Further studies with a noninvasive method of intracranial pressure estimation.
A linear relationship between elevated intracranial pressure in patients with hydrocephalus and with cerebral edema and a latency shift of the N2 wave of the flash-evoked cortical potential is demonstrated. Although the relationship is good at pressures of 200 to 300 mm H2O, it is excellent at pressures above 300 mm H2O. This relationship establishes a reliable noninvasive method of estimating intracranial pressure.
