Brain Monitoring Technology in Intensive Care
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a new, non-invasive technology called electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to monitor how well your brain regulates blood flow in the ICU. Researchers want to see if this device can safely and accurately measure brain function alongside the monitoring you're already receiving.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have been diagnosed with a brain bleed or stroke and admitted to a neurosurgical ICU
- You are already receiving standard invasive monitoring (tubes measuring pressure in your brain and blood pressure)
- Your scalp is intact without severe damage, infection, or skull defects that would prevent sensor placement
- You can be monitored continuously for at least 2 hours with good quality data
- You do not have severe bleeding disorders or allergies to electrode materials

This study uses a sensor on the forehead to measure brain activity in patients who are sedated or lightly sedated in the ICU. Researchers want to understand how well this monitoring works in critically ill patients to improve their care.
This trial tests special cameras and sensors that check your brain without surgery. It may help doctors watch for brain swelling and other problems more safely.
This study observes how doctors monitor brain activity in patients admitted to a neurological intensive care unit. Researchers will use special sensors to measure brain waves and other brain functions to better understand how to care for critically ill patients.
This study is testing a new way to predict recovery for people with serious brain injuries in the ICU. It uses continuous brain monitoring to gather more information and help doctors make better treatment decisions.
This trial is testing a new way to monitor pressure inside the skull without surgery, using a small sensor placed on the head. It aims to help emergency doctors quickly decide on the best treatment for people with traumatic brain injury or stroke.
This trial tests a new, non-invasive way to monitor pressure inside the skull for people with traumatic brain injury. It compares the new device to the standard invasive method already being used in your care.
