Review[Continuous monitoring of brain electrical activity as a guide to treatment of acute brain lesion].
Cortical activity of the brain can be monitored continuously by simple, cheap and non-invasive methods. Nevertheless routine monitoring in Neuro ICUs seldom includes traditional or processed EEG. Our clinical experience with the Cerebral Function Monitor (CFM) indicates that a reliable guide to treatment of acute cerebral lesion can be obtained in different clinical situations and steps of management.
