Dr. Jonathan Mathews (Career and Legacy)

Dr. Jonathan Mathews worked as a neurology fellow specializing in epileptology at Johns Hopkins Hospital. His documented clinical work included participation in Edward Pennington’s summer 2021 intracranial-pressure crisis and VP shunt placement.

Edward Pennington’s Summer 2021 Surgery

Jonathan joined the discussion of shunt placement after Edward’s intracranial-pressure evaluation. During the operation, he monitored Edward’s EEG, announced the start of propofol, and reported a brief intracranial-pressure spike with cortical irritation.

Julia Weston ordered Edward’s admission, MRI, and intracranial-pressure evaluation. Jonathan’s documented role centered on the later shunt discussion and intraoperative EEG monitoring.
