Summary

Monitoring traumatic brain injury represents an integral part of the intensive care of severely brain injured patients. Special methods for neuromonitoring allow the detection and treatment of early secondary ischaemic insults associated with worse outcome. This review article covers the current views of brain tissue oxygen monitoring used in clinical practice.

Keywords:
brain injury – neuromonitoring – tissue oxygenation
