Development of a Novel Autonomous Non-Invasive Absolute Intracranial Pressure Measurement Device Based on Ultrasound Doppler Technology (BRAINSAFE II)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

The BrainSafe II project builds upon a successful Research for the Benefit of SMEs project and will deliver an innovative technology for the autonomous, calibration free, non-invasive, rapid, accurate and precise absolute intracranial pressure (aICP) determination. The resultant device will exhibit absolute intracranial pressure measurement to within SD = ± 2,5 mmHg. The target time for the whole ...

Evidence based Diagnostic and Treatment Planning Solution for Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIcare)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2014,

Description Traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when a sudden trauma causes damage to the brain – it is a major health problem and the most common cause of permanent disability in people under the age of 40 years. Yearly cost from TBI in Europe exceeds 100 billion euros. Recent statistics show a steep increase in the incidence of TBIs, with ...

Innovative Intracranial Pressure and Volume Wave Monitoring System (DynICP)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2013,

In DynICP, we propose to develop an advanced, portable prototype of a non-invasive intracranial dynamic pressure (dynamic ICP) diagnosing and monitoring device which can be used at hospitals, point of care as well as at home. This device will consist of a wearable head gear capable of precise positioning of two ultrasonic transducers, software and hardware for dynamic ICP analysis and data communi ...

Development of a new, non invasive absolute Intracranial Pressure (aICP) measurement device based on ultrasound and Doppler technologies (BrainSafe)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2011,

Only invasive technologies only for diagnostics of Intracranial Pressure (ICP) for patients with severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) are available today. The procedure requires neurosurgeon to place the catheter inside the patient´s skull that exposes the patients to the risk of infection (5%), bleeding, leak of fluids or loss of other body tissue, pain, hyperthermia as well as risks related to an ...

Advanced Arterial Hypotension Adverse Event prediction through a Novel Bayesian Neural Network (AVERT-IT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2011,

Hypotension (sub-normal blood pressure) adverse events (AE's) occur commonly in patients managed in intensive care and high dependency units. Health care technology which could reduce the burden of these events by as little as ten percent would equate to at least five billion Euros p.a. saved by European healthcare organisations for use in other treatment regimensThe AVERT-IT project will create ...
