Neurological Pupillary Index (NPi) Measurement Using Pupillometry and Outcomes in Critically Ill Children

Aim/objectiveNeurological Pupil Index (NPi), measured by automated pupillometry (AP), allows the objective assessment of pupillary light reflex (PLR). NPi ranges from 0 (non-reactive) to 5 (normal). In this study, we aimed to compare neurologic and functional outcomes in children admitted for neurol...

Summary:Aim/objectiveNeurological Pupil Index (NPi), measured by automated pupillometry (AP), allows the objective assessment of pupillary light reflex (PLR). NPi ranges from 0 (non-reactive) to 5 (normal). In this study, we aimed to compare neurologic and functional outcomes in children admitted for neurologic injury with normal (≥3) versus abnormal (
