88 brief papers originating from the twelfth overseas Symposium on Intracranial strain and mind tracking held in August 2004 in Hong Kong current experimental in addition to scientific learn information on invasive and non-invasive intracranial strain and mind biochemistry tracking. The papers have passed through a peer-reviewing and are geared up in 9 sections: ICP administration in head damage, neurochemical tracking, intracranial high blood pressure, neuroimaging, hydrocephalus, medical trails, experimental reports, mind compliance and biophysics.

Sample text

In patients who died compared to those who survived there pressurereactivity was worse (0:2 G 0:26 versus 0:05 G 0:18, p < 0:0004). The magnitude of slow ICP waves was lower (0:64 G 0:31 mmHg versus 0:855 G 0:41, p < 0:00007) – see Fig. 1. There was a significant correlation between PRx, ICP, CPP and GOS, however, these parameters were powerful for di¤erentiating between non-survivors and survivors and less so for discriminating between favourable and unfavourable outcome. The only exception is the magnitude of slow waves that was able to separate the group of severely disabled patients from the group with favourable outcome (p < 0:03).
