So here at Strong we have a
very new Neuro ICU.
The unit is 2 years old.
It's a 12 bed unit.
And our unit is pretty impressive
in that it is state-of-the-art.
We have all the latest monitoring
equipment.  
We also have specialized equipment
to do specific types of monitoring
of the neurologic system that you
aren't going to find in other ICU's
like in a medical ICU or in a 
surgical ICU.
Because that's not what they're
designed for.
So we have actual video cameras where
we can monitor changes in someone's
pupil size and reactivity. 
Which is a pathway in to monitoring the
functioning of the brain.
We have the ability to measure the
pressure within the skull,
and now how things are reacting
post-stroke. 
We can measure along with that pressure
how well the blood is flowing
to the damaged parts of the brain.
We are actually in the works of getting
a portable head CT scanner. 
Where we can wheel it right to the bedside
and scan the patient in their bed without
having to take them to the CT scanner.
Which is a pretty amazing thing.
