ICU-Admitted Pediatric MOGAD: High Rate of Elevated ICP on MRI
Neurocritical careSep 21
MRI of pediatric MOGAD patients admitted to the ICU frequently reveals elevated intracranial pressure, with 12 of 37 showing imaging evidence; 4 had herniation or cerebral shift.
- Among the ICU patients, 16 were intubated (median 3 days), and 27 underwent continuous EEG monitoring; no specific EEG biomarker for MOGAD was observed.
- This was a single-center retrospective chart review, which may limit generalizability.
