PURPOSE Intraarterial papaverine infusions are performed to reverse cerebral arterial vasospasm resulting from subarachnoid hemorrhage, but such infusions may lead to increases in intracranial pressure (ICP). This study was undertaken to determine when ICP monitoring is indicated during papaverine treatment. METHODS Seventy-eight vessels were treated in 51 sessions in 28 patients with symptom...

OBJECTIVE A bolus infusion of 7.2% saline in 6% hydroxyethyl starch 200/0.5 (HS) attenuates static intracranial pressure (mean ICP) in subarachnoid hemorrhage patients. This study addressed how HS affects intracranial pulsatility, which is more indicative of intracranial compliance than static ICP. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data. SETTING Intensive care unit in...

BACKGROUND We recently reported that in an experimental setting the zero pressure level of solid intracranial pressure (ICP) sensors can be altered by electrostatics discharges. Changes in the zero pressure level would alter the ICP level (mean ICP); whether spontaneous changes in mean ICP happen in clinical settings is not known. This can be addressed by comparing the ICP parameters level and ...

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is a suitable tool for multi-element analysis at low concentration levels. Rare earth element (REE) determinations in standard reference materials and small volumes of molten ice core samples from Antarctica have been performed with an ICP-time of flight-MS (ICP-TOF-MS) system. Recovery rates for REE in e.g. SPS-SW1 amounted to approximately...

• Auditory neuropathy is an uncommon presentation of elevated ICP, possibly due to stretch of the vestibulocochlear nerve from the increased ICP. • Petrous apex cephalocele and meningoceles are uncommon radiologic features of elevated ICP. • Ischemic central retinal vein occlusion is a rare ophthalmologic manifestation of elevated ICP that may cause irreversible vision loss if the increased ICP...
