Popis: Neuroprotective agents are medications that can alter the course of metabolic events and have neuroprotective function. Neuroprotective agents are needed in patients undergoing a surgical procedure and clinical conditions that correspond with the central nervous system (CNS); also, in intensive care, the neuroprotective agents are often used to prevent complications and patient deterioration. Over the years, there is still no clear understanding of the potential for neuroprotection and the interactions between various drugs that serve a crucial role in anesthetic care and critical illness. This literature review will discuss further the mechanism of neuronal damage and various neuroprotective agents.
