FDA has cleared a Branchpoint Technologies 510(k) for its Aura ICP Monitoring System, an implantable and wireless intracranial pressure (ICP) sensor that allows mobile ICP monitoring in brain-injured patients. The device enables continuous telemetric monitoring of parenchymal ICP including continuous ICP waveforms, the company says. It notes that intractable high ICP is the most common “terminal event” leading to death in neurosurgical patients.“The association between the severity of intracranial hypertension and poor outcome after severe head injury is well recognized,” Branchpoint says.
