KEYWORDS Basic concepts about brain pathophysiology and intracranial pressure monitoring
Brain
pathophysiology; Abstract
Cerebrospinal fluid; Introduction: Many brain processes that cause death are mediated by intracranial hypertension
Monitoring; (ICH). The natural course of this condition inevitably leads to brain death. The objective of this
Intracranial pressure study is to carry out a systematic review of cerebral pathophysiology and intracranial pressure
(ICP) monitoring.
Development: Studying, monitoring, and recording ICP waves provide data about the presence
of different processes that develop with ICH.
