Intracranial Pressure Monitoring

Intracranial Pressure Monitoring is a medical procedure used to measure the pressure inside the skull. This pressure can increase due to conditions like brain injuries, strokes, or tumors, which can harm brain function. Monitoring involves placing a small device, usually inserted through the skull, to continually track the pressure levels. Health professionals use this information to assess brain health and guide treatment decisions, helping to prevent serious complications. It's a crucial tool in managing patients with severe neurological issues, ensuring timely responses to changes in brain condition.
