Epidural intracranial pressure measurement in rats using a fiber-optic pressure transducer.
Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) is a significant problem in several forms of ischemic brain injury including stroke, traumatic brain injury and cardiac arrest. This elevation may result in further neurological injury, in the form of transtentorial herniation(1,2,3,4), midbrain compression, neurological deficit or increased cerebral infarct(2,4). Current therapies are often inadequate to co...
متن کاملThe measurement of intracranial pressure.
The measurement of intracranial pressure (ICP) as an aid in the assessment of certain neurosurgical patients is now widely accepted, following the initial descriptions of the technique (Guillaume and Janny, 1951; Lundberg, 1960). An understanding of the dynamics of ICP changes is important for many anaesthetists, not only those who are working in specialized neurosurgical units, but also those ...
متن کاملAccuracy of non - invasive intracranial pressure measurement
Non-invasive measurement of intracranial pressure (ICP) reduces the complications and cost for both patient and health care systems. Improvement of non-invasive methods has led to development of systems for reproducing continuous, real-time non-invasive ICP signals. So far, non-invasive methods have been tailored for the patients with head trauma. We have used Schmidt’s auto-adaptive method to ...
متن کاملMeasurement and Management of Increased Intracranial Pressure
Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) is a serious complication of a variety of neurologic injuries and is a major challenge in intensive care units. The most common causes of increased ICP are: traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, neoplasms, hydrocephalus, hepatic encephalopathy, CNS venous return impairment, encephalitis, and abscesses. Prompt diagnosis and intensive monitoring and therapy o...
متن کاملA new optical transducer for arterial pressure measurement.
A new optical pressure transducer system (Viggo) has been assessed and compared with a standard P10 transducer (Spectramed) using a similar 20-gauge cannula, both in vitro in terms of linearity and frequency response and in vivo using an animal model. The linearity of the transducers was comparable; the resonant frequencies were 106 Hz and 75 Hz, respectively. However, the resonant frequency of...
