Careful monitoring of pressure within the skull (intracranial pressure, or ICP) is crucial for some neurocritical care patients. But current procedures for measuring ICP via an external ventricular ...

Abstract: Elevation of the Intracranial Pressure (ICP) is one of the most important issues in neurosurgery and neurology in clinical practice. ICP monitoring is utilized in many pathological ...

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 ...

Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of death and disability. When a patient attends an A&E or neurocritical care unit with a head injury, one of the most important parameters to assess injury ...

Researchers report preliminary findings that show a noninvasive method of monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) that could rival the gold standards of invasive intraventricular and intraparenchymal ...

Brazilian researchers have simultaneously demonstrated the mechanism linking high blood pressure to elevated intracranial pressure, validated a non-invasive intracranial pressure monitoring method, ...

Although widely used to detect elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) in primary brain injury, noninvasive tests are not accurate and relying on them may mean many patients with this life-threatening ...

While attending the MEMS & Sensors Executive Congress 2016 (MSEC2016), I met two very bright and capable young men, Nicholas Fritz and Jonathan Garich, from the Blain-Christen Lab at Arizona State ...
