Accuracy of Noninvasive Intraocular Pressure or Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter Measurements for Predicting Elevated Intracranial Pressure in Cryptococcal Meningitis
BACKGROUND: Cryptococcal meningitis is associated with increased intracranial pressure (ICP). Therapeutic lumbar puncture (LP) is recommended when the initial ICP is >250 mm H(2)O, yet the availability of manometers in Africa is limited and not always used where available. We assessed whether in...
