Episode Synopsis

Rush University Medical Center’s neurocritical care team treats patients with complex, emergent neurological conditions, providing them with advanced care that is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
In this episode of Rounding at Rush, Rajeev Garg, MD, chief of the Division of Neurocritical Care at Rush, talks about how Rush clinicians collaborate closely with stroke specialists and neurosurgeons to treat patients with a range of severe neurological injuries, including aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, intracerebral hemorrhage, large ischemic strokes, traumatic brain injuries, status epilepticus and spinal cord injuries.
“Time is brain. The longer an injured brain remains without treatment, the worse the damage and the worse the outcomes. As neurointensivists, our goal is to limit damage to the brain and provide patients the best possible outcomes for recovery.”
