Clinical Trial Summary

Invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is highly effective, but involves risks. HS-1000 measures ICP non-invasively by assessing the acoustic properties of the patient's head. HS-1000 device, a proprietary new non-invasive ICP monitor, is expected to safely and accurately monitor ICP with minimal discomfort to patients, and provide information about normal or elevated ICP levels to the physicians.

The study objective is to compare the accuracy and safety profile of HS-1000, a non-invasive ICP monitor, to invasive ICP monitoring via an external ventricular drain (EVD)

Study Design

Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Screening


Related Conditions & MeSH terms

  • Presence of High Intracranial Pressure

Intervention

Device:
EVD
ICP monitoring will be done in parallel for both HS-1000 and ICP monitoring via an EVD device (per clinical protocol without any change in the patient's management). HS-1000 ICP monitoring intervals will last from 30 minutes to 6 hours, continuously depending on the patient's clinical condition. Each such interval may occur three times a day or more depending on the clinical condition of the patient.
