Neurointensive Care

Critical brain injuries and neurological disorders can be life threatening and lead to permanent brain damage if immediate diagnosis, treatment and care are not provided to the patient. Patients who require ICU care have a diverse range of neurological diseases including brain tumors, brain aneurysms, strokes, hemorrhages in the brain, status epilepticus, head and spinal cord traumatic injury, severe nervous system infections as well as many other life- threatening neurological conditions .

The Neuro intensive care units at Citi Neuro Centre are specialized units where round the clock and personalized care is provided to patients suffering from such critical neurological conditions. Our ICUs are equipped with advanced monitoring techniques including ICP monitoring, brain oxygen monitoring, and continuous video EEG in addition to essential therapeutic and diagnostic equipment.
