Abstract:
Summary On the basis of a series of 75 patients, the practical use of ICP continuous long-term recording in severe head injuries without mass lesions or remaining deeply comatose after surgical procedures is critically analyzed. ICP monitoring alone seems to be not essential for prognosis. Conversely it is of much greater use as a guide to management (respirator treatment, osmotics, CSF drainage). If the pros and cons of the procedure are carefully weighed, it would appear that, for the time being, ICP long-term monitoring is justified only in comatose patients on intensive care.
