Tension measurement of pulse pressure of herniation in children

Nine patients were operated on in Department of Neurosurgery in Poznań throughout 1990-1993 because of the insufficient carotid blood circulation. In patients measurements of the pulsation pressure of the carotid artery were carried out with a tensometric sensor of pressure during surgery. Neurological symptoms, EEG, evoked potentials and other examinations were conducted before an after operation and correlated with results of pulsation pressure.
