Transcranial Doppler sonography is a noninvasive method of obtaining information about changes in cerebral hemodynamics and intracranial pressure. After severe head injuries the development of brain swelling and brain edema can be assessed and the efficacy of treatment monitored. Development of seve

Monitoring of intracranial pressure (ICP) in acute liver failure (ALF) is controversial as a result of the reported complication risk (approximately 20%) and limited therapeutic options for intracranial hypertension. Using prospectively collected information from 332 patients with ALF and severe enc
Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) leads to loss of cerebral perfusion, cerebral herniation, and irreversible brain damage in patients with acute liver failure (ALF). Conventional techniques for monitoring ICP can be complicated by hemorrhage and infection. Transcranial doppler ultrasonography (TC
