Is Intracranial Pressure Monitoring After Open Cranial Procedures Associated With Outcome?
J Surg Res
January 2025
Division of Trauma and Critical Care, Department of Surgery, Reading Hospital, West Reading, Pennsylvania. Electronic address:
Introduction: It is unclear if intracranial pressure monitoring (ICPM) after open cranial procedures (craniotomy or craniectomy) (OC) for traumatic brain injury is associated with mortality. We hypothesized that ICPM placed early after OC was associated with lower mortality compared to no ICPM or delayed ICPM placement.
Methods: Using 2020-2021 data from the American College of Surgeons Trauma Quality Improvement Program, patients ≥16 y from level 1 and 2 trauma centers who underwent OC were divided into two groups: ICPM placed within 72 h of OC (early) and no ICPM or ICPM placed after 72 h (none/delayed).
