Introduction The reported intracerebral hemorrhage rate due to ventriculostomy placement
varies widely. As studies emerge regarding alternative techniques of ventriculostomy …

Hemorrhagic stroke accounts for only 10% to 15% of all strokes; however, it is associated
with devastating outcomes. Extension of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) into the ventricles or …

Background. Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring has become standard in the
management of neurocritical patients. A variety of monitoring techniques and devices are …

External ventricular drains (EVDs) are commonly used in neurosurgery in different
conditions but frequently in the management of traumatic brain injury (TBI) to monitor and/or …

Assessment of intracranial pressure (ICP) is essential in the management of acute
intracranial catastrophe to limit or actively reduce ICP. This article provides background …
