Neurologic complications are common in intensive care units (ICUs) and often missed due to sedation. Sepsis is a major cause, leading to worse outcomes for critically ill patients.

Area of Science:

  • Critical Care Medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Hospital Medicine

Background:

  • Neurologic complications frequently occur in critically ill patients.
  • These complications are often unrecognized due to sedation and mechanical ventilation.
  • Encephalopathy is the most common neurologic complication, often multifactorial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review neurologic complications in the intensive care unit (ICU).
  • To focus on complications arising from critical illness and ICU management.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of neurologic complications in critical care.
  • Focus on complications related to critical illness and intensive care.

Main Results:

  • Neurologic complications increase disability, hospital stay, and mortality.
  • Sepsis is linked to the highest incidence of neurologic complications.
  • Encephalopathy is the most common ICU neurologic complication.
  • Conclusions:

    • Neurologic complications significantly impact patient outcomes in the ICU.
    • Early recognition and management of these complications are crucial.
