Abstract

Large hemispheric infarction (LHI), synonymously called malignant middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction, is a severe neurological disease with a high mortality and morbidity. Treating physicians as well as relatives are often faced with few and low quality data when attempting to apply optimal treatment to these patients and make decisions. While current stroke treatment guidelines focus on risk factors, prevention and acute management, they include only limited recommendations concerning intensive care management of LHI. The Neurocritical Care Society (NCS) and the German Society for Neurocritical and Emergency Medicine (DGNI) organized an interdisciplinary consensus conference on intensive care management of LHI to meet this demand. European and American experts in neurology, neurocritical care, neurosurgery, neuroradiology and neuroanesthesiology were selected based on their expertise and research focus. Subgroups for several main topics elaborated a number of central clinical questions concerning this topic and evaluated the quality of the currently available data according to the grading of recommendation assessment, development and evaluation (GRADE) guideline system. Subsequently, evidence-based recommendations were compiled after weighing the advantages against the disadvantages of certain management options. This is a commented abridged version of the results of the consensus conference.
