Neuro Critical Care

Neurological emergencies—such as severe strokes, brain hemorrhages, traumatic brain injuries, seizures, and spinal cord injuries—require rapid, highly specialized critical care. Neuro critical care combines advanced monitoring, complex decision-making, and coordinated multidisciplinary treatment to protect the brain and nervous system, prevent complications, and optimize recovery.

Each year, about 795,000 people in the U.S. experience a stroke, and nearly 1 in 4 are recurrent strokes.

At Texas IPS, our neuro critical care team provides round-the-clock expertise for patients with acute neurological injuries or disease. We use continuous brain and hemodynamic monitoring, targeted therapies to control intracranial pressure, and meticulous coordination with neurology, neurosurgery, and rehabilitation specialists to give patients the best possible chance at recovery.

Early neurocritical interventions in severe brain injury can improve functional outcomes and reduce mortality by up to 17%.

Our neuro critical care services include:

• 24/7 coverage by critical care physicians with neuro expertise
• Advanced intracranial pressure monitoring and management
• Continuous EEG for seizure detection and management
• Specialized ventilator strategies for brain and spinal cord injuries
• Aggressive stroke and intracranial hemorrhage management
• Post-operative neurosurgical care
• Coordination of early rehabilitation planning to maximize recovery potential

We understand that neurological critical illness affects patients as well as their families, decision-making, and quality of life. Our approach combines cutting-edge medicine with compassionate communication, guiding families through every step of the critical care journey.
