Invasive Versus Non Invasive Measurement of Intracranial Pressure in Brain Injury Trial (IMPRESSIT)

NCT02322970 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 490

Last updated 2020-07-01

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Investigators aim to assess sensitivity and specificity of transcranial doppler in ruling out intracranial hypertension in all patients admitted to intensive care unit for brain injury and needing Intracranial Pressure (ICP) monitoring (according to international guidelines). Non invasive ICP measurement through the use of transcranial doppler will be carried out before and after standard invasive ICP monitoring placement.

Conditions

  • Intracranial Hypertension

Interventions

DEVICE

transcranial Doppler

Comparison of non invasive intracranial pressure (through use of transcranial Doppler ) vs invasive monitoring (through insertion of intracerebral catheters) with the purpose of comparing these two techniques in terms of specificity and sensitivity.
