Description
Summary:[...]intracranial pressure and PbtO2 were continuously monitored to allow timely medical decisions, but measurements were reported hourly into the electronic case report form to facilitate data analysis. [...]the algorithm to correct low PbtO2 was designed to stepwise identify causes of brain hypoxia with or without concomitant high intracranial pressure. [...]despite training of all medical teams, we observed several PbtO2 catheter dysfunctions. [...]a single burr hole can be used to place a multilumen bolt system with both intracranial pressure and PbtO2 probes.
