Future Goals
Delivering the protocols, updating them with current science,
and providing an education framework to teach the
basis for these recommendations is the major focus of
ENLS. However, one additional focus is to use these protocols
as the basis for informing medical professionals
about the dearth of medical evidence supporting these
suggestions. As one reads through the protocols, it quickly
becomes clear that little information currently exists to
mandate these recommendations. Our hope is that
researchers in clinical and translational research will be
stimulated by the recommendations to design clinical
research studies to prove or disprove the utility of such
recommendations and, in time, management of the neurocritically
ill patient in the first hour will be as evidence
based as ACLS
