[Cranial injury in children].

The Authors report personal experience in management of 23 children after severe head injury. All patients were submitted to TC scanning and their performance status was evaluated according to Glasgow Coma Scale (G.C.S.). All children were treated with hyperventilation, steroids, mannitol and, when necessary, Penthobarbital (TPS). Authors present the outcome at a distance of 6 months from trauma's beginning.

[Monitoring of intracranial pressure].

A very small fiberoptic catheter initially developed as an intravascular pressure sensor was incorporated into a system to be used as an intracranial pressure (ICP) monitor. 13 patients with intracranial hypertension have been studied with this probe. The clinical experience confirmed the safety, accuracy and reliability of the device. The monitor has functioned very well, and there have been no complications except for two breakages of optic fiber as a result of nursing manoeuvres. This new device can be placed into the ventricular, subdural and epidural space. Camino System appears to offer advantages over other monitors presently in use.
