ICP devices are used to measure the pressure within the skull caused by accidents, injuries, and trauma. The ICP monitoring also has post-operative and diagnostic applications for patients suffering from cranial damage caused due to stroke, hydrocephalus, or other reasons. ICP devices help surgeons save the lives of patients suffering from these injuries with the help of proper treatment and timely intervention. Generally, there are two types of ICP monitors: one provides ICP data, whereas the other is capable of concurrent cerebrospinal fluid drainage.
