Computerised tomography indices of raised intracranial pressure and traumatic brain injury severity in a New Zealand sample [PDF]
After traumatic brain injury (TBI) complex cellular and biochemical processes occur¹ including changes in blood flow and oxygenation of the brain; cerebral swelling; and raised intracranial pressure (ICP).² This can dramatically worsen the damage³ and ...

Optic nerve sheath diameter: A novel way to monitor the brain
Measurement and monitoring of intracranial pressure is pivotal in management of brain injured patients. As a rapid and easily done bed side measurement, ultrasonography of the optic nerve sheath diameter presents itself as a possible replacement of the ...

Intracranial compliance during the post-operative period after surgery for intracranial aneurysms
Generalised post-operative cerebral vasospasm is a major factor in delineating poor operative results following direct ruptured intracranial aneurysms. Continuous monitoring of intracranial pressure seems to be particularly helpful on such occasions, and

Characterization of intracranial pressure behavior in chronic epileptic animals: a preliminary study
Intracranial pressure (ICP) is a major neurological parameter in animals and humans. ICP is a function of the relationship between the contents of the cranium (brain parenchyma, cerebrospinal fluid, and blood) and the volume of the skull.
