The baseline pressure of intracranial pressure (ICP) sensors can be altered by electrostatic discharges

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The monitoring of intracranial pressure (ICP) has a crucial role in the surveillance of patients with brain injury. During long-term monitoring of ICP, we have seen spontaneous shifts in baseline pressure (ICP sensor zero point), whi...
