Abstract
Fluctuations of arterial blood pressure (ABP) almost always produce a respo nse in intracranial pressure (ICF). However, the time-relationship between the ABP and ICP waveforms is complex and involves a variety of mechanisms, including those responsible for regulation of cerebrovascular tone and veno us blood outflow through collapsible cortical and bridging veins.
