Measurement of intracranial pressure (ICP) can be invaluable in the management of
critically ill patients. Cerebrospinal fluid is produced by the choroid plexus in the brain …

Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is a staple of neurocritical care. The most commonly
used current methods of monitoring in the acute setting include fluid-based systems …

Regulation of the cerebral circulation relies on the complex interplay between
cardiovascular, respiratory, and neural physiology. In health, these physiologic systems act …

Adequate oxygen delivery to a tissue depends on sufficient oxygen content in arterial blood
and blood flow to the tissue. Oximetry is a technique for the assessment of blood …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an optical technique that can measure brain tissue
oxygenation and haemodynamics in real-time and at the patient bedside allowing medical …

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is characterized by lower limb atherosclerosis impairing
blood supply and causing walking-induced leg pain or claudication. Adherence to traditional …

Passive heat induces beneficial perfusion profiles, provides substantive cardiovascular
strain, and reduces blood pressure, thereby holding potential for healthy and cardiovascular …

The challenges posed by acute brain injury (ABI) involve the management of the initial insult
in addition to downstream inflammation, edema, and ischemia that can result in secondary …

Measuring intracranial pressure (ICP) is necessary for the treatment of severe head injury
but measurement systems are highly invasive and introduce risk of infection and …

Background: Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring has been used for decades in
management of various neurological conditions. The gold standard for measuring ICP is a …
