Neuroscience Institute

It has been increasingly recognized that excellence in critical care is essential to provide optimal outcomes after complex neurosurgical procedures.

Allegheny General Hospital has long maintained a focus on neuro-critical care, partnering with critical care specialists to provide 24-hour day, seven-day-a-week coverage for our 23-bed neurosurgical intensive care unit.

Each patient is afforded the most sophisticated forms of neuro-intensive care monitoring and support - advanced ventilation techniques, intracranial pressure monitoring, continuous EEG monitoring, evoked potential monitoring and hemodynamic monitoring.
