Non-Invasive Intracranial Pressure in COVID-19 Individuals
The use of non-invasive intracranial pressure monitoring, including intracranial pressure pulse morphology in patients with COVID-19, could calculate possible components associated with the presence of neurological symptoms in these patients, in addition to being a tool with the potential to monitor the repercussion of MV at cerebral compliance patient patients. In addition, it is likely that patients with COVID-19 also have cerebral embolization more frequently than healthy patients, which is justified by transcranial doppler ultrasound assessment. The aim of the study is to monitor this brain pressure using a non-invasive method of monitoring, with a helmet-like system in place, for 1 hour for 7 consecutive days. There will be no associated invasive procedure of any kind. Monitoring will be done by the criteria themselves, no place where the patient and the mandatory volunteer. Another objective is to capture signs of microembolisms (small strokes that have not yet manifested) by performing a doppler ultrasound on the head with a helmet also for 1 hour, in a single evaluation.
The study population will include inpatients with COVID-19 infection. The control group will be in patients who do not have Covid-19. The control group will consist of people with similar characteristics and who have not recovered. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria incorporated into the monitoring with a non-invasive intracranial pressure device for 1 hour during hospitalization (Brain4Care® device approved by ANVISA), being monitored for up to seven days, in addition to monitoring for 1 hour with a transcranial doppler ultrasound helmet DWL® in a single assessment. There will be no invasive procedures or other equipment used without due knowledge by Organs competent bodies. It does not collect collection or retention of any biological material.

Sampling Method
Study Population
This is a multicenter longitudinal study of 4 centers in Brazil: Hospital of São Paulo (Federal University of São Paulo), Benemérita Portuguese Charity Association, São Paulo-SP, ESHO Hospital Services Company AS, São Paulo, SP and Federal University of São Carlos, São Carlos-SP, from June to December of 2020. This will follow Helsinki recommendations for human protocols. This study was approved by Federal University of São Paulo's Human Research Ethics Committee (process number 4,050,985). The patients who completed the inclusion criteria (table 1) will be invited to participate, and they will receive an Informed Consent Form (ICF).
At least 60 subjects will be included, and they will be equally divided into 4 groups.

Non-intubated COVID-19 group
Men and women (not pregnant) Older than 18 years old Diagnosis of COVID-19 confirmed by Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) Subjects intubated Time between admission and study inclusion ≤ 72h Non-intubated during the monitoring carried out in the study Time between onset symptoms and study inclusion ≤ 14 days No neurological acute disease No cutaneous injury in the head to impossibility the ICP monitoring No cutaneous injury in the head to impossibility the monitoring with the transcranial doppler helmet Patients who have not been submitted to decompressive craniectomy previously.

The ICP monitoring will be performed in a non-invasive way through the cranial deformation method developed by Brain4Care Inc. The selected patients will be monitored until 1h/day for 7 sequential days or even discharge. The clinical outcomes such as ventilatory status will be noted (if the subject is under oxygen supplementation, using non-invasive mechanical ventilation or intubated), the ventilatory parameters during the monitorization will be analyzed in the intubated group (or those from a non-intubated group who was intubated during the seven days of hospitalization) including IFO2, CV, PEEP, driving pressure, and pressure plate as well as ventilatory asynchronies. Some changes in ventilatory parameters during monitorization will be noted. These procedures will be applied to all groups, excepted to the healthy group. This last group will be monitored only once for 30 minutes at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar).
