No items found.

Autonomous system for the ambulatory recording of the intracranial pressure of a patient, which system comprises an intracranial pressure sensor which transmits the intracranial pressure signal to a portable apparatus which may control the capture of the signal and may store the latter. The portable apparatus comprises a memory device for storing the intracranial pressure samples, a microcontroller for controlling the intracranial pressure sampling parameters and means for programming said microcontroller. Said parameters are optimized on the basis of experimental results, in accordance with a preset resolution, in order to minimize the power consumption of the system. The system comprises a PC which can be used to process the intracranial pressure samples stored in the memory device of the portable apparatus and can assist with the medical diagnosis of pathologies associated with said recordings.

Sistema autónomo para el registro ambulatorio de la presión intracraneal de un paciente, que comprende un sensor de presión intracraneal que transmite la señal de presión intracraneal a un aparato portátil que puede controlar la captura de la señal y almacenarla. El aparato portátil comprende un dispositivo de memoria para almacenar las muestras de presión intracraneal, un microcontrolador para controlar los parámetros de muestreo de la presión intracraneal y unos medios para programar dicho microcontrolador. Dichos parámetros se optimizan en base a resultados experimentales, de acuerdo con una resolución preestablecida, para minimizar el consumo de energía del sistema. El sistema comprende un PC mediante el cual se pueden procesar las muestras de presión intracraneal almacenadas en el dispositivo de memoria del aparato portátil, y el cual puede proporcionar una ayuda al diagnóstico médico de patologías asociadas a estos registros.
