Collecting Pupillometer Data to Define Normal Pupil Measurements in Neuro-Intensive Care Patients

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are gathering extensive data to better understand pupillometer readings in patients admitted to intensive care units. The study aims to develop standard reference values for pupil size, reaction, and neurological pupil index based on automated pupillary exams. This will help define what normal pupil measurements look like in a clinical setting. Data collection involves patients in intensive care who have been ordered by their attending physicians to undergo regular pupillary assessments using a pupillometer device. Nurses perform these assessments routinely. The project plans to collect a large number of observations to accurately describe the normal range of pupillary exam results. During the study, participants will have daily oculomotor evaluations measuring pupillary changes during their ICU stay, recorded each day at 900am. This observational approach helps researchers analyze pupil data over time to better understand neurological function. The study will continue to gather data until September 2028.
