Advanced neuromonitoring approaches may enhance detection of neurologic complications in ICU patients compared to standard clinical examinations.

Continuous electroencephalography (EEG) is crucial for identifying seizures in comatose patients, with up to 40% having nonconvulsive status epilepticus.
3
Multimodal neuromonitoring integrating various data types is recommended, as no single modality captures the full range of neurologic changes.

Automated pupillometry offers more accurate assessments of pupillary responses and strong prognostic accuracy in hypoxic ischemic brain injury.
5
Limitations in the evidence base include a focus on primary neurologic injury and the need for specialized expertise for neuromonitoring tools.
