Indirect assessment of dynamic intracranial compliance in TBI patients using standard-of-care monitoring appears feasible and suggests a prolonged period of derangement out to 5 days post-injury. Further study is ongoing to determine if the PCI-a new physiologic index, complements utility of ICP and/or CPP in guiding management of patients with severe TBI.
