Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the pressure in the eye of a severely head-injured person correlates with the pressure in the person's skull. This is a prospective study of patients aged 18 and older who have experienced a traumatic closed head injury and are intubated either before or during the time they are in the Emergency Department (ED). Identified patients have an eye pressure measurement performed in the trauma bay by an OSU ED physician not involved in their care. Information about their hospital stay, including the first brain pressure measurement if a such a measuring device is used, will be collected. In addition, the outcome of their hospital stay will be recorded.
