The practice of pediatric neurocritical care by the child

Semin Pediatr Neurol · Dec 2014

Review

The practice of pediatric neurocritical care by the child neurologist.

Pediatric neurocritical care (NCC) has emerged as a defined subspecialty in child neurology and requires a collaborative effort among child neurologists, pediatric critical care medicine specialists, and pediatric neurosurgeons. Pediatric NCC has evolved differently in children than in adults, and its delivery depends on the local resources available for pediatric care. This article reviews the current practice of pediatric NCC by child neurologists: where it is practiced, how it is practiced, the disorders encountered (that differ from adult NCC), the training required to care for these disorders, and what is needed for the future of pediatric NCC.
