AbstractLumbar infusion tests (IT) with different infusion rates (0.06 ml/min-1.2 ml/min) were used in order to investigate the intracranial pressure (ICP) and CSF outflow resistance (R) changes. Two groups of animals were studied: control group and animals with an 0.8 ml epidural balloon. In control group (without balloon) significant differences in ICP and R values between the increasing and decreasing IT curve were found. The most pronounced changes were noticed right after the highest infusion rate (40% for ICP value and 49% for R value). The results in the balloon group were very similar and the only difference were delayed ICP and R changes. The results obtained suggest that the determined R values are specific for the applied infusion rate and this phenomenon has to be taken into account in all human studies.
