Abstract

Biophysical aspects and the method of the Computerized Infusion Test (CIT) developed in the Neurosurgical Clinic of the Medical Research Center, Polish Academy of Sciences, are presented. The CIT is a development of classical methods of estimating the cerebrospinal fluid outflow resistance. It is based on a clinically tested mathematical model of the intracranial pressure-volume compensating mechanisms. The CIT enables the etrapolation of the infusion curve in cases when it is impossible to reach the upper steady during the constant infusion test because of the ICP exceeding values estimated as being critical.
