Summary
Neuromonitoring is a shared responsibility in the ICU with several key roles for bedside nursing staff, including the identification and reporting of trends. Nursing staff should be familiar with equipment and supplies needed for neuromonitoring as well as troubleshooting common artifacts and problems. Guideline development and ongoing education are essential to the success of any neuromonitoring program. This chapter provides suggested pathways for integrating bedside neuromonitoring into clinical practice and discussion of day-to-day nursing roles and responsibilities related to bedside monitoring. Multiple modalities, including EEG, aEEG, QEEG, and NIRS, are discussed.
