<p>Method and apparatus for noninvasive monitoring of the intracranial pressure of mammals. The method preferably consists of occluding the jugular vein (20) at a selected location so as to interrupt the flow of blood temporarily and then determining the rate of change of blood flow within the jugular vein upstream of such location over a predetermined period of time following its occlusion. Means (27) controlled by the operation of a computer (73) may be utilized for automatically occluding the jugular and for inducing detectable electrical signals representative of the flow of blood within the jugular. </p> |
