    AbstractA wide variety of monitoring devices have been used for intracranial pressure measurement. The aim of this article is to present the most common devices and to assess their accuracy, stability and complications, with reference to current literature. Measurement with an intraventricular catheter remains, the reference method. However new techniques with distal measurement (fiberoptic or strain gauge) seem to be accurate, but have a higher cost. Some practical problems, such as the zero pressure reference level and the side of measurement, are also discussed.
