Intracranial Pressure after Head Injuries

Correlation of intraocular pressure with intracranial pressure in children with severe head injuries.

OBJECTIVE To determine whether there was a correlation between tonometric measurements of the intraocular pressure and transducer measurements of the intracranial pressure in the acute setting, and whether intraocular pressure can be used as a surrogate measure of intracranial pressure. Children with traumatic brain injuries commonly develop increased intracranial pressure requiring surgical pl...

Prognostic value of the intracranial pressure levels during the acute phase of severe head injuries.

Intracranial-pressure changes following head injury.

Effect of cervical collars on intracranial pressure in patients with head neurotrauma

Trauma patients are at high risk of cervical and associated injuries. The standard protocol includes immobilization of the cervical spine in a polytrauma as it will help to prevent spinal injuries in the prehospital settings. Hard cervical collar (or alternatives) is routinely used until the cervical spine clearance is obtained . In patients with traumatic brain injury avoiding any kind of mane...

P32: Effect of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation Mode on Intracranial Pressure and Oxygenation in Patients with Traumatic Brain Injuries

This study aimed at compare influences of airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) and Synchronized Intermittent Mechanical Ventilation (SIMV) on intracranial pressure and oxygenation status in patients with traumatic brain injuries. A clinical trial was carried out in 40 patients with traumatic brain injuries in the intensive care unit in Kamyab neurosurgery Hospital, Mashhad, Iran. The pati...
