Abstract

Trauma of the head is the leading cause of death. Monitoring of intracranial pressure (ICP) by non-invasive methods is practiced with the use of bedside ocular ultrasound. Objective: to assess the usage of the bedside ultrasound optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) as a guiding tool for elevated ICP to limit using mannitol to patients currently having elevated ICP
