Neurocritical care
-
Intracranial multimodal monitoring (iMMM) is increasingly used for neurocritical care. However, concerns arise regarding iMMM invasiveness considering limited evidence in its clinical significance and safety profile. We conducted a synthesis of evidence regarding complications associated with iMMM to delineate its safety profile. ⋯ Currently, iMMM systems present a similar safety profile as intracranial devices commonly used in neurocritical care. Long-term outcomes of prospective studies will complete the benefit-risk assessment of iMMM in neurocritical care. Consensus-based reporting guidelines on iMMM use are needed to bolster future collaborative efforts.
