Management Strategies for Intracranial Pressure Crises in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Intrahospital transports (IHTs) of neurosurgical intensive care unit (NICU) patients can be hazardous. Increasing intracranial pressure (ICP) and/or decreasing cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) as well as cardiopulmonary alterations are common complications of an IHTs, which can lead to secondary brain injury...
