Clinical evaluation of a new intracranial pressure monitoring device

摘要

Background: Continuous monitoring of intracranial pressure (ICP) still plays a key role in the management of patients at risk from intracranial hypertension. Numerous ICP-measuring devices are available. The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics and the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility of the recently developed Neurovent-P® (REHAU AG+CO, REHAU, Germany) ICP monitoring device.
