Serial measurements of neuron specific enolase, glial fibrillary acidic protein and neurofilament light for mortality prediction in patients with severe acute brain injury in the ICU Open
Objectives Prognostication in patients with severe acute brain injury (SABI) in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is complex, often requiring early decisions on life-sustaining therapy. Serum biomarkers such as neurofilament light (NFL), glial…

Neurological Outcome Beyond the ICU in Patients with Severe Acute Brain Injury: A Knowledge gap for ICU Teams Open
Background In patients with severe acute brain injury (SABI) admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) outcome is often uncertain. Physicians have to decide on continuation or withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy (WLST) in the first weeks…

Indications, results and consequences of electroencephalography in neurocritical care: A retrospective study Open
All EEGs were performed to investigate the presence of (NC)SE or seizures. A slowed, but continuous background pattern was found in nearly all patients and (NC)SE and seizures were rarely diagnosed. Adjustments in ASM were made in approxim…

Biomarkers for the prediction of venous thromboembolism in critically ill COVID-19 patients Open
Elevated CRP and D-dimer have a high positive predictive value for VTE in critically ill COVID-19 patients. We developed a prediction table with these biomarkers that can aid clinicians in the timing of imaging in patients with suspected V…
