was funded by award R13NS065494 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke PI JI Suarez the Integra Foundation and the Neuroscience Center of the St Luke’s Episcopal Hospital in Houston TX and endorsed by the Neurocritical Care SocietyChair
