| Description | Idiopathic intracranial hypertension is a disorder that results from an increase of intracranial pressure with unknown cause. A single measurement of intracranial pressure only provides data at one given point in time. Therefore, telemetrie monitoring of intracranial pressure was performed in a patient with fluctuating headache and significantly impaired vision, which together accounted for 226.2 hours of recording during normal daily activities. Elevated intracranial pressure was not found during monitoring, so we did not indicate the patient for shunt surgery. |
