Abstract
Patients with craniocerebral trauma endangered by an increase of intracranial pressure (ICP) must be sedated and artificially ventilated. At the same time, the neurosurgeon must have the possibility of establishing the patient’s neurological status at any time, or at least after discontinuing sedation. Pressure-controlled ventilation has numerous advantages in preventing pulmonary complications in multiple trauma patients [1].
