Cerebral function monitoring

Cerebral function monitoring is a way that doctors can look at someone's brain to see if it's working properly. Think of the brain like a big computer that controls everything you do and feel.

Now, when you get hurt or sick, your brain can also get hurt or not work as it should. This can make it hard for doctors to know what's going on in your brain.

That's where cerebral function monitoring comes in! It's like a special camera that the doctors can use to watch your brain and see what's happening inside. They use little wires that they attach to your head to send small signals to your brain and then watch how your brain responds.

By watching your brain like this, the doctors can see if there are any problems or damage, and they can help to treat you better.
