Intracranial pressure monitoring: why monitor?

Evidence suggests that the mortality and morbidity of acquired brain injury could be reduced if clinicians used an aggressive intracranial pressure guided approach to care.

This article discusses the risks and benefits of intracranial pressure monitoring and the current state of evidence of why patients should be monitored.
