Neurophysiological recording is the major neuromonitoring technique
employed in ICU. In addition, continuous recording of intracranial
pressure has proved to provide infomation useful for critical care
of the patient with severe brain damage. It is, however, difficult
to assess neurochemical and/or metabolic environments of the brain
with these conventional neuromoni toring techniques. Information
regarding these changes, if available on a real-time basis, is
undoubtedly useful for patient care. Many important developments in
bedside techniques to monitor these changes have been achieved
during the last few years. It was the consensus of the editors that
a symposium to exchange knowledge concerning recent advances in
such techniques would be valuable. With this background, the First
International Symposium of Neuro chemical Monitoring in ICU held
May 20-21, 1994, in Tokyo, Japan. It was not the intention of the
organizers that this symposium should survey the whole field of
neuromonitoring in ICU. The symposium was thus focused on clinical
application of microdialysis, jugular venous oximetry, and near
infrared spectroscopy, which currently appear to be the most
promising techniques for monitoring neurochemical and metabolic
changes in the brain in a clinical setting. We termed these
techniques collectively as neuro chemical monitoring, contrasting
them with neurophysiological monitoring in ICU. The concept that
has motivated this symposium was to provide an opportunity to
exchange up-to-date summaries on issues currently debated for these
techniques. This volume is based on the papers presented at the
symposium."
