Abstract
The Pulse Wave Form (PWF) of intracranial pressure (ICP) has three fairly consistent components [2, 8, 9]. It has been suggested that its shape depends upon the arterial input, the intracranial contents, and the venous outflow [1, 2, 8]. These intracranial hemodynamics may be modified by vascular reactivity and intracranial compliance [1, 8, 9]. The effect of mechanical stress to intracranial hemodynamics on ICP and PWF was studied to clarify the origin of PWF and its clinical significance.
