Intracranial pressure for clinicians – it is not just a number (2023) Giada Cucciolini

Description

This article reviews recent research on invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring in severe brain injury cases. It highlights how analyzing the ICP-tracing provides critical information beyond the absolute value, including compensatory reserve, autoregulation estimation, and pulse waveform analysis. The goal is to improve understanding of intracranial dynamics and apply tailored, personalized therapy using dynamic targets.
