Influence of Drainage on EVD ICP-signal

December 19, 2022 updated by: prof. dr. Bart Depreitere, Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven

Influence of Drainage of Cerebrospinal Fluid on ICP Signals Obtained Through an External Ventricular Drain.

This observational study investigates ICP signals obtained through an external ventricular drain in the brain connected with an external transducer. In particular, the study investigates how drainage influences the monitored signal: influence of flow rate, reservoir height and initial ICP before draining.
