Volatile sedation with sevoflurane in intensive care patients with acute stroke or subarachnoid haemorrhage using AnaConDa(R): an observational study

Conclusion
Sevoflurane led to sufficient sedation, but decreased MAP and CPP in a selected cerebrovascular neurocritical care population. In about a third of these patients, severe adverse reactions, including intolerable ICP increases, were observed.
