Glycemia management in neurocritical care patients: a review

Federico Bilotta et al. J Neurosurg Anesthesiol. 2009 Jan.

Abstract

Intensive research investigating the relation between the management of glycemia and outcome in patients receiving neurocritical care has underlined the possible benefits and adverse events related to glucose control. Here, we review experimental and clinical studies investigating the effects of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia on the brain that advance current knowledge on managing glycemia in patients receiving neurocritical care.
