Clinical Trial: Bedside Ultrasound Measurement of Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter for Detecting Raised Intracranial Pressure

U.S., Sept. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07799714) titled 'Bedside Ultrasound Measurement of Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter for Detecting Raised Intracranial Pressure' on Aug. 30.

Brief Summary: Raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is a serious medical emergency that requires prompt recognition to prevent brain damage. While invasive pressure monitoring and brain CT scans are commonly used, bedside transorbital ultrasonography to measure optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) offers a rapid, non-invasive alternative.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of bedside ultrasound measurement of ONSD in detecting raised ICP in adult patients, using brain CT scan findings as th...
