An international team of researchers led by Lithuanian scientists provide additional evidence that intracranial pressure plays an important role in normal-tension glaucoma, which accounts for up to 50 ...

Intracranial pressure (ICP) is an important parameter in the monitoring of critical-care patients, but it can currently only be obtained accurately via invasive methods. Researchers from Germany have ...

Expert Rev Neurother. 2012;12(8):915-928. In addition to the mean ICP numbers, the ICP waveform gives important information about the state of intracranial compliance (Figure 2). The normal waveform ...

Aug. 8 (UPI) --German researchers have developed a new method to monitor intracranial pressure in a noninvasive way that may replace the current invasive method. Researchers from Klinikum Stuttgart ...

Objectives: The evidence to guide therapy in pediatric traumatic brain injury is lacking, including insight into the intracranial pressure/cerebral perfusion pressure thresholds in abusive head trauma ...

Examining the patient's eye with ultrasound can reveal high intracranial pressure. (Credit: NiSonic) Elevated intracranial pressure following an accident can lead to brain injury and spinal cord ...

An elevation in intracranial pressure can be a medical or surgical emergency. There are many possible conditions that can lead to elevated intracranial pressure on either an acute or a chronic basis ...

Intracranial hypertension (IH), a clinical condition typically seen in the intensive care unit, is caused by increased pressure surrounding the brain. In many situations, the cause of chronic IH is ...
