Intracranial pressure in patients with papilloedema

ConclusionsA 24‐hour ICP of 10 mmHg or more is a good predictor for papilloedema and reflects a pathological threshold. The range varied widely suggesting papilloedema can occur at even lower pressures. These results are consistent with emerging evidence suggest that pathologically “high” 24 hours ICP is lower than previously quoted.
