Changes in intracranial pressure and cerebral autoregulation in patients with severe traumatic brain injury.

Background: Impaired cerebral autoregulation is frequent after severe traumatic head injury. This could result in intracranial pressure fluctuating passively with the mean arterial pressure.

Objective: This study examines the influence of autoregulation on the amplitude and direction of changes in intracranial pressure in patients with severe head injuries during the management of cerebral perfusion pressure.
